So I have been stalking fashion blogs for the past few weeks now. I was never in to fashion. Of course I wanted to look good, but comfort and convenience took priority. Make up and jewelry and cute shoes were all extras. I never understood why people would spend so much money on all these extra things. My wardrobe consisted of mostly blue scrubs for the past few years. And dark dreary colors (as my mom called them). Blues, creams, blacks, and grey. Oh grey, I think you are my new favorite color. Mom says I dress like ba gia. Thanks, mom. But those colors, in solid patterns, were the easiest to wear. NOW, however, I am breaking my boring fashion habits! Why now you ask? Well, 1. I don't have to wear blue scrubs anymore. 2. I've actually got some extra dough to spend on the things I always thought were extras. 3. My coworker always looks so darn cute, like she stepped out of a J Crew catalog. 4. I definitely look more 'grown up'. (it sucks when you walk in to see your patient and they give you this "you must be the assistant, you look like you're in college, you can't know what you're doing, what the hell, I want to see the doctor") 5. I want to be able to flaunt it while I still got it ; )
That all being said, I have gone on a mini shopping spree. I have rediscovered J crew. They actually have really nice stuff. And Ann Taylor, too. Gonna attempt to wear heels to work one day. Small, sturdy, strong heals, but heals none the less. Bye Bye Nikes. Next step is to go to Target or Forever 21 to find some cheapie jewelry to spice things up. I'm kind of excited about this! New looks for the coming new year! Let's see how long this fashion momentum lasts.... here's a look at what I got from www.jcrew.com, on sale of course:
sparkly belt. Definitely something new to me.
Wasn't sure about this one, but got it in a olive green color.
The orange cardigan. I got one in light blue too!
Still sticking to more neutral colors. hopefully these all look good, if not, returns!
The orange cardigan. I got one in light blue too!

time for a shopping spreeeeee??
Love it Amy! I really like that belt, I need to go get me one! I would like to do the same thing with my closet. Unfortunately, I only get to wear 'civilian' clothes when I'm not working.... which is usually just my PJ's or sweats. haha =P
can you post pictures when they come in?
It must be this cold weather that makes us want to all do wardrobe re-do. I'm planning one myself, but I'm going to try putting things together online, too! We'll see how it works out :)
love it! thanks for sharing!!!
