It’s Thursday and time for Fashion Files! I am linking up with Kellyann and Jill today to show you what I’ve been wearing.
I’ve been trying to wear everything in my closet or donate it.
In this first outfit, I am wearing one of my LulaRoe pencil skirts, my new consignment Target Universal Thread red tie front top and an old JCPenney Liz Claiborne knit cardigan:
Trying to get those classroom outfit pics:
That night I changed into this for Tom’s work happy hour:
The next day I wore my favorite fall colored but still feels summery top – ha! I wore my brown Matilda Jane flares and my Stan Smiths. I had a long day with a meeting after school and I was comfy.
Friday I wore my spf skort, my Barcelona tee, and my Carly Jean Los Angeles kimono.
And, Saturday for errands and for a friend hang on the boat (sorry for the bad photo; it was really sunny by the time I took it) I wore my Old Navy linen floral shorts, Old Navy gauzy hot pink top, and my rubber Birks. My star footwear of the summer was definitely these silver Birks.
Monday for school I wore a purple pencil skirt and my fun cougar(?) poncho top. RAWR!
And Tuesday for school I broke out the hot pink cougar blouse and my black Wit and Wisdom dress pants. I decided to try this look with the Sambas. The Sambas are very comfortable to me. I think they are stretching out a bit like I needed them to. The back heel can rub on your ankle and hopefully that will soften with time. I have on a pair of thick ankle socks that have a high back tab.
Let’s talk a little bit about confidence in wearing skirts or dresses with bare legs. I put on one or two rubber gloves and do one squirt of this Loving Tan and then massage it in my legs.
It looks tan right away and dries very quickly. I can do this right before work and be fine. It is definitely pricey but it works really well and looks really natural.
It also fades nicely but I can get about 4 days out of it? The rubber gloves are a game changer for me. I don’t have the mitt or anything else you can get to apply it with but the gloves are working well. I prop my leg up on the tub and rarely get anything on the tub. I feel like a professional donning my gloves – ha!
So, tell me about your fashion lately?

You have lots of great outfits and looks this week; I really love that cougar poncho. I pretty much just wore jeans and sweaters all week long.

I love the black and white / red shirt combo. I wore a similar outfit as your brown pants/white shirt this week with my MJ pants. The girls in my class love my MJ pants -and said they remembered when their moms made them wear them. I told them hadley had a few pairs too when she was little 😆

Thank you! Very U of L! That is so funny about the MJ pants – they do have a 70s vibe.

I love how you’re wearing your sneakers! Comfortable and stylish, those Sambas were a great purchase. A little self tanner goes a long way when it comes to confidence.
xo,

Lovely outfits!!
It’s great that you can still wear shorts, it’s too cold for them here now.
I love the LulaRoe pencil skirt and the hot pink cougar blouse, what fun.

Those first two outfits are my favorite: how fun and cute! I will be wearing shorts probably once a week until it cools off for real. I am enjoying wide leg jeans when I can. I will make sure to wear all the things once the weather stays cool but I don’t foresee anything to donate from my fall/winter wardrobe.

That was a great outfit week! Smack on, I mean it! Your style has really evolved towards the European style! I remember your fashion mantra of always wearing three pieces of clothing!
Well, September has been crazily warm and sunny over here, breaking all records, thank you! So I’m still in skirts and dresses with bare legs and I love it!

Love all the outfits! I don’t have the best of legs, and they stay pretty pale all year long. I’ve never tried a self-tanner…I think I’m just too lazy! I’m still searching Poshmark for some MJs in a different color!
