PFC #17 » Candy Colorized Challenge

by dietingfashion on June 28, 2012

SewPetiteGal is a supermom with an knack for DIY on just about anything! From bracelets to necklaces, to even a removable peplum, SPG is so hands on talented. This month, SPF hosts the Petite Fashion Challenge #17 – Candy Colorized.

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.

**Extra brownie points if you post more than 1 colorful ensemble or if you add a DIY element

My worst color combo nightmare: Green and Red.

How am I going to NOT look like a christmas tree!?!?!?

Why am I wearing glasses? Because I have pink eye! I got pink eye from my mascara. It was a Sephora sample from Dior. I think I’ve used it only a handfull of times. But did you know that mascara only lasts for 6 months? I did not know that. I have had this mascara for almost a year. Well it gave me pink eye.

Thank you for your kind words 🙂 I agree with Elaine – not X-massy at all (and I would have panicked with red and green too)! I love the red stripes with the mint – very pretty! Hoping your pink eye clears up soon!

Aw, you don’t look like a Christmas tree at all! Especially when pairing a mint green instead of the deep forest green we always see during the holiday season.

Hope the pinkeye clears up soon!
