As you may know, I’m participating in an Instagram October fashion theme challenge this month. Each day has a different theme for you to interpret, and you can see the calendar with the themes by clicking here. I love these fashion challenges because I’m pushed to wear items that have been seriously neglected for no good reason, and I find inspiration through other participants to try new things with my outfits and styling. You can see my outfit choices from the beginning of the month, including my new fur vest, fan-favorite ‘Holy Chic’ tee, and classic plaid shirt, to name a few, by clicking here.

This post features the following themes: deep pockets, finest fringe, darkest florals, we wear pink, sweater weather, bucket bags and crossbodies, and blanket scarves. On blanket scarf day, I attended my friend’s lovely baby shower first, then got creative with the theme and just snuggled up with my soft plaid blanket. I also found a perfect use for my new elephant dish, as part of my new coffee table tray – a great size for my rings!
