What I Wore: Week Two

Let's give it another go this week.  Not sure how long I can keep this up.  It could get repetitive quickly, as I tend to repeat outfits quite often. I might have to consider just highlighting one outfit per week.

Saturday:  Saturdays mean grocery shopping for myself and the Man of the House.  I selected a pair of skinnies with the cuffs flipped for a cropped look, a white tshirt and a lightweight teal and white drapey cardigan with a hoodie.



Sunday:  I'm going to be completely honest with you.  I knew I was going to spend all afternoon working on a shop order and binging on Netflix, so I didn't even try.  I spent the day in a pair of Carolina Panthers lounge pants and a black tshirt.  Because some days are just like that.



Monday:  The day called for a casual outfit: gray jersey tunic with an open back, a bright blue tank, and jeans



Tuesday:  The temperatures really started warming up, so I selected A red peasant top to wear with some denim pedal pushers.  Nice and breezy.



Wednesday:  Another day with the super casual theme, finding me in a lightweight knit tshirt with a white flowy cardigan and my favorite Banana Republic jeans (another $4 thrift store find!)



Thursday:  A cool morning warmed up into a warm day.  Time for layers.  I wore brown flared pants, a loose coral sleeveless top.  A brown silk-blend cardigan kept me warm in the morning, and was easily removed when the day got heated.



Friday:  The day of the week when you want to be comfortable and have a little fun!  A brown flowy skirt (one of my favorites - I've had it forever!), a cream top with gathers at the neckline, and my trusty denim shirt.  


The beautiful necklace pictured with Friday's outfit was made for me by my daughter.

Friday Pinterest Wannabe Fashionista: Week 4 (Lighten Up!)

This was the week I challenged myself to lighten up and not wear black for a week.  Surprisingly, it was not as difficult as I thought! I will admit there were a couple of days it would have been very simple just to toss on a a black t-shirt or capris and not have to think so much about what to wear.  But in the end - I made it!

How did you do?  Be sure to share in the comments!

Here's my week:

Sunday: Striped top, beige tank, cropped jeans

Monday: Red patterned top, navy cami, denim shorts

Tuesday: Multi-color striped tank, green cardigan, white shorts

Wednesday: Purple maxi dress, green tank
Thursday:  White top, white tank, khaki shorts

Friday: Striped drape-neck top, cropped jeans

Friday Pinterest Wannabe Fashionista: Week 3

Once again, I try to copy an outfit I have pinned using items from my own closet.  In the spirit of full disclosure - the jacket is actually from the female offspring's closet, as all my blazers are black, beige, or denim.

THE ORIGINAL:
white cropped pants with colorful blazer


MY VERSION:


And now for something completely different...

I'm trying something a little different for Friday Wannabe Fashionista next week, and I hope you'll join me! I 

Your mission, should you chose to accept it, is:  
Lighten up - and go an entire week without wearing black.

  Yes... I know what you're thinking! IMPOSSIBLE!  I thought it too. When I first glanced in my closet I thought there was absolutely no way it could happen.  But after looking a little more closely, I believe it can happen.

So... in honor of summer - pull out some colorful clothing.  Wear it proudly. Take some photos.  Blog about it.  And be ready to share next Friday!
