What I Wore: Sheer Genius

I have to say, one of my favorite things about the new house is all of the full-length mirrors we inherited. Easy outfit documenting for the win!


I remember in the old days, I'd have to set the timer on my camera and run to the other side of the room. And then repeat 37 times to get a good shot. But no more! All of this extra time is liberating.

blouse: Nordstrom
jeans: Forever 21 (how's that for high and low in the same outfit?)
shoes: Target

This shirt is new. I was going through my dresser a couple of weeks ago and re-confirmed that 95% of my tops are t-shirts or sweaters, which should not surprise anyone. I've been meaning to get more blouses for a long time, so I finally just did it. They've been surprisingly versatile, too. I wore this one to Lowe's, then to eat hot dogs, and then to visit Hubsey's grandparents. Note: this color hides ketchup very well.


Bonus: I love that little pocket.

You may remember my loafer/smoking slipper hybrids. They got a lot of action last week. If you're considering them, I can't say enough good things.


Have you been busting out your fall duds? Or finding any new pieces? Or getting caught in a ketchup crossfire because there was an air bubble in the pump? Do you have a favorite spot for taking outfit pictures?

  1. My fall wardrobe consists of lots of sweaters too. In fact, I bought two more this weekend :)
    Love the purple blouse!

  2. Cute outfit! It's too early to get out my Fall clothes here. Can't wait till it cools off so I can wear the boots I bought last year.

  3. I love full-length mirrors. Unfortunately ours is part of the wardrobe, which is in a walk-in area and too dark for taking photos.
    Your new blouse is such a lovely colour! And I love the pocket too!

  4. We don't have any full-length mirrors in our house! That makes it a little difficult...But, I LOVE that new blouse of yours. The color is so pretty.

  6. You're right that blouses are so versatile. It look me a long time to wear them as well, but now I do fairly often. We were lucky to inherit some full length mirrors in our house, too. Otherwise I'm sure that we will wouldn't have any.

  8. Hey miss!! Skinny jeans are so made for you. If I could rock skinny jeans like that I'd wear them all the time...and wear the ones that aren't made of mostly spandex :p

    Super cute shirt!!! Love that color.

    PS - your hair is gorgeous!

  10. I don't have a lot of fall clothes (most of my wardrobe is summery, which makes absolutely no sense considering where we live). Most of what I do have consists of dresses and tights, but I'm aiming more for jeans and sweaters this year.
