What the Speechie Wore Wednesday

Thursday:  Paperwork & Meetings Day

I have gotten into a fashion rut.  I seem to wear the same outfit--usually black or brown pants and a nice shirt-- to work every single day.  And because I'm only at each school I serve one day each week, sometimes I think I wear the same outfit every other Tuesday, and so my Tuesday school probably thinks I only own two outfits.  Umm, not good.

So, to hold myself accountable for getting out of my "black pants rut," I decided to do a "What I Wore Wednesday" post.  Here are some of my outfits from a week when I was trying to do better.  I only wore black pants once, yay!  I do notice that I feel better and more confident when I dress myself with a bit more thought. 

Friday:  Speech Therapy & Meetings Day (These don't count as black pants.  They're gray.  Very different.)

Saturday:  out for a walk

Sunday:  Church and cleaning day.  Excuse the blurry pics -- Flanna took several of them. :)

Monday:  Testing, Report Writing, and Meetings Day

Tuesday:  Speech Therapy and Testing Day

What about you?  Do you feel better when you "look better"?

What I Wore Last Week

Since I've found in my happiness project that, for me, "Look Good, Feel Good," is true, I thought it would be fun to take Lindsey (from the Pleated Poppy)'s challenge and document a week of what I wore. She calls it her "what I wore Wednesday" post.

It was a little embarrassing. But I think that knowing I was going to document what I wore at least made me put a little thought into what I was grabbing to put on each morning. Which is a good thing, in that when I feel more put together, I do feel a bit more confident and happy.

So, here goes:

What outfit do you feel best in? Do you wear it constantly or save it for special occasions?
