Outfit roundup

I'm really behind the curve, technology-wise, so this isn't new information, just new to me. With iPhone apps for Blogger, it's super easy to take photos and upload them to the blog. Granted, these aren't gorgeous, high-resolution photos, but they'll do the trick. 

Here are a couple of outfits I wore during the past week, spent mainly at my mother's house (hence the lack of posting). (And to add more parentheses, we had a wonderful, relaxing time out of town, celebrating the Fourth of July, my brother's 18th birthday and our 5th wedding anniversary.)

I'm not crazy about this next outfit. I've been reading some different blogs during Brielle's marathon nursing sessions, and using a belt for purposes other than holding up your pants is apparently a thing now. So I decided to try it, and here's what it looked like: 

Ruff Hewn asymmetrical T-shirt - Clearance at Herberger's

Maxi skirt - Clearance at Herberger's

Belt - From a sweater my sister handed down to me

Sunglasses - Payless

Sandals (not shown) - Gap via Goodwill

I felt uncomfortable with where the belt bisected my middle, so I nixed it and went with this:

Not the most glamorous outfit ever, but very comfortable and easy for chasing around Miss Evangeline!

I wore this for the Fourth of July party at my grandmother's house. I ended up spending most of my time inside with Brielle, but I did get to enjoy part of a five-foot-wide pizza my uncles and cousins engineered. I wish I had a photo; it was impressive!

Green striped top - Local consignment store

White camisole - Yard sale

Black capris - Yard sale

Flats - Payless

Purse - Fossil, via local consignment

The top and capris are maternity clothes, which I should be sick of, but am not yet because they are so comfortable! (And if I hadn't pointed it out, you wouldn't have known they were maternity.)

Maternity pants = socially acceptable sweatpants.
