Petite Fashion Challenge #11

Tonight, I'm taking part in Petite Fashion Challenge No. 11 hosted by Ski Petite. 

 

This month's challenge is to "put together an outfit made for sightseeing. It should be one that will be comfortable for walking around in and can last you from the early morning until dinner and drinks in the evening. Plus, you're on vacation, so you'd better make sure you look good in photos, which you'll have for years to come. You can choose just one outfit but vary it by adding or taking off layers or accessories to take you from the a.m. to the p.m. and make one outfit easier to last through the day."

This challenge had me stumped for quite sometime.  It wasn't until my flu quarantine that I was able to rummage through my closet and put together what I consider to be the perfect sightseeing ensemble.

For day time sightseeing I chose a pair of skinny jeans, a colourful, flowy top, and a pair of espadrilles.

As I'm not going travelling anywhere in the near future, I used my imagination for this challenge and dreamed I was going somewhere hot, instead of being at home in chilly Ottawa - that's why I opted for open toed shoes and a tiny tank.

The espadrilles are perfect for pounding the pavement, or strolling along the cobblestone streets.

 For nighttime, I chose to throw on a blazer. I love the short over long layers, and how the black makes the colours of the tank pop.

And, if I'm feeling really up for a night out on the town, I would trade my espadrilles for leather heeled booties. Perfect for dancing the night away in any locale!
