Mirror Image

I realize that this top is actually a "grid" or "windowpane" print. So, you are probably scratching your head wondering why the title of this post is called Mirror Image.

I am a complete copy cat, mirroring/recreating this outfit that Annie, one of my favorite style bloggers and friends, posted last week. I told her in my comment that I was going to replicate, pin and style it on my blog. I stick to my promises. So maybe we chose different bags, boot colors and I opted out when it came to a necklace, but I think we could pretty much be identical twins. 

This is what I love about being a blogger, reading blogs and being part of the blogging community. We inspire one another whether it's fashion, cooking, DIY or family related. We all feed off of one another, push ourselves to think outside of the box and get different views and ideas; ones we would not have thought of on our own.

I had everything you see in this post hanging in my closet. Would I have ever put all the pieces together on my own? Probably not. But the minute I saw Annie's post, I fell in love. It's a little daring and maybe not for everyone's taste, but I love it.

Who has inspired you in the blogging world lately? Go ahead and give them a shout in the comments below. Maybe I will copy them too.
