Inspired

The first fashion blog I started reading regularly was Kendi Everyday. I stumbled upon it when I was wedding planning. My friend sent me a whole bunch of wedding-related blog links and one of those bloggers referenced another Kendi blog - Better Off Wed. I thought she was sarcastic and hilarious and couldn't get enough of her and her blog. Then I noticed she had another blog, Kendi Everyday. I clicked on the link to this blog and my life changed in an instant. I know that sounds dramatic, but it's true. I started reading her blog and began really evaluating my closet, shopping for things that fit in with things I already owned, and even participated in my first 30 for 30 this past winter. I was also exposed to the world of blogging for the first time and started signing up for, and following other blogs (as you can see from my "Daily Reads" list). Still, it all started with Kendi, so it only seems appropriate for today's ABC Style Challenge of I for Inspired By that I style my outfit based on a past Kendi look.

It was honestly hard to choose which look I wanted to recreate. I love so many, but I ended up deciding on this Kendi creation, only instead of a cute polka-dotted blouse, I added a hair elastic.
