I'm thinking of starting a new weekly post.  Something that is about clothes, fashion, good deals you scored for the week, pics of your favorite outfits, etc.  Maybe we can even get Ava to model a few of her favorite outfits for us!

So I'll start.  I went to the Gap Outlet yesterday and picked up off the 30% off rack 2 v-neck plain brown t-shirts for 2.90 each - I figure they'll be good for exercising in, and they're quite long.  My issue has been my exercise shirts have been shrinking, and when I Zumba and lift my arms, well, my belly wants to show... I also picked up a pair of black skinny pants.  Now, whats different about these are, I LIKED how they looked on me, and the legs weren't too long!  Oh - and they were also 30% off!! 

Oh - then I went to Van Heusen and picked up 2 new camis and a black button up sweater.  The sweater has ruffles the whole length - cutes it up quite a bit.  I'm going to wear it to work tomorrow.  So, it'll be a pair of black pants, my red cami and the black sweater.  Fini**** up with some chunky jewlery and I'm good to go!

Did you have any good fashion finds this week, a new outfit you put together you loved, or a fashion faux pas that happened?

Just a fashion faux pas for me today! I wore white pants, which I was very excited about being able to wear! They are getting baggy though and I am tossing them in the garbage tonight! 

First thing, I dripped coffee on my pants on the way to work. Tried to rub it off and smeared it. = 1 brown smudge on the thigh

Second thing, went to the coffee shop this morning and some college kid spilled his hot chocolate and it splashed all over my foot and up on the bottoms of my white pants = speckled bottoms

Third thing, went to chinese for lunch and dropped sweet and sour chicken on my leg = 1 big pink stain on the leg

Anyway, no pic to post, but I don't even think Goodwill will want these pants! LOL

My mom said something to me recently about how I could wear white now (because I never have), and the first thing that popped in my head was my 18month old son wiping his grubby hands on me.

I can totally picture your speckled and smeared pants LOL!

OMG when it rains it pours!!  Yes, I am a magnet for spilling stuff on me when I'm wearing light colored clothes too....

Perhaps its best to just get rid of them - move on and over and start fresh!!!

poor pants,LOl. But,Goodwill actually does still want them. Things that can't go on the rack are bundled and they sell the bulk bundles to other companies that make rags,etc,so they can still make money off them. send them on!

 OMG, I can't stop laughing.  You had a good day in those pants eh?  :)

I wore white linen pants in New Orleans.  I haven't worn white pants in so long that i can't remember the last time.

LOVE THIS! I have been a clothes junkie for the past month or more. I have vowed not to buy myself anything else until January (let's see if I can do it). My birthday is in December, plus Christmas and mom and DH keep telling me to stop or there won't be anything left to buy me.

There was a huge sale at Old Navy last weekend and I went nuts. I got jeans for $16 that I will pick up from the tailor tomorrow, a couple of big wrap around sweaters with belts, a sweater dress to go with leggings, and a couple of sweatsuits.

I also shop a lot at Target and they have had cute plaid button up shirts on sale that look super cute with skinny jeans and boots.

Awesome finds!! I'm loving the leggins/long sweater (or shirt)/belt look.  I have a pair of knee high boots i want to wear too - just want to be sure I'm not perceived as trying to look "too young" when I do!!

So no more clothes until January huh?  Good luck!  I keep telling myself that too!!
