Out of the Little Red Dress


What I'm loving today:
  • Wearing something OTHER than the Little Red Dress. As much as I loved learning from the experiment, I am beyond thrilled to be wearing jeans.
  • Polyvore. Have you found this treasure? A site with photos of clothes to mix and match in your own combinations. It's inspiring and addicting.
  • Going through my closet with tips from The No-Brainer Wardrobe. It's not a fashion book, but rather one that helps you discover your style and find a simple way to dress daily without resorting to frumpiness. I'll be sharing some of my combinations in future posts. Loved this book so much, I became an affiliate: Click here to visit Hayley Morgan @ The Tiny Twig. 
  • A wall beside my favorite chair that I've devoted to art. It makes me happy to see so much color!
  • Getting better at keeping up with my routines, thanks to Flylady.
What are you loving today?

  3. A sunny smile to go with a sunny colour.
    Yellow is my second fave colour and may I say how lovely it looks on you?

    I'm in desperate need of wardrobe tips. I always wear my things the one boring way - not so great at putting combinations together, I usually end up looking like a bag lady so when I find something that works I stick to it.
    Looking forward to your combinations :)

    Any way congrats on the completion of your challenge, hope you enjoy your new found fashion freedom x

    1. I love yellow too! My house is covered in a buttery hue. I think finding something that works and sticking to it, is a great way to go. And as for the new fashion freedom, I will be enjoying it--VERY much.

  4. I enjoyed following along on the red dress saga, it was definitely an intriguing journey on many levels. I'm loving the Spring colors all coming into bloom now.

    1. I loved having all this encouragement along the journey. And I agree about Spring colors. My favorites are turquoise, yellow and pink (of different shades).

  5. How cute you look in your jeans and yellow! I am so proud of you for taking that journey and learning from it! I'm so excited to check out the different sites you listed, sounded like some neat ideas. I love the sweet breezes, and roses growing by my door (that usually bloom around Mother's day!ha).

    1. I'm glad! Yes, I highly recommend the art wall. It's something I've wanted to do for awhile. I'm loving every moment of soaking up color.

  9. Such an awesome challenge. But I know how it feels to be able to get back to the jeans. I once made a bet with my roommate... he bet that I couldn't last a whole quarter (10 weeks) only wearing dresses and skirts. (Since I had lived with him I wore sweatpants nearly everyday and spruced things up with jeans every now and then). I did it, but I was quick to get back to my jeans.
