Okay listen, I know it's still 90 degrees out and Christmas is a long time away, but I feel a little bit like a present in this gold skirt and red top. I wasn't sure I'd like this, and I can definitely say it's not my favorite outfit ever, but I don't hate it. I think the necklace and sandals add a little something to make it better for me.
HEY - did you read my post yesterday about signing up for this year's Blogging for Breast Cancer Awearness Challenge? Well...go read it! And sign up! Because really, who doesn't need more pink in their life?
YAY pockets! |
I think this year I'm going to do what I said I was last year, which is throw in a few guest posts from bloggers who have been through or know someone who has been through a battle with breast cancer. I want to share stories of hope and inspiration. I have a couple of ladies ready to post for me but if you have your own story or know of someone else, please let me know.
You guys...I know I've said this before, and I can't really get into details, but I'm just really, really happy right now and that's a good feeling. {But if I start to get annoying with this, someone please tell me. Nicely, yes, but tell me. I don't want to be irritating.} Granted, I'll be even happier when I get my MacBook back with a brand new hard drive, but even that isn't bothering me very much because I'm happy about the other things in my life. So...yay!
I hope you're happy too. :)
Today's outfit:
Gold Skirt: TargetRed Blouse: From my friend Nicole
Sandals: From my mom
Necklace: Gift from ML
I think everyone could use a little more happiness in their life so I am glad to hear that you are!
ReplyDeleteI love your sparkly dress. And you're right, with a few more sparkles, this would be a perfect holiday outfit!
A present :) Ha! You're too funny!
ReplyDeleteI kind of love this outfit, actually. The red looks great on you, and EVERYBODY should own a sparkly skirt...they're just so much fun!
I'm glad you're in such a good place right now, whatever the reason. You definitely deserve it!
I like this look and did not think Christmas at all...it is a simple, classic, fun look and I believe just right for the workplace.
ReplyDeleteThis outfit doesn't look like Christmas at all! It is amazing! The skirt is so adorable with the gold specks in it. And if you are happy, spread the word and joy! We could all use a little happiness :)

ReplyDeleteI think that outfit looks so cute, red and gold are perfect fall colors !! Yesterday I actually put on a red and gold top, and at first I thought christmas, but then I actually loved the look through the day !!
ReplyDeleteI think looking like a present is not necessarily a bad thing! You look cute! And you could definitely Christmas-ify the outfit by adding some sparkly gold shoes and blingin' accessories. =)
ReplyDeleteIt's so good that you're so happy! Can't wait to hear all about it :)
ReplyDeleteI saw something online yesterday that said, "It's September now... That means I can start decorating for Christmas, right?" I love Christmas and I can't wait, so I love the red and gold!
I'm so glad you're happy! I actually think the lighter skirt looks great with the red. I didn't even think holiday until I read the text. I'm so glad to hear you're happy! Congrats. ;D
