Be a Clown

Jacket, NY & Co. Blouse, Forever 21. Skirt, Moda International. Tights, Simply Vera. Peeptoes, Wet Seal. Faux-feather earrings. Ali’s Boutique.



A closer shot of the earrings and a truer representation of today’s colors.

These have been deemed my “clown shoes” by past commenters. If you can’t beat ‘em, join ‘em, and just “be a clown.”



Truthfully, clowns kind of scare me, but I do know two people who’ve been to clown school. As long as I don’t have to face them in their rubber noses and giant shoes, I’m okay.

I'm not quite sure why people think those are clown shoes, but okay. People are kinda weird.
I love these blue/green colors on you - I wore the colors yesterday before I even knew this was theme week!
And the earrings are gorgeous!

I love these colours on you! The shoes are a shade of green that I associate with the 80s, but you make them work.

I love these shoes...if someone wants to call them clown shoes, then they can send me to the Barnum Brothers....

I love those peacock feather earrings. They're perfect with this ensemble.

Does that green blouse have seen-through cut-outs right across the chest? They look DANGEROUS.

Cat - the blouse is sheer beneath the bib. I usually wear a tank underneath but I thought the jacket would cover the sheer bits today.

Cute outfit, I love your shoes! Green is such a cheerful color.

I love this outfit! This theme week is already shaping up to be amazing.

I always feel compelled to say this about outfits I don't like as much:

I make no claim to know anything about fashion.

But to me, those look like items that while each individually good, don't quite go together.

On the other hand, I love the shoes, so go figure...

I completely love the fact that you know two people who have been to clown school!! That's awesome, i wish i knew people who had been to clown school, great outfit by the way :)

I like the outfit a lot, but I'm just not a fan at all of black sheer hose. And isn't it way too cold to be wearing open toe shoes? I love the color of the shoes, but maybe the reason people see them as clownish is the platform? Great color combo and I LOVE the peacock earrings. You inspired me to find my own pair :)

Sara -

The hose are actually gray fishnet - but they DO look like sheer black in the photos.

I wear socks, pants, and galoshes outside: http://whatiwore2day.blogspot.com/2008/10/bus-bundling.html
