Day 12--August 19, 2011

Shirt: Present from my parents; they went to New Zealand for their 25th wedding anniversary

Shorts: Simply Basic; very, very old soccer shorts (from what I can tell Simply Basic is a Walmart brand).

Shoes: my SAS brown loafers

I changed out of my repeat outfit when we got home from Kansas about 12 noon on Friday into this. I spent the afternoon packing and climbing through the barn looking for stuff for my apartment. I got dir-ty! This shirt has a really high collar and I didn't want to wear it to school, so I wore it on my last day home!

Day 6--August 13, 2011

This outfit is one of those that I didn't want to take to school, so I wore it today.

Shirt: It's my high school senior shirt; it has my graduation date and my high school's mascot on the back.

Pants: Old Navy; hemmed by my mom

Shoes: Converse bought at Target

Purse: Merona (a gift, but it's a Target brand)

Headband: Goody

Yeah...so I wouldn't be caught dead wearing a high school shirt on campus. I can't get rid of this shirt though...too many memories! 

Even though you can't see them, I really love the socks I'm wearing--they are black, white, and gray argyle!

I'm so proud of my Converse! I got them this summer and they are my first pair! I love them!

Blogspot Bonus: I really really like the fact that my shoes and purse match! Ha!

These jeans are slightly too big around the waist and I should wear a belt with them. I never do though, so I wanted to leave them at home. They used to be way too long for me as well, but my mom fixed them for me!

I woke up at 9 am, spent the morning reading, and then headed to lunch with my dad and brother. We were waiting at the restaurant when my brother snapped the picture with his iPhone. This afternoon, my brother spent a BUNCH of time showing me stuff on Google Maps. Once again, a chill day.

But from 3 pm-bedtime I'm wearing....

A decent picture of my work outfit at last! I know you all were DYING to see it right? ; )

Here's the info copied from Day 2.

Shirt— Liz Claiborne (www.lizclaiborne.com);probably passed down from my mom

Pants—Tyte Jeans-American Standard (www.tyte.com); no idea where/how I got these

Nametag—given to me by Target (haha!)

Shoes—brown loafers from San Antonio Shoes (www.sasshoes.com);I think they are style Twin; inherited from my mom

Purse--Merona (I'm the type of person who uses a purse continually until she gets tired of it. My purse prior to this one was from Paris and I used it nearly exclusively for two years!)

Taken by my coworker Lauren at 11:15 pm on Thursday in the Target Team Member area.

Today's my last day of work until Christmas, so no more red and khaki on this blog until then! I'll wear red and I'll wear khaki, but I will NOT wear the two together outside of work. Oh and this work outfit now counts as worn! I'll get a new set of red and khaki out at Christmas!

What's My System?

It’s only Day 2 and I have already met an obstacle in my no repeating rule. How do I count an outfit as worn?

Most days, it’s easy. I get up, I put on clothes I haven’t worn before, and wear them all day. Simple.

But what about on days that I work? The current outfit I’m wearing I didn’t put on until 4 pm. I’ll only wear it about 6 hours AND I’m not even going to leave my house in that time. So do I still count the shirt and the pants as worn and thus unwearable until I finish my experiment? This won’t be an issue for much longer though—this is my last week of work.

And what about Sundays? On Sundays I wear my church outfit from 9 am-2 pm and then I change into something comfortable for the rest of the day. Do I count both outfits as worn? Or just my church outfit? Maybe I should rewear things only on Sunday afternoon—just to avoid this issue.
Any thoughts?

Day 2--August 9, 2011

Day 2--August 9, 2011

From 7:30 am-4 pm I wore this:

Shirt— Liz Claiborne (www.lizclaiborne.com);probably passed down from my mom

Pants—Tyte Jeans-American Standard (www.tyte.com); no idea where/how I got these

Nametag—given to me by Target (haha!)

Shoes (You can’t see them because I had already taken them off)—brown loafers from San Antonio Shoes (www.sasshoes.com);I think they are style Twin; inherited from my mom

So sorry for the terrible quality. When I got home from work, I was the only one home and I really wanted to change so I took a Myspace photo in my parents’ mirror. I really like this work outfit, so it’ll be a repeat. I promise I’ll get a decent photo of it soon. And then my hand won’t be blocking the cute neckline!

Then I changed and from 4 pm-bedtime I’m wearing this:

Shirt—Received in July or August 2006 when I went on my church’s annual Mystery Trizip (misspelled on purpose); It’s a Hanes Authentic shirt, design by that summer’s interns Megan W. and Megan P., and printed by unknown Tshirt company.

Jeans— So Wear It Declare It (they apparently don’t have their own site as it’s a Kohls-exclusive brand, so the site is www.kohls.com/So); bought and hemmed for me by my mom ages ago.

Shoes— probably none as I’m not planning to go anywhere

Sorry you can’t see my pants very well. I asked my dad to take a full-body picture, but he didn’t understand. Boys eh? They look like standard jeans in the front, but in the back they have 2 pockets with sparkly designs on them. There is a giant question mark on the back of my shirt too.

(You can click the pictures to make them bigger!)

Blogspot Bonus: I call these pants my XYZ jeans because the zipper has trouble staying up. I've had so many people tell my fly's open while wearing these pants! Definitely a good way to meet people I guess!
