Pre-Turkey Day dressing, 7

Here's an outfit I'd never considered before: The top is the blue/silver thing I bought as a "party" item last December. The skirt is from the otherwise "frumpy" Jaclyn Smith combo from spring of '08. I've come to hate the top, but the skirt hangs and flows beautifully.



More va-va-voom on the figure here. I don't know what I'm doing differently, but I have to keep at it!




Accessories: white hair bow, silver jewelry, wide black belt, blue patent pumps (with the killer spike heels).

More pics on Flickr. Further dressing next week.

Pre-Turkey Day dressing, 6

Another of my fave dresses, if only because it's so incredibly comfortable to wear. It's also classic yet modern, giving a lovely "young housewife" look. It's a knit jersey from Kmart.



Is it just me or does my figure look particularly spectacular in these two shots?




Accessories are narrow scarf, gold jewelry, black belt and plaid mary-jane pumps.

More pics on Flickr and another outfit later today.

Again, taking two pieces I never thought to combine before. The red top is from that very first outfit I bought in the winter of '07. The skirt is one of the three I bought at Kmart this spring.

I was really happy with this photo shoot; I had a tough time picking the best four shots to post here.





Accessories: Blue hair bow, multi-color scarf, taupe hose, silver jewelry, black patent pumps. I'm really getting to love that scarf--it has so many colors, it goes with practically anything!

More pics on Flickr; more dressing on Friday.

Pre-Turkey Day dressing, 4

Nothing new here, but this outfit is always attractive. It's a combo of sweater top and crepe skirt from Kmart's Jaclyn Smith line, bought earlier this year. All I was trying to do here was look comfortable and feminine.





Accessories are red rosette hairband, pearl and gold jewelry, taupe hose and bone-colored faux snakeskin pumps.

More pics on Flickr and I'll try to get the rest of Tuesday's pics up later tonight.

Pre-Turkey Day dressing, 3

This is the third outfit from Monday; not the one I'd originally intended to wear. I'd wanted to try again with the brown dress from Burlington that I bought over the summer--seen here. But when I tried it on, it seemed even tighter than the first time and all the wrong bulges were showing.

So I've decided to scrap that one. I think tomorrow I'll be making a Goodwill visit, with that dress and the two frumpy suits I bought 'way back at the beginning of my new dressing ventures.

Anyway, I went with one of my oldest blouses, the pink zebra-print skirt also bought this summer, and my pink pumps. Isn't it amazing how three items bought separately can match so well?





Other accessories are the pink hair bow, silver jewelry, and black hose.

More pics on Flickr and today's outfits later today.

Pre-Turkey Day dressing, 2

This is an all-new outfit. The pink plaid skirt is from Kmart (Jaclyn Smith again) and the gray blouse from Wal-Mart (the Lee Rider line).





The skirt is actually longer than I thought when I bought it, but I'm pleased with the look. Accessories are pink hair bow, silver jewelry, taupe hose, and pink pumps.

There's a third outfit from today, but I don't think I'll get it posted until tomorrow...and more pics are on Flickr.
