Day 279
This day belongs to margyartgrrl.

"Art connects people in unexpected places and these shared experiences lead to new friends and understanding each other in new ways. Thanks to UP for showing and sharing the art of dress(ing)."

What’s this?

During Sheena’s year-long challenge, we made 365 limited edition copies of the little black dress. U.P friends who purchased a dress could ‘own’ a day from Sheena’s dailies, as a way to memorialize their support. The funds raised from dress sales were also put towards supporting the kids :)

Last of the Mohair-cans

Mohair sweater donated by Cat. Floral tie packaging from Hartefactos repurposed as a collar cuff, held together with a vintage brooch. Striped leggings from Sockdreams worn over ankle stripe tights also donated by Cat and platforms donated by Tara St. James.

Remember when big brother Sean ran the NY marathon for the U.P? This post is long overdue, but here’s the story of Sean’s fascinating run in his own words.

Your sweater look rediculously coZy.
Did you know that Native American reserves are not subject to all US taxation. For example sales tax is not charges in most reserves, This results in things such as gas (sometimes 50 cents a gallon cheaper) and cigerettes become so muc less expensive that you can now buy them from Native American reseves online to save some dough.
Its true, man.

I LOVE this! the turquoise is exquisite and I love the triple layering at the arm. I am jealous of how large your sock wardrobe alone is!

Jealous of your sweater! And I covet your tights/leggings/sock collection. You could auction the leg wear off next and I’d be all over that like stripes on stripes.

The colour, length and everything about the sweater is just so refreshing! The white shoes and awesome tights absolutely rock the look!

Love these colors! They remind me of a cool spring brook running through a newly awakened forest.

Argh! you have been burning the candle at both ends to come up with some of your recent titles. Nice to see a few old favourites, as well as the cute jumper; what a great match to the florals in the collar.

Oooh! Cute! I love that sweater on you. I’m allergic to mohair, but you are looking excellent in it. I especially love the shoes with this.

This is the ultimate good girl outfit. I think you’re wearing literal goody two-shoes!!! It’s cute beyond all belief! Thanks for answering my question by the way, because I’ve been a fan for such a long time. It’s cool that you’re going to auction for Akanksha, and I look forward to seeing the results. Oh, and if maybe you wake up and hate that sweater for some reason, I’d willingly take it off your hands ;).

GREAT outfit – luv the color and stripes – you look smashing!

Oh my, one of my favorites in recent weeks. Is it me, or are we fading into a little gray dress? Maybe the gray legging stripes just dampen the black a bit. Anyways, fading’s just another form of versatility if it ever comes to that, right? I’m all for scruffy chic.

Love these colors, Sheena! They are very calming on a winter’s day, and as usual, you make it all work!

I love this combo. It makes me warm and fuzzy. I just want to get a mug of hot chocolate and a good book and hid from the cold here in Canada.

Genius! Using the gorgeous packaging ala hartefactos as a collar. Perfectly compliments the palette of Cat’s sweater. Lovin the stripe-on-stripe as well, you mish-mashed in the best way today. o:)

Eithne tagged this Baloons

Day 279. Little black dress, just follow the baloons 🙂

Seriously, I don’t think there was one outfit that I thought bad – some are better, some are good enough, some are stunning, a couple totally blew me away – but all are *good*, regardless to whether someone likes them or would or wouldn’t wear them.

But every once in a while, after a string of browns and mustards and red-and-blue combos, the LBD gets treated to the colours it’s screaming to be paired with. And always just when I think the dress has grown tired of being worn. If that’s not orange baloons then i don’t know what is. 🙂

p.s. It’s very admirable that your brother took the time to run the marathon.

Those tights and shoes are so cute. Not sure about the top and bottom halves going together- they’re cute separately, but… to me, they don’t match.

What a great pulled-together look – the collar cuff adds just the right touch, esp. with the brooch. The shoes are awesome!
