Day 15. Down the other side.. now I count 15, 14, 13.. days left of the challenge. It is snowing today and people here are never expecting it. Road warnings and office closures. What the heck, I came home, it's a good excuse to work from home for the rest of the day. It was tricky to get photos today, I had to act
FAST, perhaps this is good practice for becoming a National Geographic photographer? LOL. Let me say, I don't like these pants. I did't before and I don't now. I thought if I forced myself to wear them during the challenge I would find creative ways to wear them. NOT. Boring! They go bye bye in 15 days.
As you can tell, I came home, stripped down and got on the couch with my book. Now I am working though, really, I am. :). Ella Fitzgerald, candy cane lane green tea and me. Thats the rest of my day. Oh yeah, and Deze, our cat. Will be bye to see whatcha all wearin today for the challenge, and my other fav bloggers great outfits!!
Remix Items: Black capris, green sweater, long sleeve white t-shirt, brown knee high boots.

ReplyDeleteaha you got snow now! I think that is is great that you were trying to get yourself to like those pants, but now you know you don't want them. I agree with everyone else, your coat is awesome!

I love your first picture! Your outfit is great and the background is amazing! Even though you hate the pants, I think you rocked them with the boots!
ReplyDeletehi Jodi, i'm so glad you visited me, because your blog is gorgeous!
ReplyDeletemaybe we can share some tips, i've been thinking about doing a triathlon forEVER but i'm too lazy to do the swimming training. instead, i stick to what i know, and that's running (and biking).
i <3 my toe shoes. they are SUPER comfortable. i know you read about my first running experience with them, and i attempted running the day after and it was NOT HAPPENING. i didn't run in them again until about a week later and i only got about a half mile before changing into my old running shoes (that i carried in a camelbak w/ the water pouch).
the only thing is this: i wish i had gone up a size, i liked the tight fit of the 39's, and thought the fact that my left big toe barely grazed the end of the pocket wouldn't bother me too much, and it doesn't (well at least not that much). BUT it's cold now, and i want to wear socks, and i can't :( i really think i should have sized up, but then again i can't know for sure because i felt like i would be tripping over all the extra space in all the toes except my big toe.
a good website to look at is birthdayshoes.com
perhaps i should have emailed you all this? oh well! hopefully someone else can benefit from this info as well :)
OH! also i am loving your outfit, but i get that you don't like the pants, i bet a tighter style tucked in your boots would have been amazing. other than that i SUPER love the classic look you've got going on!
Hi there. I also love your boots. I am such a sucker for a good pair of boots, I think it comes from a love of being warm in a cold climate. I will get better about posting photos, I'm always nervous that they won't turn out well. I'll be posting about ten on Friday.
ReplyDeleteP.S. Argyle socks make any day better. I love them and will wear mine tomorrow.
Wow, your photos are beautiful! Thanks for visiting my blog, and I love your coat!
ReplyDeleteI've been trying to comment and my iPad always freezes after I hit publish commemt! But, I am not giving up!
