Hair Apparent

Don’t worry, it’s still me. I’m just a little blonder and with more layers (in my hair, that is).

20120819-195213.jpgNormally I don’t like super-high wedges because they look and feel clunky and heavy. So imagine my excitement to find these babies  – they cut the clunk right out of them! I get to be 5’7″ (at least) and still walk like a normal upright human being. Still a bold shoe choice, of course, but for $15, a risk I will gladly take!

I wore this to get my herr did, and then on a date to the Melting Pot (celebrating my wife’s promotion). A glass of pinot noir and pots of melted cheese and chocolate? Good times.

Time Crunch

20120801-182803.jpgI bought this dress a few weeks ago and hadn’t gotten around to wearing it until yesterday. It’s cute and quite flattering on its own, but I wanted to wear it to work with some kind of jacket or cardigan over it. Well. After staying up until midnight watching women’s gymnastics (yay USA! but sorry Russia…those girls looked so sad), I was sleepy and running late on Wednesday morning. I had grand plans to find something unique to pair with this dress, but I had approximately negative 7 mintues to figure it out, and I think the time crunch messed with my head. I didn’t like anything I tried on, so I fell back on my trusty white cardigan. The same thing happened with accessories…so I ended up with simple silver earrings and necklace, and my new white Anne Klein watch.

I was kinda meh about this outfit and disappointed with myself in the morning, but as the day went on, it kinda grew on me. I mean it might not be the greatest thing I’ve ever worn, but I can’t be awesome every day – OK, who am I kidding; I totally can.

So here’s the question: Do you keep changing until your outfit is perfect, no matter how late it makes you? Or do you come to your senses, tell yourself to stop being ridiculously vain, and get the hell out of the house?
