what do you get when you mix stripes, polka dots & animal print?

Dress/Shoes: Target, Shirt: F21, Tights: Kohl's

To answer my question (the title)... you get this outfit. I have been outfit stalking this girl I see all the time. She puts the most random things together and makes it look simply adorable. This is my new goal. To throw whatever I feel like on and get away with it. 

Can I do it? We shall see. This outfit isn't very daring or crazy by any means but I do think it is a little different. A great start perhaps? I have learned that there doesn't have to be rhyme or reason to anything. It can flow and not be matchy matchy. 

Hope you all have a fantastic weekend. See you again on Monday!

XO.
