What I Wore Wednesday - Quality Time with the Hubs

I realize it's not Wednesday, but this is what I wore on Wednesday. =)  The Hubs and I have been off of work all week, so we sent the kids to daycare and had a date day. What? That's not me being a bad mom! That's me keeping my marriage young and fresh and all that jazz.  We went to a local seafood restaurant for some absolutely scrumptious shrimp & cheesy grits and then went to see Sherlock Holmes.  

And this, my friends, is what I deem appropriate for a date day. =)

So, as you've probably noticed I've been kind of MIA the past week or so in the blogging community and I'm sorry!! I'll be back as soon as things get back to normal next week. If you're new to the blog and have recently left a comment or something of that nature, I'll be heading over to say hi really really soon! I thought it was crazy busy and difficult to fit everything in when I'm working, but it's even more difficult when I'm on vacation! lol

I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas with your families and that you'll have a happy and safe New Years!!

I'm linking up today with the fabulous girls over at Monday Mingle and with The Pleated Poppy.

What I Wore Wednesday - Mismatched

What happens when your 18-month old is up most of the night crying, thanks to those pesky vampire teeth coming in? (Side note, yes, I call those little pointy teeth next to the first four teeth vampire teeth. I guess they're supposed to be eye teeth, but "vampire teeth" makes so much more sense. Right?) Anyways, back to what happens when this mom is sleep deprived. I throw on a purple tank top under my tan tunic.  Then on my way out the door, I think to myself, "These new red boots will look fab with my tan tunic!!" And . . . I totally forget that I'm wearing a purple tank top.  So, this is what you get.

Tunic: Target ($18)

Jeans: Eddie Bauer Outlet ($10)

Tank: Express ($10)

Boots: Rue 21 ($30)

Bracelets & Watch: My Sister's =)

Yes, it totally clashes, but whatevs. At least I got the chance to wear these new boots. Funny story about these boots. My sister came home Sunday night and said, "Tiff!! Rue 21 has the cutest red boots that will look so good with your brown leggings!" So, of course, during my lunch break on Monday, I ran over there and bought them. But . . . they were having a BOGO 1/2 off sale. So, I had to get another pair too... Which you'll see tomorrow.

And in case you're wondering, yeah, I've totally jumped ship on the shopping ban. I tried. I did so good the first 60-ish days. And then it all came crashing down this last month. Oh, well, 60-ish days without shopping is pretty good, too. =)

But really... red boots? Every girl needs a pair of red boots, right? Right?? ;)
