What I Wore Wednesday...A Cheetah Print Dress

 

Outfit Details:  Dress: Hand me down (Originally Target);

Tights: Hand me down (Assets from Target); Booties: JC Penney

Red Coat (above):Gordman's, three seasons ago

 

This dress was originally a high-low dress, which I really do not like on me.  I took it to my sewing machine and evened out the back a little bit, and I have loved it!  The very best thing about this dress is that it was FREE because a very dear friend sees to it that at least twice a year I get a couple of bags full of hand me downs from her closet!  Everyone needs a friend like this :)

 

Happy Wednesday!

Blush

 

Outfit Details: Sweater: Hand me down (original unknown);

Gray Skinnies: Old Navy; Wedges: Ross; Earrings: Gift

Coat: Hand me down (original Target)

 

Blush is not a color that I wear very often - in fact, I think this is the only item of clothing that I have in this color - but the night that I wore this I got so many compliments on it that I am thinking I need to have a few more things in this color!  I guess that means I need to go shopping???

Happy Wednesday!

What I Wore Wednesday...A Cheetah Cardigan

Cheetah print is probably my favorite ever.  When a friend of mine gave me this cheetah print cardigan in a bag full of hand me downs, I was ecstatic about it and wore it the very next Sunday night to church.

Outfit Details: Cardigan (hand me down, original unknown); WhiteTee: Target;

Black Jeggings: Old Navy; Booties: Payless

Let's talk about these jeggings for a sec.  Why didn't I know these existed before now?!  I bought these a couple of weeks ago at Old Navy and I LOVE them.  They have an elastic waist.  Did you read that correctly?  Yes, you did.  An.elastic.waist.  I thought that was only okay when you're either pregnant or 80+.  But, no, ON said it's okay and so I am just dying over these.  They fit awesome (more like a jean than a legging), and the top is surprisingly slimming - and to top it off, there are no bulky zippers or buttons if you're wearing a slim fitting tshirt! I'll take these in every color they come in, thank you very much!!!

I have really gotten my money's worth out of these earrings!  I bought them at Body Central (which has closed in my local mall - so sad) and I have worn them so much!  I also really love my initial necklace (you can't see it very well) that I got from Charming Charlie, as well as this beautiful necklace that my mom got me for Christmas.

Isn't it so fun to accessorize with Cheetah print?!  I'm pretty sure it will always be a favorite!

Happy Wednesday!

Hand me downs

One of my favorite things about having three sisters is being able to share clothes. We always seem to be switching clothes back and forth between each other! We have all said that sometimes after we see a different way that someone else wears something we have given them we decide we want it back!This past weekend Jesse and I took the kids out to run some errands and I wore a top that Katie had passed down to me.

Top: Hand me down from Katie; Jeans: Strawberry;

Necklace: Target; Boots: Christmas gift-I think from Target
