This month has been so busy for me and I have lots to do the rest of it too. I have guests this weekend and the house is a wreck. It doesn’t matter how long I’m gone for work travel, Husband and The Boy become useless. Dishes aren’t done, clothes aren’t picked up, trash/recycling isn’t taken out. So now I have all that to do plus actually clean the house. BOYS ARE MESSY!

Here are my OOTDs from the past two days.

Top: J Crew Silk Tiered Cami in Toffee
Cardigan: (not pictured) J Crew Scalloped Zipper Cardi
Pants: J Crew Denim Minnie
Shoes: Brass Tack Wedges
Top: J Crew Outlet (orange and white stripes)
Pants: Express Denim
Belt: J Crew
Shoes: J Crew 
Nail Polish: Essie Chinchilly
I bought these shoes from jcbellemarie via the JCA Exchange. This is the first time I was able to wear them and I was surprised at how comfortable they are. She has them too so we are shoe twins. Thanks jcbellemarie!!

Off to clean – Have a great day!!

It’s only Tuesday and I really need it to be Friday. I traveled to my office today and found out I need to be there for training tomorrow and Thursday too. So an hour drive back home this evening and an hour drive early in the morning tomorrow. I am bushed. But here are some OOTDs from the past few days. And hopefully, there will be a J’Crewlet post tomorrow or Thursday.

This weekend was perfectly gorgeous weather. I got my first soccer sun of the season (and year). My shoulders and chest turned a little red but are tanning nicely.

This what I wore to The Boy’s soccer game.

Dress: Converse One Star from Target
Belt/Sash: Liberty of London for Target Jeffs Leaf Blue Scarf
Shoes: J Crew Caribe Espadrilles in Navy
I wasn’t going to wear a belt at all with this dress. Then I saw the scarf that I was about to return to the store and the idea just hit me to make it a belt with this dress. I love it! The dress is super comfy and casual and I have it in navy as well (navy top and bottom).
(BTW-There is still A LOT of LoL at my area Targets. Every size and item. Not too many LoL lovers in Central Texas.)

Here’s what I decided on for the shower, with your help, of course! 

Dress: J Crew Blakely Dress in Vintage Zebra
Cami: The Limited
Belt: J Crew Burnished Leather Belt
Shoes: Nine West Velas in Natural Reptile
OMG! I love these shoes! I saw these in the Beige Leather on Shopping the Closet in a post by Eleanor and knew I needed to get them. When I got to NW I saw the animal print and loved it and they were 25% off! Wheeee!
The shower went well considering the girls throwing it had never done one before. They didn’t realize that, as hostesses, they need to be serving and checking on the guests, NOT the other way around. I had my cousin finally set them straight and the bride was none the wiser. I bought her something from her Target registry but threw in a little J Crew jewelry as a little something just for her. Again, it was another beautiful day and I took my Pearl Jackie just in case but never needed it.
And here’s my SUPER CASUAL outfit for today.
 
Tee: Hand-Cut Flower Art Tee
Skirt: Black Blossom Nico Skirt
Flip-Flops: GAP from years ago
Today is another beautiful day. I’m loving it and may try to even out this tank top tan later today.
Have a great day!

I need your help. I have a wedding shower to attend this weekend in my hometown. I don’t want to wear something too nice/dressy because I certainly don’t want to outshine the bride-to-be. I have narrowed it down to three outfits, and, apparently all J Crew. (Yes, I have other clothes…I think.)

Here’s the Polyvore.

Here are the IRLs. First up, Tunique Dress with gladiator sandals.

Second A- Vintage Zebra Blakely Dress with Burnished Leather Belt and gladiator sandals

Second B – Vintage Zebra Blakely Dress with Flowerette Sash and nude heels

Third – White Shirt with Linen Sinclair skirt, Flowerette Sash and Nude peep-toe pumps

Which Outfit Should I Wear?

Sorry I haven’t been posting. My week got a little better, then it got worse. My poor sweet little Bella is having back surgery today. She has a ruptured disc and has been in so much pain. She stayed at the vet hospital last night and will be there over the weekend. She looked so sad when we left her yesterday. But when she comes home she’ll get lots of “mommy-loving” while she recuperates. I may even let Husband make bacon as a treat for her.

Here she is with her “brother” Gus.

The sun is coming out today so here’s an OOTD using my Watercolor Potpourri mini from J Crew.

An option with wedges…
Here’s what I wore for St. Patrick’s Day. Husband and The Boy both wore green on their boxers, not realizing it until later and after they got pinched. I told them if you couldn’t see it that it didn’t count.
I think most people who purchased this top from the Liberty of London for Target wore it on Wednesday.
I didn’t put this back on but this is the top part of what I wore to the office on Tuesday. I love the Burnished Olive Jackie with the Rose Vines Shirt. I think it looks great together.
Have a great weekend. Husband says he’s taking me shopping today. I haven’t been to J Crew to see the New Arrivals so he’s in for a treat/surprise/shock to see me in action.
