What I Wore Wednesday

February 12, 2014 by Crafty Teacher Lady +

Today I’m sharing a couple of my latest outfits for ‘What I Wore Wednesday’ and linking up over at the Pleated Poppy!  Lately I’ve been really into mixing pattern and adding pops of color to my work outfits! This first outfit is one of my favorites because it’s cute, affordable, and REALLY comfortable!

The mustard colored stretch skinny jeans were only $13 (now on sale for $9) from Walmart! I actually purchased them a couple months ago in three other colors because they fit my curvy body so well and are super affordable! The ruffled flower print top is from Target from a few years back. The royal colored cardi is from Banana Republic outlet last summer. The boots have become my ‘go to’ footwear of choice as I can run around all day at school and my feet don’t hurt…they’re from Kohls purchased in the fall.

The dress code for staff/teachers at my school isn’t super strict…we can
wear jeans, for instance, any day of the week as long as we still look
professional and put together. Here you can see I’ve paired dark denim jeans from American Eagle with a classic black blazer from Walmart (another totally awesome find from Wally World).  I added a striped black and white tee (can’t remember where it’s from) and a hot pink bauble necklace from Kohls for a pop of print and color!

I’ll be busting out some more hot pink this Friday for Valentine’s Day! Unless of course we don’t have school (again) due to an impending snow storm (again)! Alas, such is the life of a Mainer!

    The second look with the blazer, pop of red from the necklace and the sleek jeans is a great combo!

Absolutely gorgeous afternoon making memories with Absolutely gorgeous afternoon making memories with my sweet girl! We picked the best berries, then went home where my little sous chef practiced her fine motor skills by cutting the strawberries for homemade shortcake- my all time favorite dessert (and quickly becoming C’s favorite, too)! 🍓 

The last couple of months have been super challenging regarding some unexpected health challenges for me, resulting in an emergency surgery 4.5 weeks ago, and getting back to feeling good enough to go on outings like today was at the top of my priority-list! I felt good and had a wonderful time with my best little bud!! 🥰

Also shout out to @browdersfreshpickins for allowing us to pick all along the outside rows so that C could easily use her walker in the field!
Happy Easter from our (reluctant) Bunny Stanley 🐶 and our happy little Reese’s-loving gal!! 🥰
It’s always such a wonderful start to the weeken It’s always such a wonderful start to the weekend when a visit to @cafe_davina is on the agenda!! If you haven’t been, this adorable coffee house and crêperie is located within the beautiful grounds of the @thepinnerhouse, a boutique inn with cozy rooms and cottages! Both are a must visit in downtown Suffolk, VA!

I added some sweetness to C’s room for Valentine I added some sweetness to C’s room for Valentine’s Day! 💗 Even the little holidays are so much more fun with a little one here to celebrate! 

💗 This heart garland is easy to make using the printable I created for my Etsy shop @littlecpaperie…just print on card-stock, cut out the hearts, punch some holes, and thread onto some cute string! Make as many garlands as you wish, in any length! 🥰 Now go spread some love! 💗💗💗
And just like that, she’s 4!! ❤️🥰🍓❤️🥰❤️

We had a small family party while in Maine and I had so much fun putting together all the details! My favorite part of the decor was making the cake toppers to put onto a plain white bakery cake (I also added some fresh strawberries). I printed some strawberries and flowers on card stock and glued them to wood skewers. I made the pennant flags and bunting out of fabric from Joannes and used the same gingham for the table runners. It brings me so much joy to put together a little birthday party for my sweet little girl! Watching her grow and seeing her personality blossom is the greatest privilege of my life…she’s the best thing to ever happen to me! 

And on that note, Happy Birthday, C, and Happy New Year to all of you!
