Mission Monday #16--Mix N Match
Yeah, I know last Mission Monday I said it would be the last one for a while, but that was because I was planning to get my camera cleaned and thought I wouldn't have it for a while. I decided to wait until after the holidays because Colorado Fashion Week is coming up (buy your tickets here)! Mark your calendars!
Next week we are going to do something ever so true to my sartorial heart--pattern mixing! I have so much enthusiasm for this Mission Week because there is little I enjoy more than the joy of two lovely prints coming together as one.
Speaking of two awesome seemingly totally different things coming together--guess what I did this weekend? I went to a concert with a girlfriend. Guess who it was? Snoop Dogg . . . and Dave Matthews Band. Same concert. In fact, Snoop was the opening act!
We got the tickets last minute from a friend and we were both looking it up to make sure it was legit. Really? Snoop and DMB? Is this for real? And why is Snoop the opening act?
Well, after much consideration, I realized that of course Snoop would be the opening act in Colorado. Why? Because recreational smoking of Mary Jane is legal in Colorado. So what better opportunity would there be for Snoop to get paid for putting on a concert wherein he's on stage for 45 minutes and then hops on over to ye ole dispensary and smoke out for the rest of the evening? Well played Snoop.
Yep. Colorado. We might not have beaches, we might not have much in the way of classic tourist attractions--no Disneyland or Sea World--and we may not have a decent mall anywhere north of Denver. But pot? Yeah, we got that.

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
