Army Vest

vest: jcpenney   pants: kohls    shoes: target 

I've been wanting a green military inspired vest for quite awhile.  I have this khaki vest from Old Navy and every time I think about wearing it, I think it is green, only to be disappointed when I take it out of my closet and realize it is not.   

So I was quite happy when I found this vest at JCPenney a few weeks ago and happier when it was only $10.  And this outfit is one of those that is full of deals that I am pretty proud of.  These pants were less than $8 from Kohls and I found these ankle boots at Target last year for $9.  

Now if you wanted to copy this shirt you'd have to go back to about 1999 and find it from American Eagle.  I think it may be time to replace shirts I bought in high school.  

Something New

tee: old navy   skirt: target ($10)  boots: target ($9 last year)

I know I am well behind this fashion trend, but this is the first time I've worn my booties without pants or tights.  Let me first start out by saying I dislike the term booties and feel quite silly using it.   Unless I'm referring to something to go on a baby's feet.  

I've tried a few times to wear these shoes without pants and just didn't feel like I could pull it off.  Well I finally decided to give it a try and I think I'm a fan.  I'm probably just in time for it not to be trendy anymore.  

Now something that isn't new is the wrinkles in my skirt.  I'm holding steady to my no ironing behaviors and there is no change in site.
