Today I have on the last of my Christmas gift goodies. And a skirt! Because the mercury is going above freezing and I'm taking a queue from Secret Squirrel and banning pants. I have been wearing so many pants lately and I have many wonderful pairs, but I also have fun skirts and dresses for winter, they need to see some light!
Sweater - Merona, Target
Blouse - Decree, JCPenney
Tights - Target
Skirt - Old Navy
Boots - Target (old)
I had intentions of also showing you the coat I bought after Christmas on my thrifting adventure, but I was super short on time this morning. You may have seen it in my Instagram feed at the right - I'm standing/hugging a monkey statue. I wore it the day I went to the zoo and was joking about wanting to hug the real monkeys but that the zoo is mean and won't let you do that. So then my Pants Monkey said "if you go hug that statue I'll take your picture." And I couldn't resist the opportunity. I love how the picture turned out....except I committed a bit of a fashion sin - I had been walking around the whole day with the tag still attached to my coat! Classy. I took it off immediately upon that discovery.
I get to take some field trips out of my office this week, which was a big motivator for choosing the boots today, I think this outfit would look cute with heels too. But, I have to go count Document Destruction bins in our clinic sites, so I needed something more sturdy. Don't you wish you had my job? So glamorous!
