What I Wore - 3 days, 3 different outfits, 3 different hair styles

This weekend has been extremely busy, so I figured to make this post a 1 in 3!  Hope you are enjoying this warm weather :-)  I do change 2 or more times per day but figured to post the “main” outfits.  It’s been extremely hot.  Just looking at these pictures served as evidence how frequently I change my hair.  My husband did tell me I treat my hair like an accessory, I suppose he wasn’t far from the truth!?

Pic #1 - Dinner with a friend.  I initially swore off white jeans for a lifetime, but reconsidered these Zara skinny jeans.  Surprisingly, I didn’t look like a snow Polar Bear!  I will toast run a few more miles to that!  (Top and jeans - Zara, Shoes - Nine West, Clutch - ASOS)

Pic #2 - Out and about and an evening party. It was HOT, HOT, HOT…I realized I never posted this romper I picked up from Gap.  One piece, easy, and you are on your way!  Pardon my hand-on-the-hip pose.  *sigh* I will have to ensure that does not happen EVER again! :-)  Oh, and the bag is from Zara too!  Can you tell how much I love Zara?  *double sigh*

Pic #3 - Chill and relaxed/casual.  I ran yesterday, so I didn’t feel up to doing my hair, hence the scarf!  Maxi dress from Express (old), Bag - Zara

Be well, and Live Simplistically!

What I Wore…Arden B Chambray Romper

The weather in Chicago is trying to get a little warmer, though you can never be sure.  Yesterday, the temps reached the high 80’s which was celebration enough for me to pull out my romper when I got home.

Initially was hesitant to purchase a romper out of fear of looking too juvenile. However, this surprisingly has become a really versatile piece which is perfect for layering and the length of the leg it perfect for me.  Rompers are no-fuss, quick and easy “go-to” pieces if you are like me and indecisive with what to wear on occasion.  They truly only require some accessories and ‘off you go!’

Caution: Rompers CAN be tricky if you don’t have the right bra, so be sure to get a good strapless bra.  On a personal note, I am overly cautious of the “pit fat” (yes I typed it) that likes to show it’s nasty head with strapless tops.  Choose pieces CAREFULLY.  After all, you want to look AND feel good.  Sorry, but I’m particular when it comes to what I wear.

P.S. - Don’t mind that last picture.  My little photographer likes snapping pictures when I make faces.  You still get the idea of the outfit.  :-)
