Jailbird Glam/Turquoise and White

Day Nineteen: A new striped dress from TopShop. Two things I'm realizing about my wardrobe as I'm doing this challenge is that, 1.) I wear a lot more black than I thought, and 2.) I rock a lot of stripes. I'm okay with that.

I wore this dress with plain black flip flops for a birthday party, and threw on an emerald cardigan when it got a little chilly towards the end of the night. I skipped jewelry since the stripes were pretty bold on their own.

 Day Twenty: A new dress from Dorothy Perkins. It's a lot looser fitting than I was expecting it to be, but sometimes that's nice. I added the belt to break up the colours a little bit, and wore cream opened-toed heels.

Only ten more days to go on the Dresses/Skirts Challenge. It's getting tougher since I only have one or two more outfits already planned ahead for.

Black, White, and Red All Over

Day Eighteen: One of those mornings where I started out wearing one thing, and ended up in about two or three different outfits until I decided on this dress. Mostly because it matched my new lipstick. I'm still not sure how I feel about the lipstick, since it's not usually something I wear, but it is kind of fun.

Pink and Orange Striped Maxi

Day Sixteen: I got up at five this morning to go register one of my kids for Kindergarten. I knew we'd be standing in line for a while, and that it would be pretty cold, so I sort of broke my challenge and wore pants because I didn't want to freeze to death. After the two oldest boys were at school later that morning, I went back home and "dressed."


I paired it with silver flats, and fun pink beaded hoop earrings.

Jacket: Ralph Lauren, Dress: Mossimo.

Black and Blue

Day Fifteen: Just keeping it simple with a black pencil skirt and blue top today.


On the plus side, I was digging through some bins at the bottom of my closet and found these shoes that I had totally forgotten about!

Skirt: Nordstroms, Top: Nicole Miller (JC Penny), Shoes: BCBGirls

Today also marks the halfway point of my challenge! Here's to fifteen more skirts and dresses...

Cruella

Day Twelve: Yesterday was kind of a lazy (for me) Saturday, so I wanted to wear something really comfortable.
