What I Wore Week 2 - Spring Style Challenge

When I started blogging again I really envisioned myself blogging two or three times a week. Well, that didn't happen, I haven't blogged since last Wednesday - ha! Thank goodness for these what I wore re-caps.

I'm really loving this challenge, more so than others. Not because of the clothing specifically but how active the facebook group is. I don't think another group on facebook is as positive and supportive as this group of women. It really is amazing. I look forward to logging in each morning to see everyones interpretations of the daily outfits.

Before I get into what I wore this week, I'd like to give a shout out to my office mate Kristy. Her and I have shown up in matching colours more than once this last week and it's not planned. We heard a few times about #twinning or 'did you guys call each other this morning'. I'd love to take credit for it, but Kristy is stylish all on her own without needing someone to tell her what to buy. Me, I'm the hot mess mother of 4 who would pay someone to cook for her, never-mind dress her if she could (oh and I have  -that's another post for another time).

This is us matching last Wednesday.



Here's what I wore this week:

Day 4 - Denim on Denim

While a lot of woman found this one hard, I didn't really at first. Until I got to work and thought I looked like a prison inmate or something, I threw on a red lip to match the red in my shoes and felt a bit better.



Chambray - Old Navy, White T - Old Navy, Dark skinnies - Old Navy (notice a trend?), Coral bag - Just Fab
Floral shoes - Payless ,Gold Chevron Necklace - Forever 21

Day 5 - Loved this look!

I have a crush on this polka dot top. It's from the UK and I adore it. Thanks Mom for the early b-day present!

Top - Yours Clothing, Boot Leg Jeans - Old Navy, Cognac flats - Payless
Hoop earrings - Forever 21

Day 6 & 7- I modified a bit.
What jeans weren't happening when I have photo shoots and yard work to do, and same with Sundays outfit. Skirts can't happen while photographing children outside and newborn babies inside. Not practical. But I love my skirt - I just look rather large in it. 




Left - Basically all old navy except metallic sandals - Payless.  Right - Skirt from Yours Clothing and Chambray old navy

Day 8 - This one was fun
Scarf - Joe Fresh, Cardigan - Old Navy
Day 9 - No olive pants, and I'm sad
I'm loving the olive pants on EVERYONE. Wish I could get my hands on a pair. BAH. I wore grey instead.

those earrings? I love them - Topshop


Day 10 - mixed feelings.
I love this shirt, and have been waiting to wear it. But the white jeans still freak me out.

  1. You made me laugh with the inmate comment. I didn't think of that. Maybe lots of accessories are the way to go when wearing denim on denim. I will have to keep that in mind!! Happy Wednesday!
