Ensemble du Jour

I realized that I have been sadly lacking on talking about any thing I've been wearing lately. I can't believe I've let such an oversight happen!

Frankly, I've just been swamped with work and outside activities - beekeeping classes, town stuff, bringing work home, taking days off to lobby at the state capitol, planning for new members of the family and looking into all kinds of trips around the globe. Plus trying to plan out more meals and I have at least three books I'm in the middle of.

Frankly I'm spent.

So to be totally slack, here is sample of outfits I've worn over the past few weeks. Each links back to the Polyvore page with details. And I have a ton more photos on Flickr.

Some of these are representative pieces, so let me know if there is an item you have a question about. As you can see this sort of gets me through January. Maybe I'll catch up more over the weekend.

By the way, I'm on Twitter all of the time. If you want to catch up with me there, I hope you send me a tweet!

Ensemble du Jour

Again, the days have been getting away from me. So I figured I should catch up on the outfits pronto!

After organizing my armoire out last weekend, I thought I would create outfits around some of my fun new accessories which have just been arriving. Something other than shoes for once!

On Monday, I wore a very colorful outfit. Everything was centered around my new Candy fascinator from WhichGoose. To go with it I wore a red top from Gap, a dressy denim pencil skirt, red tights and my Hetty Rose Ella mary janes.

I think the heels, being equally as colorful, were a good match for the hair piece. Both are colorful although it strikes me as funny how such an old fabric and the new pom-poms actually work well together.

I could say the heels get equal focus... I'd been thinking about wearing them with colorful tights for a while now.



Yesterday I was wanting to go the opposite - a bit more streamlined but playing with texture. I wore a grey jersey top that has a bit of silver metallic in the fabric, my new Kapow Wow neck ruffle (also in grey jersey), a black pencil skirt, black ribbed tights and Aerosole buckle heels in black patent. They happen to be one of my favorite shoes to wear. They are comfortable and versatile.

This neck ruffle is so cool! You can wear it a ton of different ways and is amazingly soft. I think it's a great option to a scarf or wrap for keeping your neck warm in the winter. Plus, I just love ruffles!



The other day I talked about seeing rosettes popping up in fashion, well today I got the chance to wear one of my new pieces from Shoe Missy. They are just adorable in person.

I wore the black and white plaid with my grey and black rugby stripe boyfriend cardigan from delia's. Underneath I wore a black camisole over one of my sale mini-skirts from Old Navy.

It was kind of crummy out so I wore my black Target flats with the big "jewels" on them.

This rosette looks blue and black here but it is actually black and white. I tried to take a picture of it on the sweater, because it looked so cute but my camera is just dying! I think I'm going to have to get a new one very very soon.




Now, I've been doing good so far this week actually planning outfits. What am I going to wear tomorrow? I've stayed up late too many nights in a row and my brain is just fried.

Maybe I'll think of something to wear with some of my fun knee-highs.

Hmmmmm......
