SUMMER BLACK-OUT: Days 1 & 2

The Summer Black-Out Challenge was Sal's brainchild.  The world will be a more colorful place this week, as lots of people are participating.  No black clothing from Monday, June 7, to Monday, June 14. 

Sal further clarifies the rules thusly:

1. Black shoes, accessories, and jewelry are fine.
   
2. Workout/gym duds get a pass.
   
3. Black can be IN patterns but cannot be the BACKGROUND of a pattern.

As for me, well...two days in and so far, so good! 

 

Day 1.  I had a doctor appointment in the middle of the day, so this outfit was pretty casual.  The top and pants are both from Target.  The necklace I made from seed beads and gemstone chips.  The scarf I bought at a thrift store on the way home from the doctor. :)

Day 2.  This brown top started life as a dress that I found at a thrift store.  I cut off the skirt part of it, which looked stupid on me, and refashioned it into a top.  I sewed the skirt from my tried-and-true pattern McCall's 4783.  The necklace I made from various shell and crystal beads.  You can't see my shoes much here, but they're brown sandals I've had for years.  I think they came from Target.

Love 'em both, lady! That printed headscarf is just darling.
