Really bad picture, but... I had to show off my new Skechers Shape-Ups! They're really not that crazy looking, and they didn't hurt my legs or ankles at all; despite the instruction that came with them to only wear them for 25-45 minutes at first, I wore them all day. A friend of mine has a pair that she just wears out and about, not specifically while exercising, and she said she noticed a difference in the way her jeans fit, so I figured it wouldn't hurt to give them a try!

After several unseasonably hot days, it finally cooled off - a lot! I didn't wear a jacket to work, and I was cold walking in and out. Luckily, I stayed inside all day.

Today was probably the last warm day we'll have for a while - thank goodness, it's only April, I'm not ready for all this heat!

Another sunny, warm day put me in the mood for more bright color! I had actually packed this shirt for my overnight trip last weekend, but ended up not wearing it. So since it was out anyway, I decided to wear it rather than put it back in the closet.

I usually crop photos more than this, but I needed to include my little orange cat - he looks so interested in what I'm doing!

I got a lot of mileage out of this sleeveless blue shirt recently! I wore it to a party on Saturday night, Easter dinner on Sunday night, and to work on Monday! (Don't worry, I only wore it for a couple hours on Saturday and Sunday - it was definitely clean enough to wear again.)

Also, these shoes are my new favorites. I've been wearing them out and about with jeans - they class up an outfit a bit, and they're extremely comfortable.

Remember when I went to that wedding a few weeks ago and I got a couple dress options from Target? I also picked up this cute polka dot jersey number that was a little too casual for the wedding, but I knew I'd have an opportunity to wear it sometime. So I decided to wear it for brunch on Easter, with a pink sweater to brighten it up.

I'm very happy with the dress - usually I have problems with dresses that have defined waistbands or, you know, "chest triangles," but this one fit great!

I did not like this outfit at all. It was a beautiful spring day so I wanted to wear something bright and short-sleeved, but I also needed a sweater to cover up in my cold office, and I really wanted to wear these gray suede shoes. The resulting outfit looks weirdly thrown together. Oh well.

I went out to see a band tonight, and didn't want to be messing with a jacket, so because it was pretty cold out, I wore this very warm sweater. It was just right. And I don't usually wear a cross-body purse, but it was nice to not have to worry about holding a purse on my shoulder when I was bopping around.

I realized the other day that all my cardigans are pretty much black or brown. (Okay, I have a gray one. And a purple one I got last year.) So I went out and bought one in blue and one in pink. I plan to wear the pink one with my black and white dress to Easter brunch!

As usually happens on rainy days, I ended up wearing black and gray. I also got to go out for lunch!

Not only was it Friday, it was my first day back in the office since Monday, and it was totally gorgeous outside!

I'm thinking the pointy grown-up shoes counteracted the girly pink butterfly top, yes?

Today I was preparing to go away on a two-day business trip, so I was a little busy, trying to get things done before I left.

It's suddenly warmer, and I don't know what to wear anymore! Back to my usual uniform of short-sleeved shirt and cardigan...

Remember when I said I got new cute shoes from Payless but I hadn't taken a close-up? Here's that close-up!

This week is my 5-year anniversary at my company, and my boss was in town (she is based in another state), so we got the department together and had some cake. I felt weird about it because we don't usually have celebrations for people for anniversaries, and 5 years isn't that long, but I'm pretty sure she just wanted an excuse to have a cake break :o)

The necklace is from a Tibetan shop that used to be in New Hope, PA - it's a little locket that has the Tibetan symbol for "Om" on it. I always get comments when I wear it!

I've found that this wrap top fits much better if I wear a tank underneath.

I wore a sweater for much of the day, but I did take it off in the afternoon - it was actually warm in the office!

03.08.10

The temperature is going to be in the 50s all week. I was so excited, I broke out a 3/4 sleeve sweater.

Yes, another new shoe debut today! Sorry, I don't have close-ups yet. They are adorable. I wanted some new black flats for work - these are very comfortable, and have a cute ribbon detail. Yay, Payless!

03.07.10

This wasn't really a photo-worthy outfit, I just wanted to document the fact that I got a trim between haircuts! I usually get my hair chopped once a year and spend the rest of the year growing it out, but this time I decided to get a little touch-up after a couple months. It'll still be long enough by the summer to pull it up off my neck.

Also, after not going for several months, I decided to forgive my eyebrow threading lady for being such a jerk and go back to get my brows done. Turns out, she's gone back to India. The new girl who replaced her was very nice, though :o)

If you follow me on Flickr or Twitter, you know that I was torn between two dresses to wear to a wedding today. Though I thought I'd be more comfortable in the other option, probably 90% of the internet preferred this dress, so that's what I went with. I didn't need to worry - this one was also very comfortable! (I'm keeping that second dress, though - it'll be great to wear to another event.)

Outfit for a very long day... I worked a full day, then went to a doctor's appointment, and then rushed to a wedding rehearsal followed by the rehearsal dinner. I got home 16 hours after I left! Luckily, these new gray suede flats (yes, another Payless pair!) were very comfortable!

(Yes, I know the shirt looks a little see-through, but trust me, it's not - that was just due to the camera flash!)

I might have just bought a whole bunch of shoes at Payless... whoops. But they have so many cute styles right now! And at Payless prices, you can buy a couple pairs at once. Expect several New Shoe Debuts coming up soon. Today is the first.

For some reason, I was getting a lot of compliments on my hair today. It was just kind of hanging in my face. Maybe I should let it hang in my face more often!

Shoe shots! You've probably noticed I don't wear heels, but these low wedges were great. I had to do a lot of walking today, and they were very comfy!


Even the soles are cute!
