Staying True to My Word (Day 8)

One Dress, Two Ways

 This is the same dress I wore to my sisters engagement party. I wanted a more basic but yet put together look. I paired the dress with matching wedges, my hair in a sleek bun, and oversized gold hoops.

Shoes: Marshall's (years ago)

Staying True to My Word (Day 7)

This past weekend was my sister's engagement party! I found this beautiful lace dress that I really bought to pair with some amazing boots for the fall (will do a post when the time comes) but could not wait any longer to wear it. My original plan was to wear these fierce brown sandal pumps that I have with it but it rained the entire morning. Since the ground was going to be soft and the party was being held in the backyard, I opted for flats.

Belt: H&M (summer '12)

Staying True to My Word (Day 6)

We recently had a wedding to attend to which allowed me to wear this beautiful high-low dress from H&M. The color is a beautiful blue while the fabric is light and comfortable. The entire outfit is actually from H&M minus the shoes I wore (not pictured but were nude pumps from ALDO). All pieces were bought between spring and summer '12.

Enjoy!

This is a picture I found on Google Images that shows the full length of the dress.

Staying True to My Word (Day 5)

Today was a day for me! Every mom needs time to herself every now and then (notice the mirror is even rested upon the pack-n-play (I do not keep it there. The baby was not in the pack-n-play at the time. I simply did it to have a neutral background). This day I was headed out to the spa for a much needed haircut and facial. Since I wasn't going to have makeup on or my hair done going in, I opted for something casual.

Staying True to My Word (Day 4)

Okay, I admit it (although it's obvious), my mirror is cheap and small....my camera is bad! If this blog continues to grow, I will invest in better equipment!

Mint seems to be the color of the season right now and I have to say, it is very refreshing. It's very feminine and stands out without being too crazy. I paired the dress with a pale pink belt and nude pumps.

My Loves, My Sandals

For a mom, it is essential to have staple pieces in your wardrobe if you want to stay fabulous even when running out the door. These nude sandals have been my "go to" piece of the season. They match everything and are more glam than flip flops. The best part.......(drum roll please).......they were $7.80 at Forever 21!! Now do you see why I devoted an entire post to these beauties?! I could not find them on their website. They still have plenty of fabulous and inexpensive sandals in stock here.

Love,
Happy Feet

Staying True to My Word (Day 3)

Now this outfit by no means is a favorite of mine. Not even close!! This outfit is a "it's laundry day but you still need to leave the house" kind of outfit. I honestly even hesitate posting this outfit but I need to stay true to my word. It was paired with the same nude sandals as yesterday's outfit. There will be an upcoming post on the sandals (yes, they are post worthy). This outfit, made out of some of my least favorite pieces of clothing did however come in handy when the little one and I had to sit on the ground at the park today.

Accessories: H&M (winter 10 I think)

Staying True to My Word (Day 2)

This evening we went out to eat with some friends. I only had an hour to get ready which included showering so I needed to put together something quickly. I put my hair up in a bun and some nude gladiator sandals to go with this ensemble.

Dress: H&M (Spring 12)

Staying True to My Word (Day 1)

I mentioned two days ago that I have given myself a challenge of getting dressed everyday since I have formed this lovely habit of waking up, showering, and then returning to another pair of pajamas. Today was a rainy and very humid day. As much as this weather calls for sweats, I stayed true to my word and got dressed! Many have said something to me before out of shock, but I prefer to wear sandals when it is raining. Wet piggy toes dry much faster than wet shoes!
