WIWW Sisters Edition

As I mentioned I was out on the coast last week and THAT means I got to see my sissy!! I LOVE this girl. We are 2 peas in a pod, 2 pigs in a blanket, 2 fish out of water, 2... however the saying goes, we love each other. I asked her to join my WIWW cause she makes everything cuter. Here is what she and I wore the week we got to spend every. day. together. If we could always be so lucky.

I'm not going to break down the outfits for you but I'll tell you that a lot of Sharon's wardrobe comes from this awesome consignment store called Labels and when we went together we definitely did some damage. I'm a little jealous I don't have one here at home. Here's our WIWWSE!

**Oh, and uh, I may really like my new red belt!**

Friday
My awesome thrift store find - read about the tag :)

Our cute glittery toes

Saturday
Sharon made her cute top. So, she's adorable and talented. Thanks for leaving some good genes for me....
(although she did make me a shirt, I'll post about it later)
Sunday


Monday
We were lucky enough to have my BFF Sharlee join us for Thanksgiving so we made her get in the picture too. Oh if you could hear girls talk: "I didn't know I was going to have my picture taken!" "It's raining, I would have done my hair curly had I known." "I wouldn't have worn these shoes if I knew we were going to do pictures outside." You get the idea...


Tuesday

Sharon found these shoes at the thrift store that day. Score! 

And a little WIWW with our dear Granny. She's almost "eighty bloomin' five." Still looks great huh!


Wednesday


And I got to wear this beauty a little later heading out on my daddy's bike.

Aaaaaaand this is what Neil got to wear!!  Bahaa!

What a great week and thanks sister (and Shar!)  for joining in my WIWW! 

I'm linking up with the other gals at the Pleated Poppy. 

Have a great week!

WIWW out of the garbage

Ok so I'm not actually wearing clothes from the garbage... but whilst I was cleaning out the photo albums on my laptop I somehow deleted the pictures I'd been taking this week so I did have to go restore them from my recycling bin which is kinda like going through the trash, right? While I was dumpster diving I came across this little gem:


a picture of me pregnant with Rigby last year.... aww. Anyway. Moving on.

Back at WIWW


I have missed 2 weeks of WIWW and I'm happy to be back, more for me than for you I'm sure, haha! I really enjoy this project and encourage you to try it.

I have realized (not that I didn't know before) that I do have A LOT of clothes but I consider myself to be a smart shopper, I really am a straight-to-the-sales-rack kind of gal and pride myself on dressing for less! I generally do not spend more than $19.99 on one item, unless it's jeans or shoes - something I expect to pay more for. Anyway, if you really look you can find some super cute things for cheap so this week I have added the prices I paid for some of these items.

Here's what I wore this week and as always I'm linking up to the adorable Lindsey and The Pleated Poppy.  
And new this week I'm linking up to the fab Meet Virginia who's always got some great style tips, check her out!

WIWW #4

Doing this project was good for me this week, I was tired and a little tempted to just throw on the same pair of sweats every day but I stuck to it and here it is. I kinda got sick of the stand-on-the-edge-of-the-bed business so some photos are just of my top (cause the bottom was always jeans this week) close up in the mirror. Oh and I put the description before the photos this time cause I think it makes it easier when you're scrolling down. Anywayhoo...  here's what I wore:
