Big Mama Fashion Fiesta, Ole!

Although I didn't have to resort to Tylenol PM, I do have to admit I was a bit giddy last night. It might have been the high end of the emotional roller coaster ride after America bid "adios" to Michael Johns on American Idol, but I really think it was the extreme anticipation of today's fashion event!!

I have to admit that I have a progression of clothes. With 22 month old twins, some days are what we call "PJ to PJ days." As the name dictates, these are the days we stay in our PJ's all day until that evening when we put on a clean pair! Other days, I do graduate to more formal attire...shorts and a t-shirt or perhaps everyone's favorite black yoga pants and t-shirt. Alas, there are the days I have to get dressed because we are going to Bible study, to the doctor, or to take the kiddos to Moms Day Out (although, I mostly do this in my shorts/yoga pants and t-shirt).

For the latter, I try to keep my wardrobe simple. For example, here is my spring wardrobe....


I know you are thinking I must have made a mistake. Surely, she meant her "spring outfit!" No, I really meant to write "spring wardrobe." Considering, I had this outfit on Monday, Wednesday and I am planning to wear it tomorrow, I think I can safely call it a wardrobe. And just for the record, I didn't wear it Tuesday or Thursday because we didn't leave the house:)

This is very much my style. Solids paired with chunky jewelry, an oversized print purse, and comfortable (but hopefully a little bit trendy) shoes. I would rather spend money on shoes, a nice purse, and a good pair of jeans that I could potentially where everyday than on pricey outfits.


That's why I say, TGFM. Thank Goodness for Marshalls! If it weren't for Marshalls, I wouldn't have clothes to wear. My top in the above picture, Marshalls....$15. Here is a dress and several tops that I hope will take me through the summer (the dress and floral shirt are from....you guessed it, Marshalls!).


And last but not least, my dream wardrobe. Really, most anything from Anthropologie. Especially, this shirt and these shoes or these. And if I had money to throw away, this adorable top. I am also a very big Lilly fan. So, just about anything here will do too:) I really think this dress is cute. And this is too precious! And if I were here, I would want this too!! Hey, since we're fashion dreaming, I had to throw in some vacation dreams too:)

Happy Fashion Friday, and thank you Big Mama for such a fun fashion fiesta!!
