Instagram lately


 I haven't done an Instagram round up lately, so here are a few outfits that made Instagram and not the blog.

I think this first outfit is incredibly boring, but saved by the necklace and shoes.


 
top- old
blazer- thrifted
pants- JCP
shoes- Nordstrom
 
 
Chartreuse and navy pinstripes? Yes! I think this was the first time I added a necklace with this top because it has it's own embellishment, but the long necklace works.

 
Blazer- Gap
pants- Gap
blouse/necklace JCP
 
Again- just boring to me, saved by the necklace and shoes, although I probably would not repeat the necklace with this.
 
 
 
Blazer/ pants- The Limited
blouse- The Limited
shoes- TJMaxx
 
Cobalt! Need I say more.
 

Blazer/ pants- The Limited
blouse- JCP
shoes- Payless
 
That's a lot of navy. Maybe that was my brain's subconscious switch from black to navy for spring?

Do you ever feel like you struggle to come up with new outfits? I sure do. And for some reason, Spring always seems to be the biggest challenge. I added a few new pieces last spring, but I feel like I can't possibly come up with new ways to wear them. I did a spring capsule wardrobe last year and found out that a capsule can get really boring. And I still struggled with outfits.  Maybe I'm limiting my choices because I've gained a few pounds this year and I feel like some of my pencil skirts and pants aren't the best fit right now. I don't know. Anyway, this top was one of last year's purchases- seen here just a few days shy of a year ago. I like it with the contrast of grey and the pops of yellow here.

I just did a round up of some bright striped pieces for spring. Lucky for me, I have a bright striped skirt in my closet. I've had this one for a few years now (see four more ways to wear it), and it still doesn't disappoint. I wore this to church on Sunday. It was a beautiful day but a little cool that morning so this cardigan was a comforting layer.

Happy Monday! I hope you had a great weekend. We had company this weekend. Our niece and four-year-old great-niece came to visit. We spent Saturday visiting the Sea Turtle Center, painting at Color Me Happy ( a paint your own pottery or canvas shop) and visiting a wild life refuge. We saw alligators, ducks, and a raccoon. This four-year-old is pretty quite and tame but keeping up with her can still wear you out.
 
I wore this outfit to work last week. I've had a similar version pinned forever, but was lacking the coral pumps. I picked these up a couple of months ago but have held out until spring to wear them. I think they are going to be a fun addition to the closet, but a color like this can be intimidating.
