My five day fashion challenge started off with a bang. I'll admit, I was a little whiny about it this morning when I got up and I was tired and cranky. I just wanted to throw on the old favorite jeans, Uggs, a sweatshirt and run out the door. But after a small internal pep talk, I came up with this:
Thrifted gray thermal
Green vintage mini dress
Leopard print tights (Target)
Vintage Frye cowboy boots (etsy)
I went to take my kids to school and, of course, ran into my best friends, (dropping off their kids), in the hallway. I was so happy to see them in their non-jeans (although Amy was wearing a denim dress, I told her that was OK).
Adriane in her corduroy flares, cowboy boots and puffy vest
Amy in her denim dress, cowboy boots and quilted jacket.
My outfit, with a 70s duster (from the 360 Ecotique) and my fringe bag.
The silly thing was, it wasn't hard or uncomfortable. I felt cute and I didn't feel overdressed or out of place. What on earth is so appealing about jeans? It is decided. This is a great challenge for me. If anything I get to show off some clothes that don't get a lot of wear in my closet. And who knows? After this week, maybe I won't be so quick to grab for the same old boring pair of jeans.
