fancy pants

 

There are some days where you just feel like being demure. Like today when I wore sensible shoes, a plain cardigan and a camel skirt belted up with a matching skinny belt.


And my reason? Hubby was a guest preacher at a country church which we visited today. I felt like a little tired, plus I was The Preacher's Wife. (I like to be appropriate when I can.)


We ended up having a fabulous day with such a friendly bunch of people. We came home after a delicious huge lunch, a wonderful afternoon with new friends, full, tired (hence the bags under the eyes!) and happy. Our four year old made lots of new little friends and wanted to know when we would go back and visit again. Our one year old slept the whole afternoon, which is always a treat!


Are there times when you dress to suit how you feel? Or change your attire to suit the situation?

All you have to do is follow me, add your Fancy Pants post below and add a link back to me in your post. You can also include the lovely button (below)Then pop over to visit other bloggers who are dressing up this week. As for me, I can't wait to see what you've put together (and what excuse you had to dress up).
 
Kymmie wears: CARDIGAN, Glassons (2 for $30). SUEDE-LIKE SKIRT, Suzanne Grae (purchased eight years ago). SHOES, Zu. BELT, Dotti (cute, cute, cute!). PERSONALISED NECKLACE, Koolaman Designs (details here). RING, A celtic market somewhere. NAIL POLISH, Maybelline Forever Strong Berry Persistent (my favourite colour!).


a day in the life of us

  10. looking fab. You do make me laugh that you call those heels sensible shoes. Once upon a time I used to as well. Now they would be fancy shoes for a special occassion. Isn't that sad.

    Look fantastic.
