TikTok Outfit Challenge
Do you ever get in a style rut and just need to shake things up?
I started a series on my TikTok account about a year ago where I asked my followers to choose a number and it corresponded to a page in one of my outfit inspiration notebooks.
I have 2 notebooks so I would go the extra mile to pick the same page from each notebook and try to meld the two styles together.
It’s been a lot of fun and really helps me stretch my creativity and see new potential in my wardrobe!
I was down to just a few numbers so I thought I would do a 5-day outfit challenge where all the outfits were chosen by my TikTok followers. Maybe I’ll do this again in the future and try to pick 2 different numbered pages?! Time will tell! (No pun intended)
Sidenote: unless stated otherwise, it’s safe to assume that most of the clothes were thrifted!
Outfit Inspiration: Pastels & Polka Dots
The first pages of outfit inspiration immediately made me think of pattern mixing my polka dot pieces and wearing my pink coat. I’m totally stashing this idea away to wear for the right moment!
Outfit Inspiration: Pattern Mixing & Bright Green
When these pages were picked, I felt pulled towards wearing my bright green turtleneck and basically built the outfit around it.
It reminded me of “Gucci” in the midwest. My style doesn’t lean towards over the top but I can imagine a maximalist would really add some fun accessories and make this a look.
Outfit Inspiration: Yellows & Rockstar
I think the perfect piece for this outfit inspiration combo would be a yellow moto jacket but because I still don’t have one, I settled for styling a cozy yellow cardigan. I wore it with a navy blue tunic, gray tights, tall boots, and a scarf around my neck in matching colors.
I don’t love it but I don’t hate it. I think it has the potential to be more so maybe I’ll revisit it in the future!
Outfit Inspiration: Bright Colors & Late 2000s Fashion
I’ve been collecting images to put in my outfit inspiration notebooks since the mid-2000s so some of the images are kind of dated. But fashion is cyclical so one day it’ll pay off!
All that to say, these pages were quite a throwback so I leaned into that with an outfit that basically recreated what I wore when I graduated high school in 2009.
I found the orange sequin mini dress at a thrift store last year and bought it only because I had the pink twin in high school. (It’s from Walmart which as I recently shared on TikTok was my go-to fashion destination as a teenager!)
Outfit Inspiration: Bohemian & Grunge
And last but not least—this outfit inspiration mashup was the most exciting of all to try.
My outfit, on the other hand, ended up pretty basic. Black leggings, a tee, and a layered cardigan is something I wear just to lounge around.
But I hope that since it’s new to you that it seems exciting!
Time’s Up!
