What I Wore Wednesday

I read in Lucky magazine about the sweater clips that would hold sweaters together for the women back in the 50's(?). I didn't have one of those to hold my cropped sweater together, but I do have a brooch and a double ended suspender clip. I pinned the brooch to the clip and had the perfect solution. I paired my basic black dress pants (Gap) with a fun printed shirt (Kohl's) and my black cropped sweater (?). I added my reversible shiny belt (Target) and my pearl bead choker (thrifted). My awesome earrings (Target) didn't make it through the day. After helping my neighbor fix her computer under her desk, my earring fell out and the shell part of it broke. So sad! My accessories are having a rough week!

I changed my shoes before I left the house and wore my trusty black Sofft boots. The black thing I am holding is my awesome wrap. I bought this at Herbergers on sale and I LOVE it. I wear this wrap as a scarf all the time. I hope to wear it as a wrap once the weather permits it so keep an eye out for it. I will have to show you the detail/print on it at some point. I LOVE IT!

What I Wore - Purple Monday

This is my I don't want to do anything fun outfit. You haven't seen a lot of this yet as I just started to blog my outfits and I have had a lot of inspiration (and new clothes) but I see black dress pant outfits in our future. I LOVE a good pair of black dress pants and ANYTHING.

Today's inspiration was the white tank peeking out from under the purple sweater. The white tank has awesome purple and pink detailing on it. I loved the colors and design and had to have it. The tank is Old Navy. The sweater is thrifted for $5. (It is sooo soft it is quite shocking! Literally. Every time my husband hugs me we get shocked.) I added my purple belt for some more purple color. (Target) I made the necklace that I am wearing. I got my inspiration from the movie Monster in Law. I was watching this JLo flick a couple months ago and I loved the necklace that JLo was wearing. I went out and bought clear string and a huge clear pendant. The pendant has a prismic coloring to it and is a heart shape. I LOVE it. So simple yet fun!
