I’ve always been into ladylike dressing, and today’s outfit is pretty representative of my work uniform as of late: a pretty blouse (bonus points for frilly details like a ruffle or floral print… or BOTH!), a pleated midi skirt, and prissy shoes to match.

If you follow me on Instagram, you know that I picked these wonderful shoes at Joe Fresh for a song in the spring. And I’m still kicking myself for not scooping up more colors, because I’ve darned near run these things into the ground by wearing them so often!  Which is so funny, because I used to be a hoarder when it came to items I really loved.  I’d save them for “special occasions” for fear of wearing them out too soon.  Over the past few years, I’ve become quite the opposite.  If I find something I really like, I’ll wear it over and over again (and possibly get it in several colors if it’s really amazing).

And what about you guys? Do you save the things you love and only wear them occasion, or do you wear them every chance you get?
