Too hot here for the scarf in my inspiration photo, but nonetheless, I was pleased with this look after it was put together.  My shoes are totally different, but isn't that what inspiration is supposed to be? Use what you have, not copy exactly.

Yesterday you saw the bubble necklace over stripes. Today it's over polka dots.

 

I love tops that can be worn casual or dressed up for work. This is one of those tops. I've worn it before HERE, HERE, and HERE.

Maxing it out

As some of you get ready to say goodbye to summer (it will still be hot here for a while), I thought I'd share some looks with my maxi skirt and an old maxi dress I was able to pull out and wear again this summer. I love maxi skirts/dresses in the summer- so cool and comfy.

Funny thing about this dress- I missed it so much when it was too small for me, and now that I am able to wear it again, I've only worn it once. It seems a little tired and drab to me now, but was once a favorite. Funny how we change.

Fresh take

 

Blazer- thrifted; Shirt- Chicos-thrifted

pants- TJMaxx; shoes- Belk

jewelry- Target

Worn Aug. 21, 2013

 

When I saw Penny Pincher Fashion in her peach blazer and peach stripe shirt, I immediately thought of my pink blazer and pink striped shirt. Funny thing is, I've never thought about wearing them together before now and it's so obvious. I don't have white pants or jeans (couldn't wear the jeans to work anyway) so I paired it with khaki dress pants and some wedge shoes.

This is one of my favorite outfits of this summer. Perhaps because it's just two simple pieces that look a little more glam and pulled together with a statement necklace.  And you've probably picked up on it by now, but these wedges have been my "go to" shoes for the summer as well outside of work.

White denim jacket

 

Dress/jacket/wedges- Old Navy

worn July 13, 2013

 

I just realized I could be an ad for Old Navy. That was totally not intended and I didn't realize until I typed out the list above that every.single.item. is Old Navy.

 

So, tell me- can you wear a white denim jacket in the fall/winter? Labor Day is fast approaching and I have only worn this once. I purchased it earlier in the summer because it can be pretty cool in some of the places we go out to in the evenings so I thought I'd get a lot of wear, and well, I haven't. We just haven't been out as much this summer. So, can I wear this year round?

You've seen these pieces before but this is a new remix of them. I added a new accessory (the yellow necklace). It's amazing how an accessory or shoes even can make the same piece feel completely new again.

Loved this outfit, but sadly, it's a one time affair. Since I've lost weight, the pants are too big and by the end of the night, they were about to fall off. The shoes were brand new, and cut into the back of my legs. When I tried them on, I didn't notice that they hit at a weird place, but they do. The pants and shoes went into the Goodwill pile as soon as I got home that night.

It's hard to come up with post titles. The first thing I thought of when I looked at this vest in these photos was a bengal tiger, so there you have the title of this post. And where does time go? I haven't been over here to post in a week! Sorry.

Here's the second take on the skirt I scooped up on clearance after seeing it in a magazine. This time I'm paring it with blue.

Inspired again

 

The outfit above was another People Style Watch outfit featured in their "look for less" series. I immediately went on a mad hunt for the pieces. I found their look for less shirt at Amazon, a similar tuxedo blazer at Charlotte Russe, and cobalt capris at TJMaxx.  Here's my version of the look:

 

 

You've seen the shirt HERE before and the capris HERE.

shoes- Belk's

clutch- Target

Worn: May 9, 2012

I have embraced the floral trend this year in small doses, like with this top. This outfit also makes my first Forever 21 purchase. I don't live near one and was afraid to order because I wasn't sure about how sizing ran. I finally got the opportunity to shop in a town that has a store. Fun place! Not everything there is for me, but still a fun place.

Another first for me is the clutch I picked up on clearance at Target. Love it! The shoes were a clearance purchase from Belk's last year. I think this is one of my favorite outfits.

Occasionally we have a cold snap that lasts about 24 hours. That was the case weekend before last, so I jumped at the opportunity to wear my thrifted leather jacket with fur collar. I also got that scarf for a Christmas gift and was beginning to think I wasn't going to get a chance to wear it. There really haven't been enough cold days to wear all of my winter wardrobe. But enough about the weather. Aren't flared jeans great? I've worn these several times but haven't managed to get a photo until now.
