Oh, to have Emma Pillsbury's wardrobe ...

Ok, I may be late to the game ... but oh have I fallen hard.  Its official, Im a gleek.  I GLEEfully sing along on Thursday nights, while my husband sighs in disgust.  But the most impressive thing about such a happy, happy show has to be the wardrobe of ridiculously germophobic Emma Pillsbury.  And the accessories ... *sigh* where do I start?

I have such a crush on this necklace ... does anyone know where it comes from?

                                         

  

 So these are just a few of the gorgeous pieces that has been worn so far, and I'm sure I will be doing an inspiration day soon.

Its' been a long time ...

I know, I know ... its been a very long time since my last post .. Ive had some time away and come back excited and rejuvenated to be back in the world of blogging.. plus I dont think camping pics are quite what everyone is dying to see :)  Mind you, I did get a little shock when I checked out Reader to discover 479 posts awaiting my eyes .. needless to say its going to take a little while to catch up with everyone :)

So I'm going to post the daily shot, but I'm afraid to say, it is not what I would like my return to be - basically a lazy day at home with the kids so it's a jeans and top kinda day. (Apologies for the hair and weird photo angles, but it's just one of those days)

Top - Colorado

Jeans - Calving Klein

Belt - Target

Shoes - Nine West

Week In Review

At the end of each week, Im going to start doing a quick review ... hopefully help me spot my common themes.

Well for someone who doesn't wear many dresses or skirts - I certainly made an effort this week.  Hmmm, those red wedges got a bit of a workout but I'm trying to break them in before I go on my holiday. :)

                                               

Weekend Jeans

I'm still divided on the whole rolling up jeans, but I'll play with it. :)

So while I'm still not convinced, at least it shakes it up a little.

Same Material, different style ...

I have another skirt in this same material, but this is a little shorter with ALOT less material.  I know they look so similar, but at 70% off, I couldn't resist both :)

Shirt - Tokito

Skirt - Laura Ashley

Belt - Target

Shoes - Pepe Castell

Earrings - Sportsgirl

The shoes Im wearing are THE most expensive pair I have ever paid full price for.  And my husband still looks like he's choking on something every time he looks at them.  But they have a very special place in my heart after many, many wears and they still look fabulous with everything.  (and incredibly comfortable to boot!)

How do you fix clinging fabric?

This was my original Thursday outfit ... completely out of my comfort zone.  To start with its short (for me) and a dress (which I dont wear often). And completely shows off my fabulous Queensland tan ... yes, I really am that white -  I believe its called alabaster ;)

After wearing it around the house while getting ready, it had already started to clingy to my legs in the most unwelcoming way, and by the time I finished my makeup I couldnt pry the material from my legs without it velcro-ing itself to the other leg.  Long story short ... I didnt leave the house in this one.

So the question of the day is ... do you have dresses that do this, and what do you do with them?
