Working girly


So, dressing for work and keeping up with this, "wear one piece you havent worn in 3 months thing" is probably the most challenging part of my self-imposed wardrobe restrictions. Since we have to wear black with a solid layer top, and black pants/skirt/dark jeans, and I've work most of my black in the last 3 months, I have to resort to creative layering and accessories. Most of which I bought at my work, so they can't really complain if they're an obnoxiously large pink bow. 


And considering that many times I come home from work, I'm too tired/just want to get into sweatpants, I often don't take pictures. But this ensemble was one of particular pride. 


[Insert crazy model pose here]

Top: Old Navy
Cardigan: Target (modified)
Skirt: Alice Temperly for Target
Tights: Old, Idk
Shoes: My awesome purple Steve Madden flats which magically match just about every purple thing I own.

Sweet Somethings


So, I am in love with this dress. First off, it is a shirtdress which FITS. Anything with buttons is usually a challenge to my considerable bosomage. It is also one of many pieces which is slowly convincing me that my life love is Old Navy. It's also a nice delicate chambray, which is one of my favorite fabrics. 

The Cardigan, however, is my BOC item. I have a lot of cardigans, not many of them get limelight. Sadly, this one may be getting retired as it is too short buttoned up, and the colors, when you look at the pattern closely, are just a little off -- I'm not super matchy, but I like something to go off of. 


I really can't tell whether I'm wearing my purple tights or black ones.... Hence why I should be better at this and post my pictures whilst I remember what I actually wore.


When I got home I decided I should try the shirt under. I liked it better, but alas, I was home and comfy. 

Dress: Old Navy
Shirt: Moda 
Belt: Modcloth
Tights (if purple, as I suspect): HUE

Carmel, Toffee and Candy



So, I don't have a story here. Partly because I'm uploading pictures from a month ago. So, pardon me whilst I empty my memory card. The new/old item: Pink, lacy goodness. I forget how wonderfully girly this piece is. Especially mixed with a flippy skirt. And I really can't tell you how much I adore my Christmas boots. 


My awesome giant bow cuff. 


You're going to see this face a lot. Sorry, its a tic.

A bit precious seventies


So, these jeans ave been on the rack because they didn't fit, but I loved the style (you can't really tell in these pictures, but they're quite high-waisted in a corseted way.) I've been a fan of seventies style (done my way) so they came back out!


But of course, I can't resist a cheeky high bun with a bow and pearl earrings :)
