Closet Shopping

This week I made a concerted effort to shop from my closet. This meant finding things that I couldn't remember wearing in the last 3 months or longer. It was quite a success. Here are a few of my "new" purchases.

I'd only worn this dress once to a wedding this summer. I feel like it's a little big, but putting a sweater over it seemed to help. I'm not sold on the yellow sweater, but I liked the look. We don't get much of a spring here in Arizona (It's basically some variation of summer here all year long), but this outfit made me feel springy.

Dress: American Rag (Macy's)
Sweater: Gap
Tights: Merona (Target)
Heels: Old Navy
Pearls: Forever21
Bracelet: Old Navy


I actually used to wear this dress quite often, but I realized it had been a while when I pulled it out of my closet and my roommate went, "Oooh, I've never seen that before" (she has, but she has quite a bad memory). I've also only worn the vest once or twice. It's navy and for some reason I always have a hard time with navy.

Dress: Gap
Vest: Gap
Tights: Gap
Boots: Forever21
Necklace: Bridesmaid gift from my friend, Jill


I honestly don't know when I wore this top last. I have a hard time putting it with anything other than leggings. Same with the shoes. They're green gingham and I've probably only worn them twice. I love green, but it's hard to throw a gingham into many outfits. I don't wear the black skinny jeans often either because they are exactly what they say they are: skinny.

Top: Gap
Tank Top: Gap
Jeans: Old Navy
Shoes: Gap
Scarf as headband: Forever21
Necklaces: Forever21 and H&M


The necklaces aren't "new" but they're cheap and cheerful, and I wear them all the time!
