Pinspired March 3.0 Recap

7 Comments

Is it just me or did March fly by?!  I had so much fun this Pinspired March!  Don’t get me wrong – I had a great time in 2014 and 2015, and if you missed all the Pinspiration from years past, you should definitely browse through the recaps!  But this year was so awesome that I’m sitting here, truly sad to see the month end!  You can see why…

March 1st and 2nd kicked off the VSP (Very Serious Posing).

Sometimes when I'm browsing Pinterest, I'll find pins with pieces nearly identical to something I've thrifted, like these two looks on March 9th and 10th!

You don't need to copy pins exactly (I'm NOT wearing shorts with tights, sorry) - it's all about the INSPIRATION on March 11th and 12th!

Though it is fun when you get a close replica like on March 13th and 14th!

I LOVE copying little kids' poses, even though they're inevitably cuter and more talented!

Luck of the Irish that I should find thrifted green pants and this pretty kimono from a local source!

The *only* day I didn't get a pin copied photo was March 20th but that's okay because I did get this photo after the Millwoods Assembly Passion Play and it cracks me up!! It looks like a family photo with Jesus (in his official digs), our sons and good ol' Mom ("Yes, Honey, I AM going to wear this sweater! This is your message to the world and I'm proud of you!")

Despite the photo evidence, my pants in these photos are totally different colours - cobalt on the 22nd and periwinkle on the 23rd!

Perhaps my favourite post of all time happened with this mustard skirt and I only shared one of eight pinspired looks on Instagram, so if you missed the rest, go back and look! As for the 25th, I learned dog trumps hat every time!

So, which is YOUR favourite Pinspired look?  It is hard to choose, but my favourite post of the month was …. drum roll please…

What can I say? I want to be an Anthropologie model.

The “fan” favourite according to the highly scientific data of most Instagram likes was…

The pinnacle of VSP (Very Serious Posing) required me to haul my daughter's bike into the bush beside her play house, so thank you for appreciating my commitment.

Thank you to everyone for following along on this Pinspired March 3.0 adventure!  And stay tuned because I haven’t ruled out the possibility of more VSP and more #pinneditthriftedit in the near future!

    Thanks for the wonderful recap!  I love your sense of humour and playfulness!  You have again shown us that getting dressed can be fun and copying other people’s outfits is totally okay!  Whether it is copied as is, or modified and used only as an inspiration, you have mastered the art of “pinspiration”!
