Another really cute dress from Target. Looks like it may be on the short side. Geez, I wish they would just post the length!!!
At Target for $24.99!
Is it just me or does this look like a perfect swimsuit cover up? Yes, I know… it’s pretty covering for the beach, but I get burned so easily, I tend to lean towards being more covered if I’m not in the pool anyways.

Another cardigan. This one costs a little bit more but I think it’s worth it. This pretty pattern would look so stinkin cute with a pink ruffly tank underneath! I love it!

It’s nice to own a few cardigan’s to layer over tank tops and t-shirts. I love this royal blue color and holy cow it is only…

This might be cute for a Valentine’s dinner. Maybe with some super cute jeans and a pink hair accessory? But what about shoes? Any ideas?

Okay, so this outfit is SO cute! I was in WA last week and Ashley and I went to a wedding and this is what she wore! I was about to die because of how cute it was. Her outfit was with a dress just like this one, but with a denim colored skirt to it, and white button up underneath and a green cardigan, cowboy boots, and a headband in her hair. It was adorable. Anyways, the link to this dress was sent to me by Jessica, and I thought that I should show you how cute it could be! (oh yeah and it was even cuter on Ashley because she is 6 months pregnant… oh man that girl knows how to dress!)

Pretty much on a daily basis we get emails about tights/leggings and how to wear them. Can they be worn with open toed shoes, how can I pull them off with boots, how do I know what to wear with my colored tights, and pretty much, what are the rules to wearing them? So I put this outfit together with open toed shoes, and colored/textured tights. Would you wear it? (More to come on how to wear colored tights/leggings! And thanks to Emily E. for the link to this dress!)

After a couple months of debating I decided to buy a pair of these adorable rainboots. I live in the Northwest (where it rains non-stop) and was sick of the bottom of my pants always getting soaked. I figured for $25… why not add something different,fun and functional to my wardrobe? Target.com has a HUGE selection. You should check it out!
I love all the maxi dresses that are in style right now. Most of them are spaghetti strapped or strapless… so I’m really excited about this one!

PLEASE HELP!
First off, I love your blog. I am so happy to have finally found some like-minded women when it comes to being fashionable yet appropriate. My husband says I dress like a frumpy housewife – which I am, by the way! I am a 33yo mom to 5 little ones. I barely have time to get THEM dressed and off to wherever they need to go, let alone worry about dressing myself! I recently completed my first triathlon (and in the training process lost nearly 50 pounds and dropped from a size 14/16 to an 8/10!!). I am on the taller side (5ft 7in), but still with some mommy belly (hey, 5 pregnancies in 6 years will do that to you) and larger thighs/hips (mostly genetics, but also from biking). Husband just came home from work and said we have a dinner with the boss coming up! YIKES!!! I have no clue what to wear. This dinner will be with a bunch of new physicians and their spouses at the Department Chairman’s house. It is probably business casual dress. What do I wear? Thanks for your help!

GWN, congratulations on your first triathlon and getting in shape! I love hearing success stories like yours! I have put together a very casual outfit however, I stayed away from blue jeans to help it not be too casual. The boots I put in the outfit (for this outfit) would be worn under the jeans, however, they would look super cute paired over some skinny jeans! I love the blouse and the pop of color it will give this outfit. Have fun shopping for your new figure and I’m sure you will look amazing!
