Good evening, Everyone! After posting several blogs per day for the last few days, I feel like a slacker for just now posting and for this being my only post today. But hey, is better than I've done for most of the last year, so I'm still calling it a win! Here's what I wore today!
Dress
Green palm leaf dress, Charming Charlie
Once again, I cannot race about Charming Charlie enough! I just got A TON of new clothes there, but I'm already excited about the next time we go back! I thought I was going to have to pay full price for this dress (which was still awesome at $35!), but when it rang up on sale I got to go get a few more things for only a few dollars more! How awesome is that?!?! It was between this and a navy dress with a racer back crochet top. I went with this one because I don't have any other high-low dresses and the navy dress was a similar style to several tops I have from Charming Charlie. I'm glad I went with this one because it makes me feel very fancy and I have great accessories to match from Cameroon! It's also really comfy and lightweight, so it'll be great for warm summer days (and weddings!).
Accessories
Thick brown belt, Kohl's
This belt is actually stolen from another skirt that doesn't fit, but I snagged the belt (seeing a pattern of belt thievery yet?). I tried on a different belt that was stolen from a different dress, but decided I liked this one best. The whole outfit reminded me of Cameroon, thus, the jewelry...
Jewelry
Wooden earrings
I got these at the artists market in Cameroon. My ears are very sensitive to low quality metals, but for some reason, these didn't hurt my ears at all! I left them in all day! It was fun wearing dangles! I think they look great with my short hair!
Wooden bangles
Another score from Cameroon! I love these simple, understand bangles! Just a little color and texture added to my outfit (not that it needed much with such a busy pattern on the fabric and multi-textured belt). Overall, I think it all worked well together. I loved being able to incorporate jewelry into this outfit. Maybe I need a little costume jewelry after all... I think it made this look so much better having a little.
Shoes
Nude wedges, Off Broadway Shoes
You've seen these before, but here they are again! My nude wedges (with a little glitz) were purchased last Spring before Michael's and my trip to Mexico. This outfit would have also looked great with nude pumps (still on the list). Maybe I'll include a picture in this blog of the ones I'm looking at on Amazon! They are super sexy!
Well, that covers it for today! Only one new piece purchased, the rest I had in my closet already! I'm not getting to include the jewelry in my total piece count, but here's the rest of the items and the numbers for everything else we've had so far in the last 5 days...
