I dont like to wear sleeveless, and never wear dresses.  Any other suggestions are welcome :) 

Re: wdyt?

  • I am not 100% sold on the tan cardigan with the black pants and the pink/coral shirt. What shoes would you wear?

    P.S. I LOVE that bracelet!

    I would prefer to wear dressier jeans, but I dont think I can (the dress code for the restaurant is upscale).  I need to find something I can wear with black pants...and I have some black pointy BR heels similar to this (but are a lot pointier, and they are black satin):

    The bracelet I found on unicef's website, and it's only $5!

    MIL is taking me to a tea room for my birthday, so I might do that top above with jeans, and some gold sandals (if its warm that day).  Would it look ok with a tan cardigan...with jeans?

  • yeah i think if you wear dark jeans with that top and the tan cardigan it would look cute! i saw the perfect earrings let me try to remember where they were from.

     i like the shoes and the pants....now we need to figure out a top for you.

     do you curl your hair? i have a good tutorial for curling your hair with a flat iron if you want the name.

    I will check out anything you show me!  Thanks Carmen :) 

  • I really like these earrings...but now looking at them and the shirt i am not 100% sold that they would look good.
  • do you have a blue top?

    these earrings would look cute with your black pants, blue top and a cardigan. or you could wear a white top.

  • I dont have a blue top or white...Im looking online to see if I can find something else.  no luck yet.

    And I should have mentioned before, Im allergic to certain metals and cant wear most jewelry :(  I can wear sterling silver and certain golds.  The earrings are soo pretty though!  Its so hard to find cute ones I can wear. 

    Oh, and remember that grey dress I got...DH says it looks like a maternity top on me :(  Looks like I will be saving that to wear with leggings or something when I do get PG.  Oh well. 

  • I like the coral one!  Im going to ON tomorrow, I will see if they have it :)  Will it still look ok with black pants and maybe a white top under it?
  • yes I think it would be very appropriate and cute for the look you are going for.

    Maybe wear some studs

     I actually kinda combine the two...I do what Julieg does but I wrap it one more time until the end is facing down like Makeupbymel does it. To me it looks better than using my curling iron.
