I missed posting yesterday because A. I was busy at work and B. My outfit was nothing to blog about.... We had Transfer Orientation and I wore jeans, tennis shoes and a College of Science shirt.... So, yeah, that was yesterday!
Today it's cold out!! I'm not sure it made it into the 20s this morning as was forecasted, as it didn't feel that cold this morning on our walk. It's cold, but not overwhelmingly so. Which was a good thing for sure. My outfit is not much of a Friday outfit, simply because I didn't feel like sitting in jeans all day and wanted something more comfortable. This sweater dress is about as comfy as they come. It also is prob about a size too big now, so I had to belt it to keep it from looking like a sack.
My outfit today:
Dress: H&M, $30
Boots: Cole Haan, via Piperlime for $90. Not sure what crazy sale I found them in b/c a week later they were back at regular price and now are on "Sale" at 179.00! See here.
Belt: Came off a different shirt
Watch: MK
Good call on turning off the lights to force the camera to flash, Mom... it worked for this first picture!
This is my chronicle of what I am able to do with just the things I already own. I am attempting to create real world, professional, but fun, outfits using what I already own; basically shopping in my own closet.

Back to work, for 3 days, thank goodness!
So my outfit today was thrown together last minute because I frankly didn't feel like doing ANYTHING after we got back to BR yesterday.
I desperately need to go to the grocery store, but I think I'm going to put that off until the weekend. This weekend is going to be my recovery weekend. It felt so great to sleep last night. Our hotel room for the weekend was fabulous, but very loud. Even 33 floors up, the sirens and yelling people made it seem as though I was trying to sleep on a balcony on Bourbon Street! (Ok, well, maybe not that bad!)
I'm very comfortable today because I had to wear flat shoes. I have blisters on my pinkie toes (after wearing boots with socks!!! WTH?)The skirt is actually a black denim and the shirt is black. Again, gotta address my lighting issue!
My outfit today:
Skirt: Larry Levine, TJ Maxx (or Marshalls, can't remember) $10
Top: Old Navy Clearance, $6
Jacket: Loft Clearance, $20
Shoes: Bandolino, DSW, $ 30
Necklace: JC Penny Clearance, $7

2012 BCS Weekend
While the overall outcome of the weekend really stunk, the time leading up to it was a blast!
Here are some pics from our weekend in New Orleans:
Our room view...
Saturday night Saints playoff game
Tourists (Bama, bleck) doing a carriage tour
Drinks before we headed into the French Market
Garrett enjoying the gas lanterns
Tiger Band before the game
Amanda and I before the game
As you might assume, this was the last picture taken Monday as we quickly fell out of a festive mood!
