I didn’t post yesterday because I basically wore a mix of these two outfits.

I wore the suit and the polka dot shirt. I also wore the polka dot tights and black shoes.

I didn’t show it off because I also worked late last night and was very tired when I got home.

I had planned to wear something different today, but was very tired when I woke up and just went with something easy.

Sweater – TJ Maxx, Shirt & Shoes – New York and Company, Pants – Express, Jewelry – The Limited

Two things that I have learned from this outfit. I need to remember to always iron in the crease of these pants. I also need to wear these pants with at least a little bit of a heel.

I am not sure that this outfit translates as well in pictures as it did in person… but I am going with it. What I do really love is this sweater and statement necklace. I don’t know that I love the button-up under it, but I do love the necklace with this.

What do you wear when you are super tired and need to be put together?

Sweater – Target, Button -Up, Pants, Jewelry – New York and Company, Shoes – Calvin Klein via TJ Maxx

What do you think? Are the pants too 80′s? I also am loving an ankle pant with heels. I have about three or four other ankle pants on my wishlist. What do you think? Do you think that they are flattering at this length on me?

So this is my first of 4 BOLD outfits this week. I think that will be my theme. I have also thought about what I am wearing for Find it Friday too! Yay for outfit planning.

And now for the detail shot – Have a great day!!

Here is a roundup of weekend outfits. I wore one other one – but the Bug got it very dirty and not picture worthy.

FRIDAY Night

Sweater – Target, Flannel – Target, Jeans – Levis via TJ Maxx, Shoes – Target

It was a long week and it was nice to change into something very comfortable for dinner at the local diner.

SATURDAY at the Park

Shirt – Old Navy, Sweater – TJ Maxx, Necklace – New York and Company, Gray Tank – Target, Jeans – Old Navy, Socks – Target, Boots – Steve Madden via DSW

This was my park and date night outfit. Pretty casual – but we really just ate dinner at the mall and then went to a movie.

Sunday Brunch

Shirt and Cardi – New York and Company, Jeans – Levis via TJ Maxx, Necklace – gift from MIL, Glasses – Calvin Klein (these are my old glasses… I can’t wait for my new ones to come in), Shoes – Candies via Kohls.

Monday Errands

Tank – Target, Cardi – New York and Company, Jewelry – Target, Jeans – Old Navy, Socks – Target, Boots – Steve Madden via DSW, Belt – New York and Company

I am so excited that the Hubs and I did a little bit of shopping when we were out running errands. I have some BOLD outfits coming this week.

The detail shots are always fun to put together. You may have noticed that some pieces I wore over and over again. That happens on the weekends. I like to remix multiple days in a row. I also think that leopard should be considered a neutral. What do you think?

I also found out that I can make my hair wavy. Naturally my hair is very straight -so to have a little waves is very exciting to me. What do you think? Do you like the waves?

***on a side note – I took all of these pictures this morning due to the fact that we were super busy and my daughter was loving her snack in the highchair***

Here is her outfit

I love the pattern mixing and that dress. It is a great piece to pattern mix and also looks great with those boots.

I want to steal her belt and her boots. I need black boots like that.

Again – here is my outfit. 

I love how both of our outfits turned out. Please join us next week on Friday!!

Find it Friday is when you FIND something in your closet that you haven’t worn in a long time and wear it on FRIDAY. Then you make up your mind if it still should belong in that closet of yours.

Who wants to guess which item I “found” today?

Dress – Connections via Ross, Shirt  and Jewelry  - New York and Company, Tights and Belt – Target, Shoes – BGBG via TJ Maxx

FIND out after the break! 

It is the shirt. I haven’t worn this shirt in about 3 years. I really like the colors, the stripes, and the ruffles. Sometimes it is hard to layer with the ruffles though and I usually like to layer in the winter.  I also have only worn this dress once. I bought it right before coming back to work this fall and wore it my first week back to work. That was it. I really like how this whole outfit worked today though. I think that I should try layering this shirt more under other dresses or jackets and not just sweaters. I also like this dress. I need to figure out other ways to remix. Do you have ideas of how to remix this dress and or this shirt?

I hope that you can join me! Leave a comment and I will do a round up post on Saturday morning!

Cardi, Cami, Shirt, & Jewelry – New York and Company, Pants – The Limited, Shoes – Guess via DSW

I feel refreshed when it comes to my work. That is a great feeling considering how tired I am right now and how much work that I have to catch up on. Being out of the office all day with very limited email access can make it difficult. The Hubs also got back in town tonight… so that helps with taking care of the Bug – who happens to not be feeling well. What a week! One more day and then a three day weekend.

What do you love about your job?

***I’ve Got This Friend – by the Civil Wars***

Check it out! They are such a talented duo and I love how soulful their music is. This song keeps playing in my head this week.

I have seen this gray dress online at Old Navy. I have been considering it for a while… I need to go and try it on. Here is how I would style it to take me from winter to spring and then mommy on the go!

**Day1 ** Day 2** Day 3**

and today is Day 4!

Shirt – Old Navy, Dress – The Limited, Belt – New York and Company, Necklace – World Market, Boots – DSW, Nude Tights – KMart

Today is actually inspired by Thursday’s look. I knew that I wanted to wear this dress for the challenge when I bought it. I did feel a little dressed up cowgirl though with the boots. But I went with it anyways.

 What do you think? Did I pull off the Thursday look today?

PS – sorry for the shortness of words lately. It has been a long week and I cannot wait for it to be the weekend!!! Yay for a long weekend.
