What I Wore: Mustard & Dots

What I Wore: Mustard & Dots

  Hello lovelies! I hope your respective weeks are going well. Mine definitely is. That cold front that came through over the weekend had me worried, but then today it was back in the 80's. Whew! I'm not quite ready for bundling up yet. We've moved back to A/C...

What I Wore: Faux Fall

What I Wore: Faux Fall

  Just because it's still 85 degrees here during the day doesn't mean I can't sartorially pretend it's fall. Hence my sweater (though short-sleeved) and scarf (though non-warm-making). This is my first venture into fashion scarf wearing. Prior to this, the only...

What I Wore: Floral Rust

What I Wore: Floral Rust

  This week's closet challenge from Ma Nouvelle Mode was 'oversized shirt,' and I just so happened to have one that I'd been waiting to wear. I tried on about a dozen different belts before settling on this one. And... I dunno. This look turned out ok. I'm...

What I Wore: Turquoise Crochet

What I Wore: Turquoise Crochet

  I went to my closet today with a mission. What hadn't I worn in while? What hadn't I figured out how to wear yet? Answer: a) my black jeans and this tank both, and b) this turquoise crochet top. And somehow they all work together. Color me surprised, but I kind...

What I Wore: Date Night

What I Wore: Date Night

  Just add maxi dresses to the ever-growing list of my sartorial obsessions. This is what I wore yesterday for date night (and just during the day, too). A comfy, one-piece outfit in a great color combo? Sold and sold. I normally don't like the blouson affect on...

What I Wore: On Vacation

What I Wore: On Vacation

I have something a little different and fun for today's What I Wore: a recap of a whole week! I took my trusty tripod & camera (and iPhone) with me on vacation last week, and thought it'd be neat to do a mini chronicle of what I wore each day. I didn't always have the...

What I Wore: Purple Maximus

What I Wore: Purple Maximus

  Please excuse the vaunted post title, but I'm feeling quite queenly today. And not just because purple is the color of royalty. I'm feeling like queen of my sewing machine because I made this dress!!! I know - quite the step up from making pillows. At the...

What I Wore: Maxi Stripes

What I Wore: Maxi Stripes

  Stripes: only slightly less of an obsession than polka dots and lace. This has been my favorite maxi dress this summer. It's so soft and breezy, and just plain easy to wear. This is what I wore yesterday around the house, out running errands, and then to a...

What I Wore: Polka Dot Lounging

What I Wore: Polka Dot Lounging

  Yes, that's right. My polka dot obsession has reached a new high - polka dot denim shorts! Found these at Kohl's the other week, and fell in love. They're lightweight, a great color combo, the perfect length... it was meant to be. And, um, related to that,...

What I Wore: Faded Rainbow Stripes

What I Wore: Faded Rainbow Stripes

  I wore this on Friday last week, and I had a bit of fun with filters on some of the pictures (some unfiltered pics farther down to see real colors). This outfit was easy and light, comfortable while still being sturdy enough to withstand life with a...
