Inspired by Paula of Dimples on my What
I started reading Paula’s blog a year and a half ago, I think. I love to follow different bloggers not only for their sense of style (which she has therefore my inspiration for today’s outfit) but also for inspiration in other areas of life. Paula is a wife, a mother, and a grandmother and shares fashion tips for full figured women as well as shares personal inspiration. One of my favorite post was Overcome the Dark, Keep the Light on which something I needed to read at the time. She reminds me that I should draw strength from the scriptures (which is a habit I need to get back into).
Paula shared this outfit last week on her Instagram and when I saw it, I was inspired to copy it for a blog post. Paula shared how she sometimes we need to shut that inner mean voice girl and I am glad she did because I love her outfit and her picture! I saw inspiration and beauty! I have had several conversations lately about our self criticism and I am glad that we have a community of bloggers and readers that support each other and inspire each other.
As soon as I saw her outfit, I mentally shopped my closet for my camo joggers, orange rust tee and hat.
This top is several years old from Old Navy and I enjoy the fun sleeves. I usually wear it with a fitted bottom or I knot it.
My Jensen Prime camo joggers are now 50% off but only are in size 25.
I’ve shared my Amazon hat many times and I wear it every single day. The hat is around $16 or a little more depending on the vendor.
Last are my new sandals from Target. I bought these this week as I have been looking for a pair a yellow sandals and just had to throw away a very old pair of cute striped black and white sandals. I like that these sandals are a wedge but not a heel so I will wear them very often. They are comfortable and true to size. I usually wear either a size 6.5 or 7 and I got these in size 6.5.
This was a fun look and pose to copy! Love it when I can shop my closet and create a new to me outfit and be inspired by someone else’s great style!

They are actually pretty comfortable! And I love the style. I think I need to adjust the strap around one ankle but otherwise I really like them.

Thanks, Shauna! It is neat to find other bloggers you haven’t heard of.

It’s such a cute look on both of you! I *love* those yellow sandals, they’re absolutely adorable. I’m terrible at wearing heels and feel like that can limit cute footwear, so those are perfect!

I can only do wedges or I will twist my ankle. And these are low enough to be really comfy.

I get so much inspiration from other bloggers! I love your recreation! Such a fun summer look!

I have to take notes usually when I come accross something I want to recreate otherwise I forget!
Ellibelle
You both look gorgeous and loving the pose! How fun that you found similar pieces in your closet to copy her look!

I know! It was really easy to put together and I hadn’t worn the pieces together: great inspiration!
Kathrine Eldridge
Love the inspiration look and your look as well! I have camo joggers that I wear non-stop. I adore those yellow sandals too!

I have been wearing these joggers a lot! Definitely a good buy and I have already worn the sandals 3 times!

This was such a cute combo to copy. Camo and rust are classics together. I agree Paula is a gifted writer, I really enjoy her humor, too.
mimifce
Yes! I love reading her posts. And orange/rust and camo is just a great combo!
Joanne
Cute look and pose to take inspiration from. You just have me an idea.. I have a few shirts that I don’t wear often because I feel like they are baggy and unflattering but I never think to simply knot the bottom.
mimifce
Yes! This one definitely is a little too flowy on me and knotting it really helps!
Lizzie
Ahhhh! You look so adorable! I am in love with those shoes!

The shoes are winners! There is a reason I love yellow: it brightens everything.

I always love getting style inspiration from other style bloggers too. This is a great look, and I love it on both of you. Those camo pants are great!
mimifce
Yes the camo pants were such a good purchase! I reach for them often.
Mica
I love the orange and green combo with the rust and camo! You both look so good in it, it’s perfect for summer! You did a really good job of recreating this outfit 🙂
Hope your week is going well 🙂 It’s turned into a rainy one here!

Week is going pretty well! Fairly quiet and relaxing.

I love that you recreated Paula’s look! I always forget how much I love a bright punch of color with my camo. Thanks for the reminder. You were my Style Six pick of the week!
mimifce
Thanks, Shelly! It’s always an honor to be picked. I had forgotten too so when I saw her insta picture, I just had to copy it!
