Style Me for South Africa Winner

Thursday, February 2, 2012

Sweater:  Anthro Four Petals
Skirt:  Forever 21
Shoes:  Seychelles Investigate
Jacket: LOFT
Bag:  FOSSIL

THE WINNER 
IS
JOANNA NEWTON!

I loved the outfit Joanna came up with because I've been dying to feature the Four Petals sweater on zee blog, but for whatever reason have never gotten around to it.  She was the first to style it for the contest and I love the navy and gold combo with the shock of pink zipper.  
I had so much fun looking through the looks you all came up with, so thanks to everyone who participated. 
I wanted to blog regularly from South Africa, but we were working in a remote, farming community several hours south of Johannesburg with no internet access.  I wrote each day so I wouldn't forget the details and plan on sharing the details and pictures from my trip with you next week.  Until then...

I. Am. So. Excited.  
In 10 days, husbie and I will be leaving on a jet-plane to Johannesburg, South Africa for a two-week mission trip.  This is gonna be a work trip (think painting and repairs), however, I'm sure I'll find a couple occasions to dress up. (I can't totally abandon my girly side, can I?) It's summer over there, but the local missionary tells us it's quite cool in the morning and evening, so I'm thinking layers might be a good way to go.  However, I'm only allowed one 50 lb. bag...EEK! 
That's where you come in.  I need your help to plan several outfits around a few pieces to save on space. 
What I plan to take (besides grungy work clothes):

  • Three skirts
  • Four shirts
  • One dress
  • Three cardigans
  • One jacket
  • ONLY three pairs of shoes, and nothin' fancy, just comfy ones...(breathe, Kristina. Just breathe...you can do this.)
Below is an outfit builder.  Put a look together for me, why don'tcha?


The creator of the outfit I wear in South Africa 
and feature here on the blog the first week of February 
will win a $25 giftcard to Anthropologie!  

Yup.  I need your help that much.  
Name your look using your email address so I can contact the winner!

Oh, and one more thing.  What's your favorite traveling music?  I'm looking for some new music to download for the trip.  Got any suggestions?  Thanks, mah dears!
