January Work #ootd

We are taking this back in the early 2010’s….. if you have been reading blogs for a long time,  you know what that means- #ootd posts. 
January I challenged myself to wear my closet and not repeat outfits (there is ABSOLUTELY nothing wrong with repeating an outfit), I wanted to make sure I wear everything in my clothes and if it doesn’t fit right or feel right, then donate it. I think I put a good dent in my closet and trying new outfits. 
This month’s outfits featured some of my very favorite looks.
Week 1

Started the year off strong with my favorite hot pink top and leopard loafers. My navy and tan & netural and green combos are some of my favorite classic looks. I LOVE those Nine West pants and then ending the week with leopard and wine colored pants.  Gosh, all these looks could be my uniform and I would be so happy!

Week 2

This wek was a mixed bag. I really liked 2 outfits, one outfit was an old favorite, one chance I took I really liked and the other I didn’t like that much. The black and white dress with black tights and booties was my least favorite for the week and possibly the month. Loved the lavender moment and the navy jumper dress. (Fun fact: That navy dress has been with me almost my whole time I’ve worked at the Courthouse. I’ve styled it SO many different ways!) The blazer and patterned top was an unexpected win and the navy, green and tan out is an old favorite that might need to be retired.

Week 3

First week dressing as a 35 year old so I had to break out one of my favorite winter outfits- thrifted Talbots skirt with a black turtleneck, black tights and black boots. A simple pearl necklace rounded out the outfit. The big bow and striped yellow sweater. It’s definitely a look- not a favorite. Perhaps time to retire that bow. Basic black with a pop of color especially my Tiffany’s scarf is an easy fan favorite. White sweaters and I have a love hate relationship. I just struggle to wear them. My gold flats and navy Nine West pants were a highlight of that outfit. 

Week 4/5

Week 4 was a weird week. It was cut short due to me getting sick and clearly the first two outfits were not favorites. That sweater has seen better days. Black tights did not do anything for that dress. Should have worn leopard flats. The purple leopard outfit was from when I came back on the last day of the month. 

Overall, it was a fun month of doing #ootd’s. I am going to continue it through the February. I did this same project back in 2013(?) for a whole year and it was definitely a lot of fun. Who knows how long this will continue for but I am going to enjoy this ride. 
Where do you find outfit inspirations?
