Scarves *H it Up!*

[papertiger]

Haven't had an H it Up in a bit....but I found this crazy hot pink shirt at a thrift store and had to have it.... ... to see if I could push the sartorial boundaries and wear it without looking like a Texessive Rodeo Cowgirl. That's a real danger since I live in Texas.

So, no to cowboy boots, no to paired with denim, and no dangerously shaped hats....Instead- a very modern Baobab scarf, skinny urban sweats and grey combat boots with a leather jacket.

Pre H. Yeah....it's got rhinestone snaps AND embroidery on it.... which I am alternately attracted to and frightened of living where I do...

Feeling a little more urban with this now....

Love how BC makes your shirt look almost muted

So true!

Fantastic look!

Thank you Cookie! I'd feel a little less conspicuous in the Cowgirl shirt if it didn't have the embroidery...ok...and the super sparkly snaps too.... but as papertiger said....Baobab Cat kind of makes it look toned down.

ETa- I've already hand washed it and plan on wearing it again this week.... Wonder what my friends will think??? Everyone knows I have some rather odd finds in the clothing department....

What an amazing transformation bunnycat...I love it, and that Baobab is so versatile isn't it?

It is! (And having kitty on the shoulder all the time is a bit like a security blanket. meow....)

This looks great and you have definitely taken the cowgirl out of this shirt.

Thanks Maedi! I'll put some yee-haw back in it for Halloween.

This is so elegant and so you. Your editing is always spot on. Never too much never too little.

My god..what a transformation when tied! I wouldn’t have given this a second look flat. Wonderful! Thank you for posting. I would never have found the image of this version myself.

Stunning! I also would never have picked that scarf if I saw it flat, but it's so beautiful and elegant on you. Please post more pics of your outfits!!!

I love seeing everyone's pics here - it inspires me to make a marginal effort instead of just throwing things on.

I don't care if none of the prints or patterns match today. It is rainy and cold in Seattle.
