So yesterday required me to be at a curriculum meeting instead of the classroom.
That meant two things........
I probably should not test the colorful skinny jeans boundaries as I would be at the district central office.
And the room we were meeting in is usually set to Arctic type temperatures.
Basically, I needed to be warm and blend in.
Khaki skinnies and layers to the rescue..........
But this outfit also was good for two other reasons.....
I am working on a no-new-clothes-buying-in-January resolution. (Baby steps, people.) Soooo I shopped my own closet and re-found that sweater, which I had forgotten, but love.
Annnd it proves to you that I have other boots.
Some of you maybe were getting worried that I only had one pair..........
I do occasionally wear something other than my favorite boots ever.
So, while not too exciting, this outfit packed a whole lotta punch.
It was my warm resolution keeper.
Isn't it great when you find something out of your own closet?!! Love that.
ReplyDeleteI wear the same boots ALL the time...when they're your favorite, they're your favorite!!
That sweater looks warm and comfy! I'm trying to shop my own closet more too. And I always wear the same pair of boots also...my readers are probably so bored of seeing them all the time, ha.

HA! I guess I focus more on the clothing items and scarves!
DeleteYou always look adorable. I am glad, though, that this adorable outfit will also keep you warm. Hopefully you won't be so warm you fall asleep during your meeting :)
ReplyDeleteLove everything about this outfit...I would wear it in a heartbeat! I've been looking for some tan skinnies like that. Love those!
ReplyDeleteI wish I was wearing that sweater today because it's a little cold here in Houston. Not sure what I was thinking when I packed a short sleeve shirt.
ReplyDeleteI love your brown boots and would probably wear then everyday if I had them!
Love your style! I teach and these are actually do-able teaching outfits! New follower :))

I also have a no new clothes resolution. And I am also doing a no repeat outfit in January too. Just to make sure I'm being creative. Love the clothes, especially the chambray shirt and red pants. I need both in my wardrobe...in February.
ReplyDeleteLove to see your cute outfits! AND to hear about the inner battles you have with shopping! I so easily relate ;)
ReplyDeleteGirl...I love your boots!! They go with everything and that sweater that you bought during your other shopping ban (you know the one) is gorgeous. Love the collage of outfits. dawn suitcase vignettes xo
ReplyDeleteI love that sweater. Don't you hate figuring out what to wear on those "important meeting" days? You looked great, though!
ReplyDeleteThese outfits look great on you.
ReplyDeleteI am the same way with my brown boots....I always seem to throw those on. I love the "blending in" look....you are too presh....thanks a million for being so loyal with linking up!!!
ReplyDeleteAwh Danavee! Good on ya! I mean literally. That ootd looks good on YOU. Confession: I did notice the boots. sorry. I appreciate your humor and I hope you appreciate mine? (hug)
ReplyDeleteI have my own computer back and I am loving it. It is so fast. Wahhhhhoooo
I wish there were enough clothes in my closet for me to "forget" that I had something :) Sadly, I'm trying to bulk mine up as much as I can.
ReplyDeleteThis is a cute outfit. Definitely something I'd wear.
I can't get over your hair! so cute. It's like messy perfection. And you have quite the collection of awesome sweaters too!

Do you normally wear colored skinnies in the classroom? I was just blogging about work pants today myself- I've been having trouble getting out of black pants, but am a little afraid of going that bold... what do you normally wear on a workday pants wise?

I sure do! I have every color, and I've worn them ALL to work! Actually, besides skinnies, I have a few pair of corduroys that I wear......and then tights with skirts or dresses!!!
DeleteThe long sleeve shirt looks great layered under your sweater! I'm your newest follower :) I'd love for you to follow my blog too. xo

Thanks so much! I'll head your way!
DeleteDon't you love when you rediscover something you your closet you completely forgot about?! And I've been wearing the same pair of boots again and again this winter, too, though I don't think there's as much photographic proof.
ReplyDeleteAnyway. I think this looks cozy and cute. :)
And let me know if you figure out the trick to the no-clothes-buying for the month thing, because I SUCK at that, haha.
I know. I have no willpower at all, but so far, I've really behaved! And I have NO CLUE WHY!?!?!
DeleteLove it, girl! You look fabulous (and professional) :)
ReplyDeleteGood for you not shopping in Jan! All I want to do is shop lately :D I love all your combinations!

I KNOW! I usually have zero willpower!
DeleteI think that outfit is genius! (I spend almost all my time going back and forth between freezing rooms and rooms that are over-heated and am forever trying to find an outfit that can work for both HA) I love your resolution of not buying anything new! I'm cheering you on!
ReplyDeleteBest,

I love this comfy look! It is great when you rediscover pieces in your closet. I just went through my closet this morning and cleared out a bunch of clothes to donate, but thankfully found a few to put back in rotation too! :) Good luck with your January resolution!
