Off the Wagon

Dress - Alfani (thrifted); Vest - One World (Steinmart); Shoes - Payless;
Belt - Steinmart; Earrings - a little boutique in columbus;
Bracelets - Me; Ring - Premiere
So, because I am so short waisted, I can shop in petites despite being 5'-9". I've had great luck with shirts and sweaters, but found out this day that dresses are a nono. While this did fit great in the top area, this petite dress was riding up on me in the leg department all day. I was super duper self conscious, probably because I wore white tights. Next time, it will be black.

And the title of the post is cause I'm hanging my head in shame. I was having a horribly stressful work/school day and I stopped at goodwill at lunch and did a little shopping. It was thrifted, and I kept it at $20, but I clearly fell off the wagon. As I climb back on I am going to attempt baby steps. Maybe I have to approach this the way I did quitting smoking. Take it day by day until I hit a week, then week by week until I hit a month...then it was easy cause I had gone so long. Sorry Husby. Sorry readers. Day one. Again.

Full of Goodwill

Shirt - NY & Co (thrifted); Pants - Bisou, Bisou (thrifted); Shoes - Stuart Weitzman (thrifted);
Necklaces - Premiere Designs (Sanja)

The shoes were the biggest steal of this outfit. The moment I got them home, I googled them to see how much they retailed for. $315. I paid $4. The whole outfit, including the jewelry, cost less than $100. I LOVE GOODWILL!!

This GI thing isn't too shabby. I feel pretty good and since I'm eating every two hours, once the satisfied feeling wears off from the last meal, it's time to eat again. I think this is a plan I can keep up with :-)

And no full body shot today....apparently I couldn't keep my eyes open for those. The white pants are pinstripe with wide legs. Trust me, they are cute. I actually feel really good today and thought the outfit was quite flattering in the full body pics. Oh well. Better luck on Monday.
