Crossroads

Hi Loves! So before I post a look to the blog, I like to send the pics to see what my Fiance thinks, and for this look, our conversation went a little something like this:
Me: What do you think about this look for the blog babe?
Him: Ummmm…it’s kinda doin a lot
Me: What?!? I love it! What do you mean?
Him: Really? Ok! I mean there’s just a lot going on…with the blue and black and white
Me:  It’s cream and black! and it’s not blue and chambray!
Him: Well it looks like blue, black, and white to me, it’s just kinda busy. But the girl wearing it is beautiful (good save! hahah!)
Me: Well I love it and you don’t like it, so looks like we’re at a Crossroads!! hahaha!
Well now y’all know, J doesn’t always love every look I post here! lol! (what does he know anyway? :P) Do you and your significant other every disagree about what’s stylish and what’s not?? Please share your story with me in the comments! I’d love to hear it!

    You look awesome. There is a lot going on, but you really pull it all together and make it work. My husband often looks at some of my outfits and thinks they are a bit crazy, but I just wear what I love and makes me feel good. And like your fiance, he always thinks the woman wearing it is beautiful, even if he hates the outfit!

    ahahaha My husband has said that to me about once or twice! However, when I tell him the same thing I make sure he changes immediately!

    The outfit is very busy but well thought out. My husband tells me the same thing…I usually just smile, nod and do what I want anyway. Occasionally he will give a good suggestion that impacts my outfit choice!

    First off, you look so cute, as always 🙂 I love the safari look you've got going on.

    Secondly, I have definitely had similar conversations with my husband. I always ask his opinion (he has great taste)and most of the time he likes what I wear. Every once in a while, when he doesn't like it, I'm confused about whether his opinion or mine is right. Honestly, I usually go with mine 🙂

      Thanks Ashley! You always get where im going with looks! I promise i almost named this post Safari! I agree with you, my fiance has great taste and it sometimes does get confusing because I almost second guessed sharing this look but i HAD to go with mine 🙂

    Figure women understand style more than men do, so I never mind much when my BF doesn't quite understand an outfit I am wearing, hehe.

  • More ideas on how to wear my Old Navy cargo skirt? Yes, please! 🙂

    Omg, the conversation between you and your fiance TOTALLY reminds me of my own conversations with my husband. I've learned now that when he doesn't like what I'm wearing, chance are I'm wearing something totally awesome. Guys just don't get it..lol. I LOVE your outfit here, so bright and happy and chic! And that skirt is gorgeous.

    Thanks for visiting my blog and for your nice comments! Following you on GFC now. 🙂

    I love this look! My BF and I always disagree on style and he has actually agreed with me on something recently, "The weirder the better!"
