What I Wore: Neutral Patterns & Red Boots

What I Wore: Neutral Patterns & Red Boots

This is what I'm wearing today. And it's been a doozy of a day so far. Combination headache + lots of work + monthly curse = I just want to wrap up in this cardigan and take a nap on the couch. But that is not an option for self-employed freelancers with deadlines to...

What I Wore: Winter Mint

What I Wore: Winter Mint

I know, I know. You guys were probably at least expecting snow on the ground with that title. But hey, I live in Austin. It was chilly out for these parts (I wore this on Sunday). And if it makes you northerners feel better, there was hail in the forecast when I...

What I Wore: Blazers & Knots

What I Wore: Blazers & Knots

This is what I wore today. I know I usually do these on Wednesday, but time & weather didn't allow until now. Somehow, freakishly, the rainy, cold weather of the past week disappeared today and we got sunny in the 70's. My kind of weather. ๐Ÿ™‚ You haven't really seen...

What I Wore: Black Scallops

What I Wore: Black Scallops

  This is what I'm wearing today. And it's only 37 degrees outside, and I'm not that dedicated to outfit posts, so indoor shots are the name of the game. They didn't turn out too badly, I think, though honestly I didn't spend much time on them. Normally I like to...

What I Wore: Plaid Hooded

What I Wore: Plaid Hooded

This is what I wore yesterday. It's maybe a little on the kooky side, but it's comfy and I ended up loving it. Bonus is that every single clothing item here was bought at a super sale price. The dress is a nice light t-shirt like material, and the tights are heavier,...

What I Wore: Red Buds in December

What I Wore: Red Buds in December

I wore this last week, before our little cold spell descended. A sleeveless top and light cardigan in December! This is why I live in Texas. I know in the summer I start complaining about it being over 100, but that's a price I'll gladly pay for sunny 75 degree days...

What I Wore: Olive & Mustard

What I Wore: Olive & Mustard

This is an outfit I wore last week. Yeah, I know- I'm on a mustard kick. So sue me. ๐Ÿ™‚ I love the length of this top, though I might remove the belt loops so I can wear the belt a bit lower. I feel like it hits just a tad on the high side like this. But it's a great...

What I Wore: Black Stripes & Mustard Tights

What I Wore: Black Stripes & Mustard Tights

  This week's outfit was partially inspired by Ma Nouvelle Mode's Copy Cat Closet challenge, which for this week was colored tights. I've dipped my toe into wearing colored tights before and have several pairs, but I hadn't had a chance to wear these mustard ones...

What I Wore: Phoenix & Dots

What I Wore: Phoenix & Dots

  Also known as the outfit post where I don't look at the camera once. I swear, I'm not trying to be pretentious. I took a bunch of pics with me looking at the camera, I just didn't like how they turned out. Or at least not as much as these ones. But anyway......

What I Wore: Sweater Induction

What I Wore: Sweater Induction

  Don't be fooled by the bright sunshine. It was 50 degrees out when I took these this morning. Hence the sweater, scarf, and me hamming it up like I'm freezing (see below). ๐Ÿ™‚ It looks like Austin has finally clued in to the fact that it is fall/winter. Which...
