Pinterest Mondays: Call for Submissions

May 12, 2014

When I started Pinterest Mondays, I thought that I would never run out of outfits to recreate.  Funny thing is that most of the outfits on Pinterest come springtime involve rompers, denim shorts or bandage minidresses…not really what I’m looking for.

I know that many of you have Pinterest accounts or have seen photos on the web of outfits you’d like to see translated into purchasable pieces.  So bring on the suggestions.  I would prefer more professional or business casual attire, but if you have a weekend look you’re just dying to try, post that too.  Leave the link in the comments, and don’t forget to follow Capitol Hill Style on Pinterest.

      I would also be interested in a summer wedding series with all the different types of weddings!! HELP!!!

    • Barefoot in the Grass says:

      And shoes for weddings on grass! I’m willing to just walk carefully for the ceremony and then dance the night away, the bride wants us to all wear the same (non-stiletto) shoes.

    This dress for a wedding: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/37225134394528328/

    The wedding is black tie & outside…so I am stuck on shoes & jewelry. The ceremony is in a church.

    Thanks!

    • Megan says:

      Is it in the summer? Because a black tie outdoor summer wedding sounds horrific and mean. I have an outdoor wedding on July 5, but it’s definitely not black tie. Actually black tie outside in any season seems a little ridiculous to me…

      • Meagan says:

        yep. outside…in South Carolina…god help us all.

        • Megan says:

          ohh….my god. seriously? I feel like you get one or the other…black tie OR outdoors? I would just love to know what on Earth they were thinking.

    I absolutely adore these colors together: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/278519558180007971/

    I also like this look for spring and would LOVE to find similar pieces. The white on white is so unique: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/278519558179934380/

    This outfit, but for daytime and with some accessories: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/42573158951601667/

    Or – This outfit, but in more professional pieces: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/42573158950533318/

    Or (last suggestion) – this outfit: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/42573158950316632/

    Three professional/casual outfits I’ve been dying to re-create:

    1. Spring office attire: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/20618110768675065/

    2. Breezy office to social attire: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/20618110768313233/

    3. Casual Friday/work from home with errands attire: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/20618110768888304/

    Thanks!

    It is really hard to find dress outfits for work – we are not quite suits everyday but on the dressier side of business casual. I would love ideas

  6. I’m interested in something like this:
    https://www.pinterest.com/pin/20547742024625525/

    Not the whole outfit (detest patent leather belts), but I would like to know how to incorporate something like a large brooch without looking old.

  7. Sarah says:

    I love the Pinterest outfits…but so many can be so matchy-matchy. You’ve done a great job curating so far.

    This one isn’t seasonal but OHMYGOD. Finding these things in the mortal price range would blow my mind.

    https://www.pinterest.com/pin/61854194855364028/

    I also love this one.

    I’d be interested to see how to style wide legged / Palazzo pants, kind of like: https://www.pinterest.com/pin/15621929931774847/

    Love the idea of some wedding appropriate looks.

  9. Jill says:

    https://www.pinterest.com/pin/5348093280066888/ love this site and how she mixed patterned top with a colored skirt that doesn’t have that exact color in it. How can you do this, outside of black, khaki and navy? Help with the belt as all my belts are skinny as I have a rounder rump. 🙂

  10. Pam says:

    Styling white denim for summer? Also pulling of conservative (finance) work looks without always falling back on a matched suit…particularly when it is hot!

The Find: A Striped Tee

Without question, the most worn item in my wardrobe is a black-and-white striped tee. I wear it in winter under sweaters, in spring with white jeans, in summer with black shorts. I’ve been wearing the same one for years (it’s the best). But they don’t make it anymore. So here are some options for replacement.

The Find: Like a McCall’s Pattern

When I was young, my Mother used to bring me along when she would go shopping for fabric. As a result, I spent a lot of time, killing time, flipping through pattern books. So when I spotted this dress, I was instantly transported to the pattern table at a Jo-Ann Fabrics.

Before we start today’s reader questions, I wanted to take a moment to talk a bit about mental health. For those who experience mental health challenges — whether occasionally or frequently — talking about our struggles is a double-edged sword.
