I'm learning so much about how I dress by taking pictures. I wish I could do it everyday. There would be a lot of yoga pants and nursing tanks though. *yawn*
Anyway here it is.
I'm wearing a Liz Claiborne animal print from decades past. I do believe there's a comeback for Liz that happened or is happening. Anybody know?
The fabric is lightweight and just a little bit transparent. It requires no ironing and it's nursing friendly. It hides a full belly too without being humongous. It has side slits that hit me at my upper waist probably due to it being a petite size and me having a long torso.
The jeans are Gap brand circa 2008. "Old school" denim is the best! I didn't notice until today that they were $3.90 so I went over per garment limit. They fit well, have a nice high rise, and a dark wash so I still think they're a good purchase. I can probably wear these with flats too. Most jeans are way too long on me.

If your ensemble fails you, do you take it off and start over?
Are you a fan of at waist or high waist pants? Do you seek them out despite trends?

Very cute. I like the top, this only reinforces my belief that I need to go thrifting with you.
I've started learning a lot from taking pictures of my outfits too. I don't know why, but looking in the mirror is not the same as seeing something in a picture format.
I have been known to look at the picture, strip down and start all over thought... LOL The hubs is not a fan of the camera. Hahahaha
I have been late to work many a day fooling with clothes.
@DaenelT one day! I still want to do a thrifting road trip across the country.
I know what you mean about the mirror. My original outfit was decent in the mirror and fugly in the pic.
@Tiff I used to go to work in the whack outfit. I called them dorkfit and they really messed with my attitude. I probably should have just gone in late....
i dont own a full length mirror and usually just trust what i have going on. i must looka mess some days. lets get the thriftin across america trip together.
I will completely be late where I am going if I don't like my outfit. I really hate when I have it planned out in my head and then it doesn't work out IRL. Tragic.
ah...this is just what I need for inspiration monday. A leopard top! Gorgeous. I'm short, so high waisted pants is good for elongating my legs.
You should pop over to Two bird's INpsiration Monday, they are having a leopard printed top outfit inspiration.
Thanks for following, following back!

cute top!! and it's so perfect with the jeans.
since the skirt is a bit matronly, a sexy heel is a great choice and probably a tank or bodysuit up top.
@MimiI think I need to take the extra time. This isn't the first time I've seen an outfit fail in the camera.
@MongsThanks for the suggestions. I'll try it with a tank and see what happens. I'm always searing for new blogs so thanks for enabling! Love your blog!
@simplychic thanks for the suggestion. I'll give it a try. Love your blog!
