The night sky may be a galaxy away, but Sunday best isn't far from the stars when it comes to an otherworldly wardrobe.  I refer, of course, to the heavenly stuff splashed all over today's outfits.  From the halo-wearing hearts, planets, and moons to something that I didn't catch until later, they all but scream celestial.  

Let me explain.

I was about to set up my usual neon poster board-backed flat lay (see above and almost any other post on this blog) for my accessories when I saw them scattered on this bench and thought, they look good, colorful chaos against the dark wood like stars in the night firmament.  Needless to say, I started snapping.


I don't know if I've ever mentioned this (although I probably have, as I'm always repeating myself!), but the husband got this bench from someone who got it from a church.  That's right; it's been with us since Brigantine but started life as a pew.  So, the cross pendant being mixed in with this junk drawer jewelry jamboree -- which I, ahem, swear I didn't notice until after I came up with this post -- seemed like a sign.  

I know that wrangling clothes isn't a religious experience -- except that sometimes it is.  So if it's blasphemous to say that fashion's my faith, then I don't want to be right.

I love this celestial theme!!! Your tunic is sweet and fabulous, as is your starry black top and accessories! The accessories add so much personality to each outfit; I think my favorite is the Pastel Celestial Barrette (it makes me think of Sailor Moon!) The photo of your accessories on the bench looks striking and it's so cool that it used to be a pew. I'm with you, "if it's blasphemous to say that fashion's my faith, then I don't want to be right." 😃

I love everything from the hot pink top, to the bag bling, to the planet bag, to the neon tights matching the half neon boots.
