Day 2 - working the Harem

Added accessories: Calvin Klein Belt

Let me tell you - it took four tries for me to figure out how I wanted to style these pants for my photo!  Not because it was that hard, but I was having fun coming up with different combinations!  Ah yes, this is what I do with my time when I am up at 3:30am and can't do much else without waking my husband. I hope you enjoy attempt number one! :)

What I have learned:  I'm starting to regret not putting my red pumps in my mix!  I was trying to be practical by only putting low heels in since I can't switch shoes when I go on my walks.  At least my boots are arriving today!!

  10. You are sooo brave to wear Harems..they're one trend I just can't try...I usually strongly dislike them..but they're actually quite cute here...likely because they're not as extreme..plus the trend is wearing on me...haha

  16. Thank you for the compliment on my son Kelly! I need to add a pic of my daughter but she was sacked out by the time I got it. Will have to do that once she is home from school. Nope...I just thought of the perfect pic! LOL Stay tuned for an edit!

    I just love how stylish you are! I need to get my groove back and get to caring about clothes again! LOL! Right now my dressing up is jeans and a fitted tee! LOL
