Retro

I am feeling a little retro today in my fancy 70's esque shirt and owl necklace. I love the colors!

Outfit Details:
Shirt, Skirt, and Shoes: Thrifted, Necklace: Forever 21. Tights: Gifted.

I got my wish!

The sun has arrived! Perhaps my poem from yesterday worked?!

I was feeling a bit wild but also fastidious today, and I think my outfit shows the dichotomy. But I like it. :)

Outfit Details:
Everything (tank, skirt, stockings, shoes) Thrifted.

Dressed by the Mister

So, I asked my husband to pick out my wardrobe for today, and I think he did an absolutely fantastic job!

Outfit Details: 
Sweater, Old Navy. Tank, Skirt, Shoes and Necklace, thrifted. Tights, gift. 

Going to the Salon

This is from yesterday - I was on my way to see Oz at Roca Salon, and fired off some quick shots of my "before" hair.

Outfit Details: 
Once again, everything you see here, belt, boots, jeans, sweater and tank are all Thrifted!!! 

Almost Famous

Remember the movie "Almost Famous" with Kate Hudson? She wore a awesome suede and fur (mine is real suede, but faux fur) jacket, and I just loved it. Here is my version of an "Almost Famous" look. 

Outfit Details: 

Everything I have on, from my boots, to the belt, to the jeans, sweater jacket and gloves are all THRIFTED!!! Woooo!!! 

Cancelled Travel

Well, up until an hour ago, I was flying to Denver this afternoon. However, due to the prediction of 3" of snow tomorrow, I cancelled my plans at the advice of my husband. So he'll come home tonight and we'll enjoy the nicer weather in KC. Here's what I was planning to wear to travel today (plus a heavy wool coat, of course).

Outfit Details:
Everything, from the sweater, jeans and shoes are all thrifted!!!

A Very Special Guest

Making his first appearance on What I Wear When I'm Not in Pajamas is Mr. Not-In-Pajamas himself, my wonderful husband Jamison.

Everything I'm wearing is from a thrift store - I don't think he's ever seen the inside of a thrift store in his life! lol!

On Jamison: Jacket, Michael Kors. Shirt, Affliction. Jeans, Levis. Shoes, Sketchers.
On Me: Thrifted Dress, Boots and Belt. Socks, Target.

Safari Glam

A bunch of thrifted goodies today - the belt, shirt, and boots are all recent finds!!! I'm wearing this to go see a matinee today with some friends - I'll be bringing a sweater or a jacket, since theatre's are notoriously cold.

I LOVE these boots! They're so 70's retro cowboy, but also kind of Art Deco somehow.

Belt - I'm not usually one for animal prints, but I really liked this one, and I think it adds just enough without being gaudy.

Outfit Details:
Shirt, Belt, and Boots, thrifted. Pants, Charlotte Russe, I think (it's been years).

Like Friday, Only Different

I know today's outfit looks quite a bit like what I wore on Friday, and the shoes are the same, (though I had originally wanted to wear my new pink ones, but the color didn't match), but the skirt is different. You know how I love pencil skirts, so when I found a few at the thrift store in white and tan I nabbed 'em! 

Outfit Details: Blouse, Shirt and Skirt, all thrifted! Shoes, Payless. 

Rain Drops Keep Falling on my Head

It is pouring today. It's dark and stormy and there's thunder and lightening - I love it! The rain sounds so beautiful on the roof. 

These are probably my very favorite shoes that I own. Unfortunately I almost never wear them. 

Outfit details: 

Sweater, and white lacy tank, Old Navy. Green beaded tank, Thrifted. Belt, Arden B. Jeans, Seven. Shoes, Carlos Santana. 

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.

 

Dark Side of the Moon

Today we have what we refer to in KC as good sleeping weather. It's been raining lightly on and off since about 4AM, yet there is a warm breeze coming through the windows. So lovely. 

Outfit details: 

Shirt, belt, tank and skirt, all thrifted!! (I'd tell you the makers, but I'm too lazy to pull everything off to check the tags). Shoes, Payless.  

Thrift Store Safari

I'm headed to the thrift store this morning to find some jersey knit shirts I can deconstruct for a project I'm planning. 

Outfit Details: 

Shirt, thrifted. Tank, JCPenney. Pants, Ross. Belt, thrifted. Necklace, Boston Proper. 

Yellow and Tan

My dress code was casual today. I don't normally wear yellow, in fact, this is the only yellow item I currently have in my closet. It tends to wash me out. But I love the color, and like how it looked today from the sweater. There's no denying how sunny and happy yellow is, and with the weather taking a very pleasant turn into the 50's and 60's for the next few days, I thought I'd bring some sunshine into my wardrobe. 

Outfit details: Sweater and shirt, Old Navy. Jeans, Seven. Belt, Reference. Shoes, Payless. 

Physical Graffiti

Today's outfit is a reflection of what happens when you listen to Led Zeppelin while getting dressed: mismatched patterns and colors that somehow feel totally "right" in that psychedelically charged moment. I actually quite enjoyed this outfit's funkiness. It fit my mood today, born while trying on every outfit I'm taking with me to Hawaii, including shoes and jewelry. (Anal, I know, but now I feel much more prepared). Thanks for the inspiration, Jimmy and Robert :)

 Outfit Details: Shirt, Express. Pants, Ross. Belt, Don't remember. Necklace and Hat, Target. Slippers, Gifted (Thank You, Malinda!! Can you believe I still have them? :)
