Today I’m sharing my date night look from last weekend. I went for an understated simple look. Maybe I felt the need to keep it classy after this questionable fashion risk! 😉
Don’t they all look adorable and ready for a fun weekend?
As always, I’m excited to see what my chicks are all wearing this week! Link up, please link back, and try to visit other blogs so the love and support flows in all directions!
To be honest, I had no photos ready to go for my Fun Fashion Friday post today. It’s been a crazy week, taking care of a sick kitty and giving finals at school. So I asked my bestie and fellow teacher, Lynn (IG @lynnnie34) to meet me at Starbucks before school and be sure to look cute for some pics!
As a pear-shape, I’ve always stayed away from light colored pants. But I keep seeing you dolls rocking your white jeans (and it’s the next HIWM challenge) so I figured it was time to step out of my comfort zone and give some white jeans a try!
A few hints if you’re curvy on the bottom too and shopping for white jeans …
Hint #1 Tame your expectations. These will never be your go-to black pants or your flattering dark wash jeans.
Hint #2 Don’t try on anything in a junior store or junior sizes, or very light weight super stretchy fabric. Just trust me.
Hint #3 Prepare to try on a lot of pants that day. Of course if you start where I stopped, you might be luckier. I ended up with The Loft Curvy Straight Leg Jean.
What do you think?
Wore this casual look on a day trip to Carmel with the hubby.
I found this adorable vintage floral handbag at an antique market in Monterey. I fell in love with it right away. I love when something vintage echoes something so on trend … in this case, florals!
Here’s just a few of my favs from last week’s link up …
(you fab dolls make it soooo hard to only pick a few!)
Here’s Katie of Hello Katie Girl looking springy in this pretty abstract floral skirt, with a striped top and denim jacket.
Mica of Away from the Blue has been enjoying beautiful weather for awhile now in Australia. How cute and chic is she in shorts with a kimono and statement necklace?
And Pam of Over 50 Feeling 40 is the picture of classy chic in this leopard coat and red bag!
Thanks for all the gorgeous looks you shared last week. Here’s to another great link up! Link away, link back, and have fun!
We’ve had amazing weather lately in San Jose. I feel a little guilty enjoying it so much, because first of all, a lot of my blogging buddies and readers are still buried in snow, and second of all, California desperately needs rain. But since I have no control over either situation, I’m just gonna enjoy the sunny 80 degree days!
And one way I’m enjoying the weather is by wearing bright pretty patterns for spring!
Look out, Dolls, I’m on a winning streak! Check out this Topshop plaid blanket scarf I won from a More Pieces of Me giveaway. Thanks, Caryl! In December I won a fab LEL sweater from Gracey’s Fashion for Giants (post here). Not sure if two wins in three months qualifies as a lucky streak, but I’m going to assume it does and get ready for my next prize. Hey, a little positive thinking never hurt anyone!
I never did get around to buying a blanket scarf, so I was excited to win one! Super cozy!
Riding boots – Nine West (great option) Jeans – Gap Always Skinny Sunnies – Ralph Lauren
I always dress cute to sit in my backyard and read Vogue.
Don’t you?!
Now on to your fab looks from last week’s link up ….
Lea of High Heeled Style is also on a winning streak! Love this Karina dress she won from Not Dead Yet Style! Karina should hire her to model, don’t you think? FAB!
When I saw this outfit that Maricel of My Closet Catalogue shared, I wrote and told her that I wanted to wear this outfit this weekend! It’s true! Funky, casual, and fun!
