What I Wore Wednesday

October 5, 2011 by Crafty Teacher Lady +

I love that it’s really starting to feel like fall here in Maine…well, sort of…this weekend it’s suppose to be near 70!  Anyway, on to the outfits!

Last Wednesday

Pretty Ruffled Top: Target
Pants: Victoria’s Secret, “Christie Fit”
Shoes: Marshall’s
I love the ruffled details on this top.  My students made comments about it all day…they were pretty fascinated with it’s construction!

Thursday

Sweater: Ann Taylor Loft
Giraffe-Print Dress: Target 
Belt: Target
Necklace:  Hmmm, don’t remember!
Shoes: Target
I love this outfit!  I’m a huge fan of animal print, but not the Jersey Shore spandex mini-skirt dress type!  This dress is actually a sleeveless tank style that wouldn’t be appropriate for school but I’ve made it work-friendly by adding a cardi!
Monday (sorry, no pics from the weekend!)

Sweater: GAP
Plaid Shirt: Forever 21
Pants: GAP
Sandals: Old Navy
This outfit was so comfy!  Sometimes I don’t want to do the pointed heels and the business-type dress pants…I just want to feel put together yet comfortable. I think the plaid shirt is so cute with the ruffles and feels ‘fall’ to me!
Tuesday

Sweater: Target
White Collared Shirt: Banana Republic Outlet
Tweed Plaid Skirt: Ann Taylor Loft
Shoes: TJ Max
I found this skirt on the clearance rack at the LOFT a few years back and think it’s the cutest thing!  The pleats in the front are also in the back!  Plus, love the green/teal combo!

I love a good thrift store visit…the only items th I love a good thrift store visit…the only items that came home with us were the beach chair (we needed one), the mini chalkboard (which I’ll take to school to display the “quote of the week”), and the cute New Balance sneakers. Stay tuned for part 2 where I show you all the things that caught the eye of my five year old!! 🤣🥰🎉👏🏻
We took our 4th annual trip to @storylandnh and as We took our 4th annual trip to @storylandnh and as we sat to take a break, this character came over to say hello. Our daughter has worked so hard in physical therapy to overcome some gross motor challenges related to balance and coordination, most notably learning to walk independently. With some encouragement, she stood up and walked over for a hug! This seemingly mundane moment for most families is SUCH a huge milestone for us- one that is a culmination of YEARS of hard work. Words cannot express how proud I am to be her mom and to have a front row seat to true determination, perseverance, and patience…today was an awesome day and makes me so hopeful for the future! 💗
My home state of Maine will forever have my heart- My home state of Maine will forever have my heart- I miss it every day but feel so lucky I get to come back home for much of the summer to fill my cup right up to the brim! I hope my daughter is building core memories of her time here each summer as well…video captured while on a July Fourth family cruise in front of Portland Head Light in Cape Elizabeth, Maine.

Still can’t believe this is our backyard…I was get Still can’t believe this is our backyard…I was getting ready for bed and I looked out my window and saw both a deer and a bunny and pretty much felt just like Snow White! I can’t get enough of these cute visitors (and also know I won’t be spending a ton on landscaping since most plants won’t stand a chance)! 🤣
Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry tre Spring is the time to shine for the two cherry trees in our backyard…watching them bloom has been nothing short of magical. And the scent of the blossoms!! Absolutely divine! 

Buying an older home vs building new can have its perks- one being an established yard (which I just fell in love with). We’ve got neighbors all around, however, the backyard feels pretty private thanks to landscaping done years ago by the previous owners!
