I was in a festive mood when I wore this. Earlier that day, I had ooh-ed and aah-ed at the sight of Holt Renfrew's holiday displays, had been handed free candy canes at Banana Republic, and had sung along to Celine Dion's Christmas CD, These Are The Special Times. Ok, that last part is a lie - I haven't whipped that baby out since 2000 or 2001 or 2005. The point is, I was craving red and stripes and although I would've preferred to become a human candy cane, this is the best I came up with using my 30 for 30 selections. More costume-y looks shall be unleashed once this challenge is over - the wilder garb resides in the back of my closet, growling for attention.

Ah! I can't believe I stumbled across your blog. You look adorable. I am also doing the 30x30 challenge on my pseudonymous blog, but you know me as your former roommate 2nd semester freshman year.

That scarf looks amazing! This blog called Second Skin wears scars as kind of these bandana style shirts and I always love it. You're so tiny you could totally pull it off too.

Oh wow, I really love this look. Actually I've looked through some of your older blog posts and like everything! Love that patterned skirt that you psted before this one. I'm not usually jealous of someone else's closet, but I totally am! I just started following your blog now, I am really excited to see what else you come up with :0)
How clever to use that scarf that way!
The scarf looks great with this outfit as a belt!
