{Wear} Rework

Hello and happy Thursday, lovely readers!

Today, the clouds stayed away from the sun just long enough for me to snap a few photos of my look today. I haven't been shopping for over a month now, so I'm trying to get creative with how I get dressed in the mornings. You've seen this dress before here and reworked here. This dress has proven to be a wardrobe staple and I'm really glad I decided to buy it.



 
Dress: Ann Taylor

Okay, you need to send some of that shopping will and resistance my way. A whole month!! That is fabulous!! I struggle just to make it a whole week, lol.

Black and white is such a great color combo, so I'm sure you can get lots more wear and remixing out of that great dress.

Believe me, I'm having a difficult time. Every Tuesday offers new temptation when Anthro has a sale.

Oh, congrats! I didn't shop for a whole month way back when I completed Kendi's 30 for 30 in the winter. It's quite an accomplishment. I'm trying not to shop too much over the summer, but there's just too much temptation with all this time I have. But that's how reading kicked in for me. That, and watching a lot of tv and movies.

Ok... first, thanks for your lovely comment, I was really touched! Secondly, I'm amazed by your shopping ban! Way to go girl!!! You're a naturally elegant, good looking lady, with a killer body and the sweetest smile! You look amazing, new clothes or not!! I used to be a powerful shopper when I had a life and a job (a century ago...). I had to go through a lot of hard times to understand that no matter how much I shop, I will never be truly happy, unless I change my priorities! Last thing I bought was a fedora more than 5 months ago and I feel truly happy about that!! Kisses dear!

Hi Kimmie! I found your blog through Jessica at Monster Cakes, and I love your style! It's ladylike with a personal spin, my favorite sort of look. You have great willpower; Like Angela, I can barely make it through the week without buying something small.

Hi Kimmie!

I just stumbled upon your blog and I am in love! You put such a creative twist on polished work attire...and you've given me so many great ideas to incorporate into my own style.

I too own the Sanctuary vest but never get as much wear out of it as you have. I will definitely be trying some of your ideas soon!

You've now been added to my ever growing list of daily reads!
