{What I Wore Wednesday — week #15}

Filed Under: what I wore

It’s time to link up with Lindsey for wiww!

Today I’m wearing Gap jeans, tank & tee from Target, and flip flops from Old Navy. Whoaaa, I changed my stores up this week ~ I feel like a big girl with #3 listed! Hah. It was seriously amazing to be outside this weekend. Our little family loved the sunshine, breeze, coffee-drinking and ball-catching time [that would be Bauer, if you weren’t sure].

Someone recently asked me why I only do 1-2 days of outfits each week, and there are many answers: I don’t have a huge wardrobe and I definitely wear a couple of the same things every week [so I don’t want to bore you]; it has rained a lot lately and been very dark out all day ~ no good for photo shoots!; and lastly because mornings are best for natural lighting, but I’m not always home during that time or able to take some pictures. I know, I live a complicated life *wink*.

I would seriously love to expand my outfits and be able to have more time for photo shoots. It has been fun and a good challenge, too — so, something to work on :]

PS. remember this is coming soon…

OK — today’s question: what is your favorite season and why?

    Favorite season: Fall
    Reason: Because it’s not too cold or too hot. The weather is perfect.

    Spring. I love the rainy weather. I love the smells and sounds of it. Plus, once it’s taken a break from the rain, everything perks up and blooms in all the wonderful colors. I love spring for the sounds, sights, & smells!!

    My favorite season (in Minnesota) is summer! People are friendly, excited to be outside, and overall in terrific moods. :) In Texas (where I grew up) My favorite it fall. Why? Because football!

    I can never pick a favorite! I’m such an indecisive person…summer is so good for blueberries and beach time, and fall…who doesn’t love pumpkin spice lattes and pretty leaves? I live in the deep south, so winter is always a welcomed break from the overbearing heat, then spring – ah butterflies and new flowers make my heart flutter.

    I LOVE the fall! Especially since moving from California to Minnesota. I think this change of season is absolutely spectacular. I love to colors, the nip in the air, the activities (like apple picking and leaf peeping). I love the promise of cozy warm fires in the safety of home. I just LOVE fall!

    There is something I like about all of the seasons, but fall is probably my favorite. I love all of the colors, wearing cute sweaters, and drinking hot chocolate. Unfortunately, I don’t get to experience that living on Guam. The only seasons I get to experience here are wet and dry.

    Fav season is probably summer because it’s warm and you have lots more time to do things like swim, craft, etc.

    i too have to vote for fall. i love the crisp air, the musty smell, and the sound of dead leaves rustling on the trees. i actualy have a word for the the act of walking through a pile of dead leaves, “trunching.” its a combination of trudging and crunching…describes it perfectly, even if i do say so myself.

    i love summer! the hot, sticky, muggy sunny weather. Yes, I like that and we don’t have AC at home. After a very LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOng winter (I live in Quebec, Canada) with complicated gear to put on (coats, hat, scarf, boots, mitts, shovelling…)all that for even just short trips there is nothing I crave more than just being able to slip on a dress and some flip flops and off I go! I am so jealous that you are already wearing flip flops!

    I am your newest follower, even tho I have been stalking you (no not stalking, Ha! lurking :) ) for a while. You inspire me, I am a beginner seamstress (is that what you call it? :) ) I am loving it and hope to someday make it my day job!

    I know what you mean about the clothes, I started linking up with Lindsey, but I am limited in my clothes.

    Take care…..Jodi

    Summer is my favorite season! I think my absolute favorite part is the long daylight hours. And the warmth means I get to sit on my deck to eat my meals and I can sit out there until the moon comes up or later. I live in the country, surrounded on all four sides by fields so my closest neighbors are horses (one field is full of adopted mustangs) so I have a nice view for me to sit and stare at. Fresh strawberry lemonade, iced tea, flip flops and ponytails…I love summer. *hugs it*

    Honey it is between spring and fall. I love spring because it puts you in the mood for change and for flowers. Spring gets you ready for pretty floral prints, dresses, and summer. But I also love the fall because it gets you ready for the Holidays . OOh I how I love the holidays!!!

    I love fall. The holidays approaching and the scent of crispness in the air.

    I ALSO love that “blue steel” look you are giving in one of the above photos. I giggle and REALLY wish I knew I ‘d see you sometime soon. We need a SHOPPING DATE. cough. AHEM.

    It would be so much fun.

    I would say summer is my favorite because school is out! I also love spring and fall because of flower and the leaves and the comfortable temperatures! I could live without winter for the rest of my life!

    girl, don’t worry about the outfits. i’m with you; some days I don’t get home until LATE, don’t have anyone to take pics of me, and to be honest, I don’t have a lot of options. why show the same outfits over and over? so, i select the outfits i share and save some for another time. :)
    p.s. you are GORGEOUS, and I love you & your pretty self!!

    thank you for being so casual. so even i can wear this! and for being honest that you don’t have a huge wardrobe. takes the pressure off me having to have a ginormous wardrobe.

    now… tell me how you fix your hair! what products you use, do you use a diffuser, everything. PLEASE. your hair style is adorable. my hair has the same type of curl, but i straighten it. need help.

    i have to say spring. after the long winter, it is so refreshing to warm up and see and feel the sunshine. i think that feeling has to be ranked pretty high on my list

    but fall is close for sure. living in SC, the summers are blazing with a capital b, and the cool air is welcomed with a big smile. but seems to go from hot to cold quick. i like the cool weather clothes better tho ; )

    Thanks girly for answering my ? about the 1-2 outfits. that’s so sweet that you took time to do that :)
    hope you dont mind my long comment, but I just wanna tell ya why i asked….

    i have a small selection of clothes, (very small) which is ok because between work (uniform) and school (uniform scrubs) i dont have to *dress* very much ; ) (and when I’m home I wear lots of comfy house pants!) …. so, i would love to see how you re-wear same pieces throughout the week. i feel like i am always wearing the same thing!! looking for some inspiration on making the *same* outfit feel different.

    hope you have a great weekend!!
