What I Wore Wednesday: The Mother's Day Edition

Lately, I'm finding it entirely too easy to remain in my lounge pants all the live-long day. 

I'm editing a textbook from home, so with no where to go and no one to see, there is not much reason for me to shower, let alone get dressed. But in an effort to avoid total slob-status, I did get dolled-up a few times this week. 

~First up, my continuing attempts at Pinterest Interpretation~

This was my jumping off point:

This was my real-life interpretation:

Not an exact copy, but kind of the same flavor.

Sweater: Banana Republic

Scarf and skinnies: Old Navy

Sandals: no idea. They are so old, the brand wore off!

Ok, the next outfit was influenced by the changing Minnesota weather. The morning was chilly, so I started the day with leggings. But it warmed up, so I ended it with bare (and blindingly white) knees. And different boots. Go figure.

Which version do you like better?

Dress: Shade Clothing

Belt: Target

First boots: Keen

Second boots: Macy's

Leggings: Old Navy

Knee Socks: Target

Flower pin: Claire's

Mother's Day is a special occasion, so I felt like it warranted a special outfit, even though I only wore it for a few hours. I spent most of the day in gardening grubs.

Dress: Dress Barn

Cardi: Target

Shoes: Macy's 

Caitlin calls these my "elf shoes" because of their pointy toes. Are pointy-toe shoes "out" now? Do you like them? I thought they might be kind of dorky, but didn't have anything else that matched. More importantly, they are brutally uncomfortable. I think they will have to head to the Goodwill sooner, rather than later.

That's it for this week. 

Thanks for stopping by, and I'd love to hear what you think of this week's WIWW so leave a comment, if you're so inclined.

I'll be linking up with Lindsey for lots more WIWW awesomeness.
