Petite Fashion Challenge #17: Candy Colorized


Sew Petite Gal is hosting the #17 Petite Fashion Challenge! 



The Challenge: Candy Colorized
Take a bowl full of colorful candies (M&Ms, Jolly Ranchers, jelly beans, etc.), close your eyes, and draw 2-3 pieces.  Now use those colors (+ a neutral of your choosing) to form the basis for your ensemble.






This challenge hits close to home because I LOVE candy, and my friends and family can attest to that. For this challenge, I decided to pick 2 colors from a bowl filled with my favorite, Sour Patch Kids!! 






I ended up grabbing an orange (boo!) sour patch kid and a green (yay!) sour patch kid. Personally, I think the orange sour patch kid is the worst flavor of the bunch, but I do love all of them, regardless. I just usually end up eating the orange ones last.



Dress: Foreve21 Button Tap Dress with Belt in Navy Size SP (Similar)
NecklaceAmrita Singh Montauk Necklace in Coral Haze (Similar) 
Watch: MICHAEL Michael Kors Mini Runway 33mm (Here)
Earrings: Amrita Singh Ashanti Earrings (Similar)
Shoes: Ugg Sandals (Similar)
Lipstick: Revlon Orange Flip (Here)




Green
I purchased this green dress awhile ago, when I had hoped to wear it for the Spring season in New York City. Unfortunately, Spring never really came, but it's a good thing Summer comes right after Spring.


Orange
Unfortunately, the color orange is not a big color in my wardrobe, so I managed to add some orange with my Amrita Sighn necklace and my Revlon Orange Flip lipstick.

Such a beautiful green color on you! The orange toned lipstick is a great way to bring it into the ensemble :)

It was such a fun challenge. Love your outfit and cute strappy sandals. I didn't know Ugg makes sandals.

Lol @ the boo and yay. I started off with sour patch kids too but they ended up in my belly too quickly.
The orange lip looks great on you. I think an orange dress would look good too, no?

It's nice to see mint-green is everywhere lately and I feel like left behind cause I never include this color in my wardrobe and now I'm thinking to get one.
You're so lovely :) the hidden orange still looks sweet ^^

Looove sour kids! You know I'm surprised how well green and orange go together - you look great!

Kathleen Lisson said...

This shade of blue/green looks great on you.

Petite Therapy said...

Thanks roey! Yes, I agree. Sour patch kids should not be wasted!

I didn't know Uggs made sandals until I visited the outlet store in Orlando. It was a pleasant surprise! They are the most comfortable wedges I have ever worn!

Funny thing is I tried on an orange tunic today!
check out my instagram . It does look good, but it's such a bold color! I bought the purple and orange one and chose to decide which one to keep later.

Petite Therapy said...

Now's your chance to add it! Try starting out with a mint green top.

Petite Therapy said...

lol I only do that at parties when there's a bunch in a bowl.

SS said...

That green looks great on you! Love you added some orange- such a beautiful necklace!

Vicky said...

Great color on you.

I love sour patch kids. Ok now I want some. =) Orange is definitely one of the colors I stay away from too. The orange necklace and lip color looks great with the dress.
