Day 9


Shirt: Wet Seal
Shorts: Old Navy
Belt: Uniqlo

The shirt is kind of weird as it is longer in the back and shorter in the front. Kind of like a mullet. I decided to tuck it into my shorts and wore a belt, but I felt kind of thick. I am wondering if there is any other way to wear the shirt. It's kind of leotardesque, as the back is scooped. It also is stretchy and there is also the mullet issue. Hmmmm....

On a total side note: I am starting to feel I'm hitting a wall in my creativity. Maybe because it's laundry day and I hate doing laundry. Maybe it's because I am not really that creative. Maybe it's both.

Day 8: Dinner


Dress: Lynn (Shinsaegae: gift from Mom)
Shoes: Korea

Went to dinner at Marcel's with my dad. It was soooo good. They had a foie gras special and it was so divine. So glad Mr. T took me there for my birthday last year. Thank you, Mr. T!!!! =)

Day 8


Shirt: Lacoste
Shorts: Old Navy

This is what I wore when I went golfing and sucked donkey balls. I was really had an off day. =(

This is the new pair of shorts that I got when I went to Old Navy. I justified it by saying I needed golf clothes, and this definitely fit the bill! I'm glad I got them.

Day 7


Top: JC Penney Outlet (Gift from Mom)
Belt: Attached to top
Jeans: F21
Earrings: Korea


You can't really tell, but the shirt is striped, and it's military-esque. Mr. T calls it my "muscle shirt." =) I like it, I'm not sure if it makes me look to masculine. 

This is a good segue to my quandary of whether I should take pictures with my clothes. Thoughts? What are the pros and cons?

Day 6


Tank: Merona (Target)
Vest: Sweet Soup (Shinsaegae, Korea)
Jeans: Uniqlo

I was inspired by this Oscar de la Renta look to mix the two stripes, and I like the way it looks. The tank is long and the vest is cropped so it mixes quite well.

This different use of clothing reminds me of is some post (I can't remember where I saw it) where the person said they realised by not shopping that the clothes you have really is about how to be creative with what you have, rather than trying to fill the holes you *think* you have.

In total honesty, I wonder how long I will last until I get antsy to go shopping. It worries me.

Day 5


Shirt: Mossimo (Target)
Jeans: F21
Brooches: Eclectic Threads


I bought these brooches because they were so different and there were two. I wore them a lot when I first got it, but then totally forgot about it (big surprise) and then saw Marie Claire's July 2010 "101 Ideas Under $100" did something similar with a crew neck shirt. So I added it to my shirt. The brooches are really heavy, so I think next time I think I will try and attach it to my bra. Also, I think I'm going to put the brooches higher.

I will say I first regretted buying these brooches; I will admit I felt bad leaving the store without buying anything. Regardless, the more I wear them, the more I liked my purchase. I'm hoping the other purchases I bought from the Goodwill will also be the same.

Day 4


Tunic: Korea
Leggings: Pink Rose

I love leggings. They really help cover my lady bits when clothes are too short. Like this "tunic", which is really a dress. I love this dress, but it really needed something to cover the shortness. It has a belt, but I got lazy and didn't wear it. I love that this dress is military style and that is also has a drop waist. 

I'm not a huge fan of leggings that are down to the ankles. I personally think it's too much. These leggings only go mid-calf, kind of like clam diggers. I feel this length has a better silhouette.
