Too many cute outfits not to share! I am gearing up for a month or so of no shopping and any time I plan a time period like that, I like to do a little reorganizing in my closet to give it a fresh look. This time it was moving my striped short sleeve tops with the rest of the short sleeves tops: I thought I “needed” more tops until I put them next to each other and realized I had a lot of choices. Saturday I wore two different olive top (one about 6 years old and one recently thrifted). It got so warm in the afternoon that I…

What do you wear for an outdoors summer outing? Anything that is comfortable and breathable: for me that is a skirt on the shorter side and a simple tee. I could have easily worn a tank top, but I am trying to make sure to wear everything in my closet, so I picked this thrifted Talbots skirt and a soft tee in a similar color scheme. I bought that tee before our trip to Costa Rica last year. I went minimal with accessories with a turquoise ring and a little cross necklace I bought on our trip in Georgia. First time I wore sneakers since our trip and I decided…

I thrifted this denim vest a little over a month ago in a little antique booth in town. While my son (the 10 year old) still proclaims it is not my style, I love it! I love the cropped length, the raw hem and the little colorful details. I have worn it a couple ways so far, but this has been my favorite outfit with it, so I had to document it. While I like colorful outfits, I really do love neutral outfits too. There is something calm and quiet about them. A monochromatic look in a neutral is always classy even if it is casual like this one. The…

When I looked at my TJmaxx receipt, these pants were described as swimwear.  I beg to differ as the material would not be great wet over a bathing suit! So I consider these true pants and while they are a little on the thin side, I do not think they are see through. The color grabbed my eye when I went in to buy some hand soap and body wash, and I just had to try them especially that I was taking a second look my flowy pants at the time. I really try to have in mind several outfits with something new I buy, especially if I am not…

This will be my last OOTD post for a little while: I feel accomplished having rotated a few different sections of my closet the last few weeks. First with my thrifted shorts, then my maxi skirts and last my shorter dresses. While the exercise was fun, I did find it a little boring to wear the same style of clothes several days in a row. So I will be back to my regular diverse outfits for a while. TJMaxx Dress I’ve worn this dress for the blog and to go to the rodeo with my cowboy boots! On this occasion, I went to the grocery store and errands and just…

Last month, my sister in law gave me a dress that did not fit her anymore. She hadn’t worn it in years, but because she had loved it, she wanted to share it with someone who would love it too. She knows that I won’t take something just because it’s free, so she brought it over and when I saw the color of the dress and the fun neckline, I told her, yes, this was definitely a dress that I would wear! Comfort! That is the one word I would use to describe the dress I am sharing today! It makes me think of tennis or golf dresses, but in…
