Tonight's gig is for the Santa Sisters, which requires black leggings, black boots and a black long-sleeved tee to wear underneath red tunics.
I don't particularly feel like changing, so I wanted to find an outfit that could incorporate those things except, oh WAIT - it's Thursday and that means jeans at work. I don't have to wear them but I promised a co-worker that I would, so that she isn't the only person wearing jeans. :) Now I had to add jeans to my list of required pieces.
I would have worn my skinny jeans but I don't think I would've been able to zip up the boots over leggings AND jeans.
So I'm wearing black leggings under my jeans, black knee-high boots and a black long-sleeved tee under my purple sweater. I was almost going to wear another black sweater on top of this but I really wanted more color in this outfit, so I picked the purple. I don't have very many sweaters to choose from.
If only I could have worn anything at all that I wanted from my closet, without having to incorporate so many specific pieces into one outfit. That woulda been nice. Eh, oh well. And then I couldn't find any jewelry that made me happy with this sweater/neckline. Geez. I'm whiny today, sorry! :)
Have a great Thursday, everyone!
Today's outfit:
Jeans: Kohl's
Black Tee: Charlotte Russe
Purple Sweater: Target
Black Belt: Kohl's (came with a dress)
I think you look great. Sometimes simpler is better :)
ReplyDeleteI think it works, but I understand the feeling of not liking an outfit because you're required to wear so many specific things. Hope your gig goes well tonight!
ReplyDeleteI hope you have a good gig tonight. Also you outfit is cute. My only question is? aren't you going to be super hot wearing all of that.

I think you look great but I understand not feeling like yourself in something. Have fun tonight!
ReplyDeleteI like the laid back look on you, it's nice to change things up every now and again! I will email you a picture this weekend after I go to the nutcracker!
ReplyDeleteLove the colour of your top
ReplyDeleteSuper cute!! Your outfit is fabulous! Especially with all those constraints too! Have fun at your gig!! :)
ReplyDeleteYou look great! :)
ReplyDeleteYou know, I think we all need to see a picture of you in your caroling outfit. You said it was Dickens-like? Or am I mistaken?? A Dickens-like caroling outfit would be so much fun to wear!
You look so pretty in purple, I just love that sweater!
ReplyDeleteApplause for so much thought that goes into your outfit! Lovely purple on you.
ReplyDeleteOh, no, makes me sad you don't like this one because I think it looks lovely! Between the color and the cut of the top there's a huge dose of feminine pretty. Great with no jewelry necessary.
ReplyDeleteI love all the purple you wear.
ReplyDeleteI really love this.
