    My Style!

    Another Blogaversary Post Today! I received an email asking me about my personal style, and while some days what I wear can't be considered "style" I have worked out a couple of super easy "Looks"  for everyday. I've found that becoming a housewife has made it harder to decide what to wear, some days the only person who sees me is Lee, and heels in the grocery store just seems tacky, haha.
    I like to look good, but not at the cost of function (except at Night, if we're headed out to a party, I Love ridiculous heels, LOVE THEM).
    The following outfits are ones that I'd wear to grocery shop, run errands, walk the dog, and of coarse to blog in :)

    Here's an example:
    COLOR!! too much???

    Jeans, every one's favorite, I'm really loving the "boyfriend" cut, kinda loose, kinda beachy (plus you don't have to shave your legs). A cute tank top with some color. A cardigan (seriously I wear them all the time). A Belt!!! I have recently discovered how great belts are, they help make an outfit look "finished". Sandals, in a color! LOVE! and you'll never find me with out a HUGE purse! I don't understand small purses, although maybe when I'm 80 and have a bad back I'll regret my BIG PURSE HAULING WAYS.

    Two words could pretty much sum up my "STYLE" . . . YOGA PANTS. Lululemon are my pant of choice! Most days you can find me sporting something similar to this, I like a cute pair of earrings, I've noticed the days I wear earring I get way more compliments on my appearance, and this little pair of pink flower studs were too cute. And I don't own this bag, but I super wish I did :(
    Yoga Wear

    I LOVE stripes and I love the contrast of Orange and turquoise. I also Love a great leather sandal, and a great leather belt.
    Weekend Shopping

    And last, a day outfit that I'd wear if people were going to see me :) Like lunch out during the week or a day out with Lee on the weekend :)
    Orange Weekend!

    I Hope you enjoyed this post, I know it's way out of my area of expertise, but then again so is almost everything I talk about here haha.
    Stay Tuned, more posts to come today!

      So many cute finds! Are most of the items local to you? Would I be a huge pain in the rear to ask for a source list/links to the items in your style boards! :) :)

      xoxo,
      Jen

      Love those outfits! Especially the one with the shorts and bright orange scarf & bag! Love how the belt perfectly goes with the shoes. I'd also love to see where some of the pieces are from :)
