TGIF - Ally

Goodness it's cold! I just cannot get motivated to wear tights (two pairs probably!) and a skirt when it's under 25 in the morning. I know, I know. That's not cold to you gals up north (I'm looking at you, Erin!), but for these pale white legs, it's COLD. I going to make myself wear a skirt or dress next week, so cross your fingers my legs don't snap off from the chill!

In the meantime, pants!

Wrap shirt: JCP

black cami: Old Navy

Pants: Old Navy

Shoes: Sofft via Zappos.com outlet

Necklace: gift










So I've lost about 10 lbs this past month and now my pants look pretty terrible. I've not lost enough to get a new size (of course not, that'd be easy!), but just enough that I need a belt (which I forgot today). If a baggy crotch isn't motivation to lose more weight, I don't know what is!

This shirt was fished out of the Goodwill pile earlier this week. I was off work Monday so I cleaned out our guest room closet and pulled out alllllll the clothes we need to donate, stuff to sell on eBay, stuff to consign or swap, and stuff that needed to be recycled (boxes, etc). It didn't take as long as I had expected, so while pulling out Goodwill stuff, I had time to go through stuff I had set aside months (maybe years?) ago. This shirt was in there and I didn't know why. It was in good shape, still fit, and was a good color red for me. A lot of reds don't look good on me, but this one does. It photographed more orange than it is IRL because it's actually a blue-red.

Speaking of eBay, I'm going to take this moment for some shameless self-promotion. I'm selling some good stuff, ladies. Some of it pains me, but Al and I have both promised each other we'd not only downsize (get rid of at least 25% of what we own), but we'd also "raise" money. We're looking to buy at house at the end of the year so every little bit helps!

I've got Stuart Weitzmans, a Goldenbleu clutch, Etienne Aigner boots, a BCBG bag, and a few other things. I'll be posting more as the week goes on, so add me as a favorite seller and keep an eye on things!
