What I wore

I love fashion blogs.  The ones where regular girls - with a great fashion attitude - post pictures of their outfits every day. 

(Lucy made that term up: "Fashion attitude".  As in "mom, you've got to meet the new girl in my class.  She's really sweet, and she has a great fashion attitude"). 

Some of my recent favorites are:

Its fun and inspiring to see how other people style their outfits and the different, creative ways they can wear things.  Like, I didn't even know until Reagan posted this picture of herself the other day that I could wear a shirt tucked into my skinny jeans with a skinny leather belt.  I had no idea!  So thanks Reagan!  And now I have been rockin' that look like every other day.

I was telling Jacob about my favorite daily outfit blogs and he said "Why don't you do that?"

and I said "cause I don't actually wear anything all that interesting"

He didn't really argue with me about that.  But a few days later when he got home from work I was in the kitchen cooking dinner.  He took one look at me and said:

"You should totally blog that outfit"

Isn't that cute?

So I'm not going to actually do this every day or anything.  Probably I'll never do it again.  But I'm going to do it right now, just for fun.  Here are a few pictures of what I have been wearing these past few days.  

(the first picture is the one Jacob said was blog worthy)

I should have at least smiled for the picture, hu?   Ok, here is one where I am flexing.  But I'm still not really smiling.

So this is what I'm wearing:

twist neck shirt : Old Navy - like 5 years ago

Mustard Cardigan : Target

Skinny studded belt : Target

Black Stirrup Jeggings: Gap 

(At first I thought the stirrups were crazy and silly, but then I realized how nicely they stay tucked into boots and I was sold)

Boots : Mia - a few years old.  And I wear them all the freaking time

This one was taken before Jacob and I went on a date.  I curled my hair for him.

 T-shirt: TJMaxx

Red Cardigan: Target

Same belt from Target

Same Black Stirrup Jeggings: Gap

Red Boots: Steve Madden - TJMaxx

This ones a little matchy-matchy for me.  I don't usually wear my red boots and my red cardigan at the same time.  I mean, I don't want to be boring.  

He looked cute too so I took a picture of him

Tshirt: TJMaxx

Jeans: Nordstrom Rack.  Some sort of cool brand.  Don't know what.

Shoes: Converse

Watch: Rolex.  We are rich.  Just kidding.  It is a Rolex, but we are not rich.  It was a gift. 

(from a rich friend, obviously)

And Last - but certainly not least:

(I can't get my head and my outfit in the same shot with my computer camera.  Sorry.  I think I was smiling really pretty in this one, so its really too bad you don't get to see it)

(ps - this one I contributed to everybodyeverywhere because I just happened to be wearing stripes the day I found this blog and they happened to be in the midst of a stripe challenge)
Tshirt: TJMaxx

Cardigan: Target (there it is again!)

Scarf: Target (another item that I wear far too often)

Skirt: Charlotte Russe

Leggings: TJ Maxx

Mia boots - again.  Told you

I buy pretty much everything at Target.  Once in a great while I will go to TJ Maxx.  And I rarely venture to a real mall.  Really, I rarely even buy clothes these days, since I am on a strict budget and have actually been really good at sticking to it lately.  But if I buy something, its usually from Target.

So that was fun!  Thanks for stopping by!
