Happy Monday! I’m starting the week with Holly and all of you! I hope you’ll link up with us for Hello Monday!
This is not my typical Hello Monday post because our weekend was swim/golf Saturday and swim/golf Sunday. My week was good, but it was a lot of swim, golf, and soccer with late nights. You’ve seen that quite a bit and I have two posts I was planning for Tuesday, so I bumped one to today. Amy is now hosting Fashion Files and I wanted to start linking up with that again.
I haven’t bought many new clothes lately and that feels good! My closets and drawers are pretty full and I like a lot of my clothes. I don’t buy many trendy things, which I like but sometimes it leaves me feeling a little insecure. I know what I like to wear and feel comfortable in it, but there are events when I want to be a little trendier. I try to talk myself through it without impulse buying something else. So, all that to say most of my clothes are not new but I am still sharing them. The theme of what I’ve been wearing is a quote from Lilly. She’s brilliant, always!
Our weather has been all over the place, summer hot, winter cold, and a little spring thrown in between. I have been trying to wear some bright colors while staying warm. I also have an old lady foot situation – degenerative fat pad under my big toe joint – so I wear sneakers a lot to keep it from hurting. Here we go…
And that is how despite the forecast, I am living like it’s spring! This week’s forecast will have me reaching for some warmer, springier clothes again.
That was fun! I did notice that I need to figure out how to pose in wide legs pants. These are the best/most flattering poses in each outfit and there were quite a few that went straight to the delete file. How do you take a good picture in wide leg pants? Is it because my legs are short or I am wearing flats? What should I do? Be sure to check out Amy’s post tomorrow for more fun fashion posts. If you blogged today, please link up with us below! I can’t wait to see what you’re writing! I’ll be back tomorrow with the books I read in April, so I hope you’ll be back! Have a great day full of sunshine and books!
I love the navy with the bright orange cardigan. I won’t give any advice on posing for a fashion selfie as I can’t manage even a regular selfie most of the time : ) We’re warming up more slowly this spring, but I know the heat is coming so I’m okay with it. Have a nice week!
Yay – So happy you are linking up! I am going to set the link here pretty soon!
Obsessed with all of your Lilly! The navy and orange look fabulous together too
Lots of cute outfits! Our weather has been much the same (just a tiny bit lower on each end). I too have a hard time posing with wide legged pants and having them look good even though I’m pretty sure they look just fine in person.
Love all your colorful clothing! The blue and gold spring cardigan is lovely!
I love the cardigan. It’s a beautiful color.
I love all your Lilly and those green loafers! So cute! You have the Amazon jeans! Love them on you! I think maybe just spread your legs a bit or pop one of your knees? I’m not the person to ask! Haha! I’m sorry about your toe situation. I love the Vionic sneakers and I am thinking about the Crocs in that style. I think it’s called the Miami. Thank you so much for linking up!
