It was a short week due to unforeseen circumstances…

Wednesday

It was the first day back to work after the you-know-what…it was COLD…and I thought I would have Camera Club, so I dressed accordingly in a cozy mahogany boucle turtleneck sweater from Ulla Popken. It’s no longer available but here are some comparable items…

And here I am trying to knock that kidney stone right out!

THURSDAY

Black Asos dress, size 22. Old. | Taupe Old Navy cardigan. Old. Comparable here and here. | Me Too taupe Cambrie flat.

Don’t look at me. I’m a mess. Somehow all my alarms were off this morning and I just happened to wake up at 7:17am. I’m usually in my car to leave for work between 7:26-7:30. I had to change my original outfit to this one, so..bad hair, no makeup. Somehow the magic of photography is making it all look a little better than it really was. Sometimes you’re given a gift. Thank you, Universe.

ANYWAY. This is a good outfit. BASE. It’s a good outfit BASE. I like the simplicity and neutral tones. But even I know it needs a little sumpn sumpn. A multicolored scarf, some pendant necklaces, some gold jewelry on my ears and wrists. I’ve been looking for a very thin black-and-white striped turtleneck and I think I might even layer that under the dress next time as it gets colder. But it has promise for future wearings.

Friday

H&M Tencel dress, size 3x. Also available in straight and petite sizes (and in black!)  | Rainbow wine fleece duster cardigan, size 2x. Old. Comparable here and here.  | Me Too Audra suede chestnut loafer flats

Friday. Finally. It was a little milder today. I had a dr’s appt scheduled and no camera club so I was able to wear a dress. I really like this combination. I don’t wear wine much but I do like it with this faded denim color Tencel dress. And it was between the chestnut Me Too loafers and the taupe Me Too (oh! ha, hadn’t even realized that) flats from yesterday. They both worked, I just went with these cuz I wore the other ones yesterday.

Short week. And now I’m going to bed.
