I, too, have put that rule in place about not buying anything that I don't love and feel great in...also haven't bought much of anything to wear, plus I've been donating all of the many things that have just been hanging around the closet. Let's just say the pickin's are pretty slim. I love your shoes and envy all you girls who can wear such things - they would kill me! There's a challenge: find comfortable shoes that are also cute!Lisahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12191841966918082437noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5277030315969732003.post-17281289494032268072011-07-12T21:32:56.695-07:002011-07-12T21:32:56.695-07:00Uniforms, I'm just sayin'Uniforms, I'm just sayin'Brendahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06430065113036026350noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5277030315969732003.post-17450997917360850152011-07-12T09:46:10.321-07:002011-07-12T09:46:10.321-07:00Since I'm a SAHM, i can keep it simple.

But last week I had my 25th high school reunion and ended up with three blouses what I thought looked fine in the store but once I got home and modeled for the kids, the "Uh, it's okay Mama" sent me off to change and eventually returning all of them!! But I did finally find the perfect set that may have looked a little old-fashioned but I felt comfortable the whole night!Kristalhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03687738709538002776noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5277030315969732003.post-62604015884316503242011-07-12T06:55:45.135-07:002011-07-12T06:55:45.135-07:00I have a niece that, for her, your room would look...I have a niece that, for her, your room would look normal--except you have too much carpet showing!

I no longer have an outside...The story of my life. I no longer have an outside the home job so it is much easier. If I don't feel fat I'm fine. The only time I 'suffer' over what to wear is if I am fat or feel fat. Simple is my motto and frump trumps fabulous if fabulous requires any effort or discomfort. For example-- I ADORE your shoes but they would kill my feet, so there is no way I would ever wear them --though I wish I could. My attempt to glam up is via jewelry. Fun, funky, cute, quirky or classic jewelry. As for wardrobe, I find simple is best...basic bottoms, like skirts/pants/slacks and jackets...long sleeve for cool, short sleeve for warm/hot..one black skirt can look like a dozen skirts if you top it with a different jacket.Dinahsoarhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03877872564454797447noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5277030315969732003.post-92130970656043401682011-07-11T18:13:18.315-07:002011-07-11T18:13:18.315-07:00You need my blog http://outfit31.blogspot.com!!!You need my blog http://outfit31.blogspot.com!!!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5277030315969732003.post-78625016130060052502011-07-11T18:02:59.467-07:002011-07-11T18:02:59.467-07:00It's always nice to know that we all do this!!...It's always nice to know that we all do this!! I'm a Stay At Home Mom so my daily wardrobe doesn't matter a whole lot and I tend to fret mostly on Sunday mornings. The outfit that was perfect a month ago, can now look frumpy or dated. And I have to try on the shoes to make sure that it doesn't work too.The Mommyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10453909200424907737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5277030315969732003.post-55465452847564723912011-07-11T18:00:36.226-07:002011-07-11T18:00:36.226-07:00Too funny!
