Great weekend! Kerri and Garrett came down for the weekend and we had a great time! (Well, I think they did, unless they were lying about it!) Kidding....
Friday we went to dinner and ended up eating quite late. By the time we finished our food we all were exhausted and looking forward to sleep! Plus, we knew we had an early/long day Saturday, with the 2:30 game, so we called it a night...
I wore:
Cardigan: Charlotte Russe
Top: Banana Republic
Jeans: Arden B
Wrap Bracelet: Charlotte Russe
Booties: Can't remember, but I know they are from TJ Maxx :)
Necklace: Not sure
Saturday was a good time, we enjoyed tailgating (Bourbon balls.... sheesh!) and the game. It was a really good time.
I wore:
Top: Calvin Klein
Jeans: Kenneth Cole
Shoes: Chinese Laundry
The belt made it until after the game....
After the game, we changed.. I threw on this t-shirt and the jeans I'd worn Friday night...
Sunday I went and checked out a new barn I may start taking some lessons at.... not exactly what I want to be doing in terms of the style of riding, but hey, it's riding! Other than that, Jax and I chilled and did a smattering of small chores. All in all, it was quite the successful weekend!
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.

Game Day! But wait, it's Thursday....
It's Gameday! I don't like this idea of Thursday night games. I think I'd be okay with Friday, but this makes the thought of coming to work tomorrow vomitous. (i.e. so bad it can induce vomiting) Regardless, here's hoping everything goes well with the game tonight and we beat Miss. State. In honor of gameday, I'm bumming today. The office is usually very casual on Fridays, so I'm merely adjusting the days and I'm using today as my casual day. I still took pictures, to get in the routine, but needless to say, it's not like I think this look is "hot" :)
Yesterday, I got a package in the mail from Penny's... Forgot that my last order had some back-ordered items... they came yesterday. I almost felt guilty about opening the package (almost), like I was cheating on my new adventure. But, technically I ordered these items over two weeks ago so I don't think they count. I got two pair of the same pant, one brown, one black. The pants are Worthington, I think. They have a slightly higher waist and are a slim leg. They will be right on point with the fall trends and they are long enough (sometimes a problem with Penny's pants) that I can wear them with heels and they fall correctly. I will not be able to wear them with flats, but that is okay because with my proportions, I would probably end up looking like an oompa loompa in them if I didn't have some added height. They were on clearance online for 14 bucks. I also got a nice tribal print orange dressy tank for 8. I think the pants really were a good deal because they are a nice material and a heavier weight.
Outfit Today:
Jeans: Citizen of Humanity
Top: Izod
Necklace: Sterling silver horseshoe I randomly found at Dillards and wear almost every day
Watch: Michael Kors
Shoes: Reaction by Kenneth Cole- They don't really "go" with this outfit but they were the height I needed and they are comfortable and since the jeans cover them, I went for it.

Hump Day!
Wednesday is off to a good start. Halfway through the week, which is really messed up, with a Thursday night game versus Miss State. Originally planned to wear today's outfit tomorrow, but then I realized I would be sporting maroon on gameday! Oops! Luckily I caught myself so I'm rocking the outfit today. The little top underneath is a tank, with really cute detailing; a braided neckline/straps and maroon flat sequins sewn in a stripe down the front of the shirt. You can't really see that in the pictures. I found this top this past weekend at Kohls on a clearance rack for ten bucks. I love these shoes! This is the first time I've worn them; found them on sale in Vegas. They are Sofft brand, and they are sooo comfy! Got the bracelet this past weekend at Macy's, on super sale, I like it because it has an antique feel.
Sweater: Victoria's Secret (had it forever)
