Girls Who Wear Pearls
I am trying to integrate the 2 blogs, but having way more trouble than can be reasonable. So, for the time being I'm giving up on this one since more people visit that web address any ways.
Sorry for the inconvenience.

Pick Of The Day
Today's pick comes to you from J.Crew
I know we are not supposed to be shopping right now, but I can still look at the goods for later...
I have really been wanting a pair of Oxfords, but I have also really been wanting a new pair of ballet flats. These Oxford Ballet Flats seemed like the perfect combination! Looking forward to these shoes after the 30 for 30 challenge! :o)

Style Me Pretty: 30 for 30
6 of 30: Monday...
Where it Came From:
Jacket: Some leather store in Rome, Italy
Sweater: Gap
Jeans: Gap
Boots: Nordstroms
My dog Maggie likes being in my pictures. She can't help but try and be the center of attention. Plus, I take quite a few pictures of her and my other dog Sadie, so any time there is a camera out, she thinks she is supposed to be in the picture.
Today was a windy day. The leather jacket felt appropriate. I haven't worn it in a while, so I was happy to sport it today.
I have decided that I really need a better camera. My husband broke the good one on our honeymoon and I haven't bought a new one since then. I have been using a really old camera of his from around his freshman year in college! I'm on the hunt. Let me know if anyone out there has a good camera that they are wanting to get rid of. I have also decided that Elizabeth and I are going to have to get together more often to take pictures of each other because my husband does not want to cooperate. He acts like his life is ending when I ask him to take a picture of my outfit for the day (which is usually why I only post two pictures). I promise this isn't complain about your husband day. It just looks like it.

Style Me Pretty: 30 for 30
Day 5 of 30: Super Bowl Sunday!
Where it Came From:
Top: Banana Republic
Skirt: Talbot's
Leggings: Target
Shoes: Bandolinos
Well this is obviously not my Super Bowl Sunday attire, but it is Super Bowl Sunday today, so it seemed like a good caption. This is actually what I wore to church and lunch. The husband and I tried out a new church today. We have only been living here for a few months and just haven't really had the time to find a church we like. Today was our first attempt though. So far, so good.
I'm glad my Nana (actually my husband's Nana, but I like to claim her) talked me into this skirt. It has come in pretty handy and I usually get compliments on it when I where it. I like the skirt because of it's ruffles and the belt. You can do away with the belt or tie pretty bows with it. The skirt has really become a versatile piece in my wardrobe (which is one of the reason's why I chose it in my 30 for 30). So you should look forward to seeing other outfits with it! ;o)
I'm going to get ready for the bowl game now! Later gators!

Style Me Pretty: 30 for 30
Day 4 of 30: School Day (On a Saturday?)
Where it Came From:
Top: Express
Cardigan: Gap
Pants: Gap
Shoes: Bandolinos
I am currently in the process of getting my teaching certificate. We have classes at least one Saturday out of every month that we must attend. Starts at 8:30 AM and goes until 3:30 PM. It wouldn't be so bad if I didn't have to drive an hour and half to get there. Blah. After graduating from college, I decided that I wanted to be a teacher. My original plan was to become a Physician Assistant, but I decided to go with something I had always thought about doing instead. I'll keep you posted on how it all turns out. I may decide to go back to school after I try the teaching thing out. We will see. We have to dress "professional" for every class, so this is my professional look for today.
When I got home from class today, I immediately had my husband snap a few pics and then I changed clothes so that we could take the pups to go play ball. We have all had a little cabin fever since the weather has been so cold and icy lately. Here are a couple of snap shots I took with my iPhone the other day of them playing.
I love those two girls! I don't know what I would do without them.

Style Me Pretty: 30 for 30
3rd Times a Charm!
 |
| Captain Morgan Pose? |
Where it Came From:
Top: Gap
Sweater: Gap
Jeans: Gap
Boots: Etienne Aigner, Alexis (mother in law's closet)
Coat: Grandmother's
I was so upset when I woke up this morning to no snow. Only ice. Not cool. The weather team really talked up the whole "Arctic Blast" thing. Grr...
Any who, love this outfit (and Gap, apparently). Very comfy. I told you guys I would post a picture of the fur today, so here it is! I love it and it has kept me very warm today. I noticed all the other women at the grocery store were in their furs today too. Probably the only chance we will really get to wear them here in South Texas.
I'm going to snuggle up next to my husband with a bowl of gumbo next to the fire now. Chow!
