*******************
I had fun documenting what I wore this past week & this is what I discovered:
1. I buy most of my clothes at Target, NY & Co and Ann Taylor Loft
2. I wear a lot of black, gray & blue.
3. I own a lot of cardigans.
4. Taking pictures of myself is awkward.
5. Our bathroom has terrible lighting! yikes.
This was fun, I will definitely participate in this again!

Jennifer said...

Your clothes are so cute! I am in desperate need of some shopping. Nothing I have fits me right anymore. Ugh!!!

Erin @ BringingUpBurns said...

You are so cute! Every tank top I was like..."Oooh! Love that...gonna have to try and recreate" ;-)

Taking solo pictures of myself is one of my least favorite things to do! Smile? Don't smile? Look at the camera? Side glance? It's just weird. You pulled it off tho! XO

Kelli said...

I love this idea. I have been watching over at the Pleated Poppy as well and thought it would be so much fun! Hopefully I can get my act together this next week and partcipate as well! I think it is wonderful, and gives great shopping ideas!! Gotta love the tanks!!

Oh my gosh so happy I stumbled upon your blog, it is adorable! I love your Target tank in your Friday picture! And I'm a weensy bit jealous of your bathroom, it is so light and airy!

LauraC said...

There is no good place for me to take pics of myself! You look so put together every day. Working at home I look like a slob.

So is that a battery grip on your camera and do you like it?

Bethany at 3SonsPlus1 said...

That is so much fun! You look so good in...everything!! :) I haven't gotten my act together yet either, but I've been thinking about joining in the fun for a couple weeks now....maybe you just inspired me!

Dana at StrawberryTart! said...

Good job. I love it all. I really need to go to NY & Co. I haven't been in years.

I love all of your outfits! Cute and comfortable. And you have great necklaces!

I have a "Bejeweled Wednesdays" link up for gals like you who like to coordinate jewelry into their outfits. I'd love it if you'd add your link to it and share in the sharing of accessorizing ideas!

LOVE IT! You're adorable, Mel. Love some of those tops!

So, here I am, giving you the last little nudge to do it and I didn't do it. Doh! But see, I don't have a full-length mirror. Maybe I'll start a new one called, "What-I-Wore-On-My-Upper-Half-Wednesday." Catchy, huh?

MommyMeagan said...

ooo, love your outfits! such a cute dresser. You are inspiring me to get more cardigans. you just look so cute in them!

Kimmie @ Sugar and Dots said...

You're the CUTEST. The end.

I LOVE thursday & friday's ruffly tanks! You're super cute! :)

Mrs. Kirbyface said...

You look so cute! I want to do this as soon as the weather gets cold! My fall clothes are so much cuter than my summer clothes!

Becks said...

We have the same wardrobe...

California Wife said...

YAY, so glad you're doing this! Are you allowed to wear jeans all week long? If so, I'm so jealous!

Jordan said...

Super cute outfits!!! Thanks for stopping by my blog. I think you should definitely do this again (and I do not think there is anything wrong with wearing a lot of black!)!

Michele said...

Can I trade closets with you? You have great style! I also agree that it's super awkward taking photos of yourself. My husband laughs at me. Thanks for stopping by my blog. We have an uncanny amount of things in common. So nice to meet you!

Genn said...

Fun post Mel! I've been wanting to do it for a while now too. You've inspired me! I'll do it soon.

Your outfits were all so cute, and all looked like something I would wear too. I've always had a thing for fashion. I say that is why I work, so I can support my fashion habit. :)

TDM Wendy said...

Oh how i wish you would have thrown a joker in there. Like a total clashing outfit or something. next time please. maybe an elmo suit or something?

rootedinlove said...

I LOVE this!! You should make it a weekly or monthly thing! I'm a teacher too and I have the hardest time not feeling frumpy when I get dressed, but you look adorable!!
And I love knowing where everything came from too!

Hedi said...

I love all your outfits! Fun! Thanks for the comment on my blog. The font I used on my pictures was actually a Photoshop Brush I purchased from Designer Digitals. It is one by Ali Edwards and includes each day of the week as well as each month of the year. It's a really handy brush set! If you don't want to purchase the set (it's quite cheap, I believe) Ali Edwards does have a version of her handwriting available as a free font download. I can't remember where I got it - probably her site?

Tegan Aubrie said...

I love that you did this! And... I want all of those outfits... except for the fact that they would all look a million times better on you.

Reason #5,826,292 to be a teacher: getting to wear jeans to work.

Ashley said...

I'm SO jealous that your pool is still open! :)

The Bonjour Four said...

Marta @ Haus of Girls said...

love it all tall girl!
you are too cute!
if you have any clothes that are too big for you, feel free to send them my way ;)

Janna said...

Love that you joined in on this post, but jealous that you look so cute when you photograph yourself. I look like a dork when I do it, hence the reason I've never linked up to WIWW.
