I have an exciting giveaway that I am working on for you all. I will be posting about it on Friday so stay tuned! (hint: it has to do with digital scrapbooking!)
Thoughts about the blog.... I am thinking of changing things up a bit on my blog. I like the design and all that, but I am thinking of changing the name. There is a really horrific movie out there now with the same name and it is very disturbing as it comes up first when you search for my blog. But I don't know...
I am also wanting to do better outfit photos. But, that is really hard. I would like to do some outside and such, but I take my own photos and my camera doesn't have a remote and I don't think you can add one to it. It's a Nikon Coolpix L120. All it has is a 10 second timer that takes one photo at a time.
I am also thinking about doing an end of year wrap up post. (I know, I'm late. Whatever....) But we shall see how that goes.
I have been looking for a basic black skirt now for about a week. I don't want a suit type skirt. It has to be business casual, knee-length and sort of a straighter cut. (I don't want it hugging my booty) I also want it to not cost an arm & a leg. I'm cheap. I am looking at a price range of around $30 or cheaper. You would think this would be an easy find. But it's not. I went to Macy's yesterday and found a few. One was a suit type skirt and it was just too dressy for what I wanted. The other, they didn't have in my size, but would have been perfect. So the hunt continues.....
Today's Outfit:
Sweater - Land's End
Tank - J Crew
Skirt - Boden
Bag - Target
Bee Brooch - Gifted
Flower Brooches - Self-Made
Shoes - Walmart
6 Sweet Sayings:
I've been looking for several skirts like that, too. I want 1) dark denim 2) black and 3) another solid, like camel or olive. I have tons of really nice tops and no skirts to wear with it except for a gypsy skirt which doesn't match the style of my tops. If I find anything, I'll let you know. JCP didn't have anything, I checked online there. Maybe Torrid?
I actually found a black one and a pinstriped black one from Avenue online for $13 each. (they were on sale!) So I ordered them and we shall see if they work. You may want to check them out as well!
Good plan, I like Avenue, and they seem to have more online than they do in their stores.
Love, love, love the color of your sweater!
You would think finding a black skirt would be easier, but noooo. I was on the hunt for a while and actually found a super cute, straight black skirt with a kick-pleat in the back from the Goodwill. It's corduroy and has been perfect this winter...I guess I should start searching now for a black skirt for spring/summer!
I thought about looking at Goodwill but usually all the black skirts I have found that are in my size are faded beyond repair. Oh well....
wow! I really like this outfit! The brooches is very cute, good job!
