What I Wore Wednesdays





Happy Wednesday! I'd like to say that spring has arrived, but it hasn't really. It's still pretty chilly here in Iowa. I hope it's warmer where you are.

In case you are looking forward to me smiling cheesily into the camera, this is your lucky day!

I was just thinking about something the other day. My husband used to say to me, "Are you going to wear that to the store?" He would say it in a nice, yet concerned voice. Usually it was because my jeans had a hole in them or the hems were raggedy. I would always think to myself, "Who cares?", because, I didn't. I don't know if I was just tired or because I hadn't shopped for clothes in months. Dave is a great husband. He was always encouraging me to shop. I just didn't. (I think I saved him a ton of money now that I think about it.) I would almost have rather done anything than walk around a mall and try on things.

Now with the internet, I still don't have to walk around the mall. It's awesome. I wait for sales online and just shop at T.J. Maxx and the like when I absolutely have to try on something. Hopefully, I still save us a ton of money.

All of the below came from things I already had and please ignore the state of the bathroom behind me. I tend to forget all about that when I'm in the zone, you know. lol







Now that I look at this collage, I can tell you that most of it did come from T.J. Maxx, Old Navy, and ebay. (The coral scarf was something my husband brought back for me while on a ministry trip to the Philippines.)

Enjoy the cheese-y smiles. I always laugh when I'm doing this. It really is helpful, though. Sometimes I'm surprised how really bad something might look on me or be pleasantly surprised. It's always fun, though.

Have a great week! I especially bless all the moms reading. You are wonderful!

  3. I haven't done a WIWW in about a year, but I've been thinking lately it might be time to bring some back. I could use a little motivation in dressing for the everyday! You are adorable, as always! (And thanks for the comment on my blog, btw!)
