January is trucking right along this year, isn’t it? It’s not a favorite month for getting dressed traditionally. I’m usually just trying to stay warm. We’ve had a mild January so far. I am linking up with Kellyann and Jill to show you what I’ve worn, nevertheless. Did you catch that, Kellyann? Read her Monday post! I get to get dressed in January nevertheless!

Friday I could go out in just a blouse and jeans! I wore my leopard print Mary Janes.

Saturday it turned cold again so I wore jeans, my hot pink sweater from Old Navy, and Adidas Stan Smiths.

Sunday I wore my black cowl neck, black leggings, faux Uggs, and my new Target Joylab vest.

Monday I wore jeans, faux Uggs, black long sleeved tee, and my leopard vest

Tuesday I stayed in my gym leggings but put on another black long sleeved tee and a black fleece vest

I wore it to a warehouse sale of one of my favorite boutiques. I left empty handed and I consider that a success because last year I bought a lot and almost all of it ended up being donated. I have always had a problem with a sale, sale rack, and a warehouse sale. I have been working on that.

Last week I received an Old Navy order. I got another white crewneck t-shirt to wear under my sweaters

black everyday leggings that aren’t athletic

and thinking ahead to spring I ordered this white blouse

I am keeping all three pieces.

I have been watching Love is Blind Germany and two people have been wearing NY Yankees ballcaps. I found one at my consignment shop new with tags from Urban Outfitters and I got it.

Then, I thought I needed a navy sweater so I went to my trusty Amazon Essentials and got this:

An outfit is born! Ha! Yes, I know it was silly but it was silly to the tune of $10 for the cap and $20 for the sweater.

I signed up/applied to be part of The Halara Circle. They let you pick an item from a few items and you try it and review it. I hope I get to do it!

I am getting ready to publish a “Best of 2025 Purchases” post. I had so much fun going through all of my 2025 photos to see what was a good buy. I have mostly clothes and shoes in the post so I thought I would mention it here. I also have included some beauty and random purchases. I think we can learn so much about our spending through an exercise like this. I can’t help but think my “research” affected my wise spending/not spending at the warehouse sale!

What have you been wearing?

  1. “I have always had a problem with a sale, sales rack…” This times 1000%. I have a problem with online sales as well! That red “Sale” link on a website? I’m a goner!
