Re: OOTD - Wednesday
Repeat from last week, I just love this dress. Banana everything.
I look and feel like crap, so here's Jane:

No heading, more of a ribbon detail.
Lurker wants to play! I have a fashion question. I just bought this sweater-dress at Ann Taylor Factory. I know that it is technically a dress, and I plan on wearing it that way on weekends, hopefully with thick black tights. My office is too conservative to do that during the week, but I felt like a long sweater after the winter storm we got last night. Does this sweater dress not work with pants for the office? (pants are Limited). What does RE think?
Kate:
Top - Carter's (her 'pwinces cown' shirt)
Bottoms - target
Toothbrush - Target
Bruise on forehead - wood floor
Wrinkled Top - Old Navy
Cardigan - Target
Pants - BR
Damn, I should have ironed my shirt this morning.
Minnie, I think the dress works fine with the pants. For me personally, I think it would be too short, even with tights. You are cute.
That pic of Jane makes me realize how long it's been since audrey changed her siggy.
I love your top miller, even wrinkled.
I think it would better accentuate your waistline if you were wearing some sort of belt. It's a nice sweater, just doesn't give you a lot of shape.

Oh and because I realize OOTD is about giving as well as receiving (that's what she said), here are my comments on your outfits:
Wendy- I appreciate your Limited love- I love a lot of your consistent Limited purchases. I likes ya style!
Nov- that is a really pretty tank/shirt- I want to throw Hezz's necklace on your shirt to make it stand out even more!
Hezz- as just mentioned, your necklace is awesome.
mashed- in case anyone hasn't mentioned it, the top does look good, lol
SB- I always love your jewelry, it always works so well together
LHC- the outfit is perfect for kicking some teacher ass today
moo- I'm really liking the yellow skirt!
ribth- LOVE that dress. I can't always wear patterns, you are lucky!
garlic- love the sweater color
cali- love the necklace, and those jeans look especially slimming!
Thanks for the feedback! And you are absolutely right- slimmer pants would work better. I have the calfs of a strong squat Danish-woman (thanks mom and grandma!), so I've always shied away from checking out slim pants. In this case, it could work. And I agree, a belt would really help. I don't know if I will actually ever wear it with tights alone, either. I'm short (5' 3"), but perhaps I'll leave the mini skirts to the teens.
ETA: Thank you Winged
And also, I forgot to mention KB- there should just be a perma-hot stamp made to describe every one of her outfits.
My hair looks funny. I think it's because there is a mirror behind me.
Sweater - ATL outlet; dress - ATL; necklace - F21; earrings - an artisan in Santa Fe; tights - Target; boots - Steve Madden.
11/11/11 = 5 years. Woah!
Ribth - you are so freakin' cute, I can't take it. I love the fancy outfit and I really like today's top.
Garlic: love the color of the cardigan and the boots are great.
Cali: I don't think I've seen you in tall boots before, have I? You look lovely and thin!
KB: You're gorgeous. I love that dress.
Jane: OMG so big! She's so cute.
Minne: I like the sweater/dress thing a lot. You're real purty. I concur on a more fitted pant. I would probably do this with leggings/riding boots and a belt at the waist on the weekend.
EDIT: Oh God, I forgot two -
Miller - I feel like I wear an outfit similar to that every other day, so I love it. Cute and comfy.
Lisa - you look great and I like the necklace. I'm so digging the hair.
This and also (this may be just that colors are wonky on y phone) its a little monochromatic for me. I would go with a different color pants.
this is what you wear after a night of dealing with monsters. It is all target all the time up in here. Horizontal stripes..probably not for me. Too bad!
