Stripes and Solids

I didn't want to wear that dress I had on earlier out, so when Mr. Not-In-Pajamas wanted to go out for dinner (his first day of solid food in over 2 weeks! YAY!) I changed into this: 
Outfit Details: 
Blouse and Tank, Thrifted. Shorts, Old Navy. Shoes, Sketchers. 

Blue and Holding


Hello! 

I picked up this cute little summer dress at the thrift store today. I didn't try it on, and therefore didn't quite realize just how short it is, so I don't think I'll be wearing this one out around town, but it's still fun to wear around the house (Mr. Not-in-Pajamas sure doesn't mind!). 
Outfit Details: 
Dress, thrifted. Shoes, can't remember. Charlotte Russe, I think. 
One of the things I have been working on recently is putting together my creative area. This is where I do my writing, painting, sewing, etc. I just love this space! (I put that whole desk together by hand! It took 2 weeks, 1 replacement part, 2 trips (and 60$) at the hardware store, but it was all worth it! 

Wear and Share

I've just returned from the thrift store with lots of new goodies to wear and share. Sorry for my recent absence. But I'm back and ready to play with some more fashion! 

Here is a sampling of some of my new finds. I just love digging through thrift stores!

Blue Stripes


I'm so pleased to say that Mr. Not-In-Pajamas  (actually he has been in pajamas for the last couple of days) continues to recover by leaps and bounds. He's healing wonderfully (thanks perhaps in some teeny part to the stellar care he has received from nurse Sarah). 

My shirt in today's outfit is the same shirt as this post. I loved it so much that I bought it in different colors. In fact, I have enough wrap shirts that I could do a whole weeks worth of posts in just this style... Hmmmm..... that's not a bad idea. :) 



Outfit details: 
Shirt, Express. Tank, J. Jill (Thrifted). Jeans, Seven (purchased at Marshalls). Shoes, Naturalizers. Necklace, (1928) Gifted.

A Day of Nursing


Mr. Not-in-Pajamas had an out-patient surgical procedure yesterday so I've been taking care of him today. He's doing a lot better and seems to be recovering well. I don't mind the work, but I sure will sleep well tonight. It's been a full day. 


Outfit Details: 
Shirt, H&M. Pants, Boston Proper. Shoes and Necklace, Newport News.

Raindrops


Wow, did it pour last night! We had one heck of a storm pass through, full of thunder and heavy rains. As you can see it's still very overcast this morning. I think I must have been channeling the colors of the storm in my wardrobe choices today. 


As for yesterday's dress, I chickened out and toned down the look before heading to the airport - I wore flats instead of heels, and put on a tank top under the dress so it wasn't so revealing... but even with the modifications Mr. Not-in-Pajamas was still very pleased to see me waiting for him when he arrived :). 

Today's Outfit Details: 
Sweater, Target. Tank top and Belt, Thrifted. Pants, Express. Shoes, Ebay.

Va-va-voom!

Mr. Not-in-Pajamas is coming home today after a week long business trip. I intend to knock his socks off when I pick him up at the airport this afternoon. Think this newly thrifted dress ($3.99 hehe!) will do the trick? ;) 
Outfit details: 
Dress, (thrifted) Lani. Shoes, Have had forever - can't remember where I got them.

Full Disclosure


As it turned out what I had on this morning is not what I ended up wearing today. I had a ton of errands to run, and knew I would have to drag groceries up to our penthouse loft (no elevator), and I was determined to drag my newly purchased desk upstairs (which I only later discovered weighted 85 pounds (I begged our landlord to let me use the freight elevator for that, which helped, some). None of these activities were conducive to high-heeled boots and skirts, so I changed into cotton pants. Which variation do you prefer? 

Outfit details: 
Shirt, (thrifted) Eyeshadow. Pants, Ross. Jacket, Express. Shoes (not shown), Charlotte Russe.
 

A Little Bit Rock n' Roll


This outfit reminds me of that song with the lyrics "She's a little bit country... He's a little bit rock n' roll..." I like how the lace on the blouse softens what otherwise could be kind of a "hard" look. (I'm definitely more comfortable on the "softer" more feminine side of things). 


Outfit Details: Blouse, (thrifted) Eyeshadow. Skirt, (Thrifted) Valerie Stevens. Boots, Ebay. Belts, Target.

Pink Fiesta


I love this skirt. I don't wear it very often, but when I do it makes me feel happy. There's something in it that makes me feel a teeny bit like Frida Kahlo, and how can that be bad?!

There's nothing thrifted in my ensemble today. That hasn't happened in a while!

Shirt, Express. Skirt, Boston Proper. Shoes, JCPenney. Necklace, DressBarn.
