What I Wore Wednesdays

Hope everyone’s week is off to a wonderful start! I cannot believe it is the first of February! Where has the time gone? I have tons of new and exciting things happening in my life, which I will share in the coming weeks, but until then here’s my first WIWW post for February! This dress was my very first purchase from Asos. I purchased it back in October and hadn’t had a chance to wear it yet. I accented the mustard color with blue shoes and a colorful belt. This dress can be worn throughout the year. The color lends itself to the cooler months and the cut and style of the dress make it a perfect dress for a warm weather affair. Also, there is a cut out in the back! I normally would shy away from something like this, but the construction of this dress works for my body and the hint of skin adds that little bit of intrigue.

What I Wore Wednesdays

It’s Wednesday! Which means I am half way through my first full week of work since before Christmas. I have been completely spoiled these last few weeks and it may take me a bit to adjust back to a 5 day work week. So far, so good. I absolutely love this outfit. I paired my chunky sweater with my cream skirt to create the the perfect mix of chic meets cozy. I topped off the outfit with some fun accessories and my favorite new shoes. Hope you all have a wonderful Wednesday! Don’t forget to link up here if you are doing a WIWW post! Still so excited I came across this!

p.s. The Pleated Poppy just posted that her WIWW is for people to showcase what they have worn all week! Does that mean I can’t link up?

What I Wore Wednesday

Lots of things going on this week. First off happy Wednesday! Only a couple more days and then the weekend! Second I finally found the perfect vintage Coach bag on ebay.  I took it to the cleaners because there was some wear on it. While there, the lady that helped me informed me I could also get the bag re-sprayed. I have to tell you I was a bit skeptical about this, but decided to give it a go. I got my bag back and it looks great! No, it’s not perfect and doesn’t look brand new, but the color looks so much more saturated and is much more of what I was going for. Also, you may notice my SHOES! I had been obsessing over these for months and C was sweet enough to surprise me with them for Christmas - made my day! I am heading to Kansas tomorrow evening with L, my dad, and my oldest nephew for a mini vacation. I am so excited to get back to Lawrence, visit with old friends, and watch KU play in Allen Fieldhouse! I’ll try to keep you all posted via twitter of what I am up to. You can follow me here!

What I Wore Wednesdays

I feel a bit like a classy cowgirl in this outfit with the large belt and cowboy booties. The dress is the same as the blue version I wore here. It really is a versatile piece that I can dress up or down. I wore this dress once before to the holiday party for my work and really dressed it up with a bold necklace, black tights, black heels, and gold ankle cuffs. I really should’ve taken a pic of the outfit for you all! It was quite an attention getter - in a good way, I hope! I hope this first week of 2012 has been going well for all of you! I can tell you one thing I am really happy it is already Wednesday! Hoping the rest of the week flies by!
