circular logic

Eons ago, I went balls to the wall with my penchant for limiting ensembles to a single print—stripes, fauna, space-dye and plaid all got their moment in the spotlight. It's only now, though, that I have enough polka dotted pieces to round out a full look, and yet I've been mildly resisting a full-on explosion of globes. I think it's because I viewed the act as one of being stuck in a rut, the repeated pairing of like with like. To be sure, it's not a bad groove to travel in—it's just that I prefer to challenge myself whenever possible.

Subconsciously, I must've wanted to hit repeat, because when Kelly from The Glamourai put out a call just such behavior, I took the bait. Clearly, it takes very little persuasion to send me trotting in circles for just a bit longer. I threw on a number of orb-ed printed garments and, for the first time this year, came out of hibernation to bust some moves.
