Closet Confection: It Takes Two To Make It Outta Sight

2010_1108_outfit3

When: Monday, November 8th, 2010

Where: Work

What: Coat (Miss Sixty via Burlington Coat Factory), hat (Forever 21), shirt ($10 vintage and thrifted), dress ($20 Ben Sherman via Daffy’s), belt (???), tights ($6 Emilio Cavalli via Daffy’s), shoes ($50 Vince Camuto via Loehmann’s)

I’m only two days in and this 30 for 30 remix is already starting to have its perks.

As I mentioned yesterday, I’ve become way more obsessive over accessories… to the point where I’ve laid out my entire work wardrobe for the rest of the week all the way down to the earrings.

And because I love making lists, I of course have this all typed out in a tidy little excel spreadsheet.

It’s a sickness, don’t even try and help me.

In any case, my propensity toward excel spreadsheets helped me out immensely this morning as I was getting ready for work.  The daylight savings time switcheroo completely screwed with the alarm clock setting on my iPhone, leaving me with, horror of horrors, only 15 minutes to get ready for work this morning. Eek!

Luckily, I was able to pull together a well thought-out ensemble in no time at all by consulting my handy little list.

In other fashion news, I’ll let you guys in on a little secret…

I purchased this shirt in the little boys’ section of one of my favorite vintage thrift stores.  Since I consider myself to be a curvy gal, shopping in the kids’ section never really occured to me until I stumbled upon this shirt. I didn’t even realize it was a boy’s shirt until I went to try it on and noticed the buttons were on the wrong side and there were collar stays still left in.

My husband had to explain to me what collar stays were.  And after he did, I was all kinds of jealous.  Why don’t women’s shirts come with collar stays?  Why do we have to be the ones stuck with floppy, droppy collars?

I’m just sayin’…

And lest I forget, I couldn’t possibly give this post the above title without dropping a funky track.  With that being said…

One, Two, Three… Hit It!
