Okay, so I feel like a dork for even doing this post. But here it goes. I took pictures of what I wore every day this week and now I'm going to share the pictures with you. You know, like the fashion bloggers with the super cute clothes do. Except sub "super cute clothes" for "boring business casual attire."
Why am I doing this? I have no earthly idea. I've been dressing a bit like a bum lately. I've been tired, lazy and uninspired in the wardrobe department and it shows. Before this week, I hadn't worn heels to work since NOVEMBER. That's just ridiculous. Especially for a girl who has a closet full of adorable heels just waiting to be worn. Personally, I blame Tory Burch. If her Eddie flats weren't the most comfortable shoes on earth, maybe I'd wear heels more often. Anyway, I digress. I've been wearing the same boring black pants multiple times a week, which, if we're being 100% honest, are maternity pants. Seriously. It's that bad. Even worse, I've lost the baby weight. All of it. Yet I'm still wearing the maternity pants. Not okay.
So, I decided for better or worse, I'd take pictures of my outfit every day this week and post them, in hopes of encouraging myself to dress a bit less frumpy. I even ironed some clothes Sunday night so I'd have more options available in the morning. (Along with the heels, I've been boycotting anything that required ironing.) I definitely didn't come up with anything inspired and I am not even close to fashionable, but here are the outfits I wore this week.
Oh my God, why am I doing this?
I'm stalling...
Okay, enough. Here it goes.
Monday
(No, I'm not pregnant. Yes, I know it looks like it.)
Tuesday
Wednesday
(gah, that hairband on my wrist looks tacky)
Thursday
(gratuitous baby OOTD photo)
(Doesn't B look like one of the Wizard of Oz munchkins with the flower pot on its head in that picture?)
Friday
(love me a jeans day)
Okay, so that was my attempt at a week of somewhat put-togetherness on the clothes front. I was clearly phoning it in on Tuesday and Wednesday and I obviously need to work on accessorizing. But I wore heels three times. And ironed! Most importantly, I ditched the maternity pants. It's a start.
This might be the most lame post I've ever written.
Can we still be friends?

Love Thursday dress! And girl, you curled your hair and wore heels. You are doing better than me. :)
The Thursday dress is super cute. And you know, it's work. Go out on a date and full on accessorize. ;)
That blue and white dress is adorable! You look great!
The Pleated Poppy does a link up on Wednesdays to show off what you're wearing. You should link up! :)
I like your and B's Thursday outfits! I'd like to see Blaire's outfit o' the day next week! =)
For starters, I love that you quoted Clueless. Don't think for one second that slipped past me. And I think you look great! I honestly feel the same way about my work wardrobe. Completely uninspired and habitual. I love your pops of color! I have been trying to add more color. I wear SO much black!
You look great!!! And where did get Tuesdays dress? I love the sleeves!
I think I need to start doing this. I've been in a huge slump with my work outfits (mostly because I could care less about my job at this point). I love your dresses and of course the cute baby! :)
love the clueless quote and love the outfits, you looked adorable all week!
I am also severely jealous that you fix your hair every day for work... I'm lucky if my hair looks half that good one day of the week let alone EVERY day!
You are adorable! I love all your looks...but seriously, MUST KNOW MORE ABOUT THE THURSDAY DRESS!
Love your dress on Thursday!
Another Thursday dress fan. And, you suck. I GAINED 10 pounds back when I stopped nursing last month. Whoops!
Okay, guaranteed you were waaaay more dressed up and put together than I was last week and I lack an infant. So kudos to you and your perfectly curled hair! You look fabulous!!
umm I think you look awesome and comfy! Which is my main concern in deciding what to wear- admittedly I'm not very fashionable though.... :-/
I seriously think you look FANTASTIC! And your hair is stunning.
I think you look fantastic! Congrats on dropping the baby weight! Where are your wedges from in the first picture? They are adorable!
Love your curled pretty hair. And agree that the blue and white dress suited you.
First - you look FANTASTIC, lady! Congrats on losing all the baby weight so quickly. I am still holding onto the last 10 lbs. of mine. UGH. So, you're a rockstar in my eyes. Second - I think your outfits are adorable. I am a sucker for classic clothes... you can NEVER go wrong with pretty dresses and cardigans. They're always stylish and give you that "put together" look.
LOVE Thursday's outfit! YOU LOOK SMASHING!!!!!!!
You are so cute! LOVE the blue and white dress...where is it from?? P.S. Baby girl could not be any cuter!
yes, please share where the blue and white dress is from! i love seeing what you're wearing... they are things that i would actually wear to work, too. it fun looking at fashion blogs, but most of it isn't practical for my conservative office. have a great weekend!
I have a feeling all these posts above me say something similar to what I am about to say, but for what it's worth: I have no fashion advice because I am "ensemble challenged" as well. But I think you are doing darn good. I think being a working mom zaps major time for outfit assembly, so its seems like you are doing fantastic considering. Also, you have GORGEOUS hair. I am so jealous. Seriously.
All your outfits are adorable! BUT SERIOUSLY YOUR HAIR LOOKS AMAZING. Makes me sad I cut mine...
I echo everyone sentiments! you look fabulous!! I am obsessed with that black tuesday dress! I want!
Cute outfits (you and Blaire!) I love the shoes in the first pic, adorable!
I rather enjoyed that post! Maybe I should do the same thing to get me out of my juicy suit once in a while! ha
Girl stop! You look great! I want your hair, are any of those dry shampoo days? And I couldn't agree more with the tory butch comment, if my toes didn't freeze I'd be in mine everyday. Love that B made an appearance too!
way to go! I so need to get on dressing better! I have a demanding 2 month old!
I am amazed to get this information. thanks for posting.
