Western Flair

In the midst of trying to finish my design jobs and preparing for my trip to New York, I feel like my mind is always somewhere else and I haven't been able to dress thoughtfully but somehow this outfit just came together while I was brushing my teeth. 
I always get asked whether I plan my outfits ahead of time and how I put them together. Truth be told, I hardly ever plan my outfits ahead except on special occasions. I'm really the go-with-the-flow kinda girl and I dress depending on my mood that morning (or evening.) Most of the time, my eyes will be drawn to a particular item (in this case, the lace top and the new boots) so I styled my outfit around these two items.

How do you guys decide what to wear? Do you simply plan ahead the night before or just decide that morning?

Btw, I gasped when I saw these Isabel Marant inspired Western boots from Zara! I just got these about a week ago so your local Zara should probably still have them.

Love this lace top! Very cute! And I sometimes plan ahead if I am going somewhere special, but most of the time I am the same as you, I just put what I want to put on in the morning and go from there!

Love your boots! You look great with this outfit

Sincerely,

Digging the slightly western thing going on, those boots are FIERCE!! Loving the lace too!!

I generally tend to make it up as I go along, unless there is a particular piece that I really want to wear then I'll work everything else around that.

I'm pretty much the same way getting dressed - I hardly ever plan ahead, but find myself putting together outfits around an item or two. Love this lace top!

I don't really plan my outfits, I usually just choose one piece depending on my mood and make everything else work around it.

I'm the same way and just dress when the day comes depending on how I feel and what I want to wear haha. great look, love how you always mix and match pieces together.

I usually have a vague idea of outfits I want to put together - like pieces I want to match with x or y, usually based on new additions to my wardrobe.

But in reality, I live in Ireland so what I wear largely depends on how heavily it's raining on any given day!

The tweed blazer is perfect with the shorts and top because it's in the same colour scheme, I love it! Not a huge fan of the boots but they look stunning anyway!

Unless I' going somewhere important or getting up early, I always prepare my outfit in the morning, I just put things together, and job done !

Pretty outfit! Love the arm candy. :)

If I plan an outfit in advance it doesn't look the same the next day and I have to go with something else. Love the boots.
