I wore all black and white today. My original plan was to go the Austin Bloggers Meet-Up in the evening after school, and I was going to carry my red handbag and wear my red specs, which would have provided a little punch of color, but alas, math homework took longer than expected and [...]
This is one of my favorite skirts, and I was so excited to be able to wear it again, because I haven’t pulled it out since last winter. It’s a rather restrictive skirt, so if it’s above 80 degrees, I find it’s too hot to wear it. It was 78 degrees today, just [...]
As hinted at in my post yesterday, I decided to haul out my lone cocktail dress and see if I could make it work in a more casual setting. Its “dressiness” is mainly due to the styling (low neckline) and the fact that it is made of a silk satin material, and has some [...]
Day two of “No Pants Week” and things are in full swing! It was gorgeous and warm outside today here in Austin–perfect dress weather. I saw several of my dress week compatriots in the halls at school and they looked fabulous! The only hiccup came when I went to visit one of [...]
I tweeted about the “No Pants Week” challenge a few days ago, and got several teasing responses, all along the lines of “Does that mean what I think it does?” Alas, no bare bottoms here (and yes, I am wearing a skirt in the above photos). “No pants” simply means “skirts and dresses [...]
When I stepped out of the bedroom this morning after getting dressed my husband said, “Hello, my vampire princess.” Ha! Well, it is almost Halloween.
This is by far one of my girliest shirts. I love the dramatic puff sleeves and stand up collar. The sheer part is made of [...]
As you can see, I really love stripes. I was doing laundry yesterday and all my striped tops were in the wash at the same time, and I realized just how many I actually have. It’s seven, not including zebra striped items. Plus a striped skirt….maybe I’ll hold off on buying any [...]
Heel wearing success today! It was chilly, so I decided to try wearing my cheetah print boots to school, despite their heel. It’s less than two inches, but even a small heel can be torture for me by the end of the day. The cushioning in the bottom of them really helped. [...]
I seriously need some rain boots. It was rainy and fairly chilly today (you don’t hear me complaining though). A loud crack of thunder woke me up at 4:30am and I couldn’t get back to sleep after that, so I got an early start. I chose to wear this tunic because it’s [...]
These are officially my favorite pants ever.
I found them on sale at J. Crew for $19.99 one day and despite the fact that I had no idea what I would wear them with, I KNEW it was meant to be. Because the pants are such a statement, and due to my short legs and [...]
