Best Laid Plans....

I spent a portion of the weekend weeding out my closet and found a lot of things I had forgotten I purchased. The good news is I have lots of new things to wear! The bad news is that since I still have 25lbs to lose, I will not get as much wear as out of everything as I planned. In an effort to make the most of my abundance I actually started writing down possible outfits. Although I planned some really cute outfits, I ended up going off book this morning and went with a version of my default (boring) uniform.

I am very excited about this blazer. I have had it forever but never wore it because 1. it didn't fit and 2. it had weird gold buttons. Having addressed the first problem, I took it upon myself to solve the second. I found an old blazer and stole its buttons and put them on this blazer. I should have done a before and after but you will have to take my word for it - this is a massive improvement.

Jacket, jeans and t-shirt - Old Navy



Necklace - Banana Republic

Shoes - Eddie Bauer



I am working on finding a more suitable background for photos. The white wall/ugly door combo is not attractive, but since Cupid didn't get me a tripod (but did give me roses), my options are limited. My office is a slight improvement although I'm not sure I want to show off what a slob I am. Stay tuned....
