all things inspired: what i wore wednesday (first edition)

I decided that it would be fun to link up on Wednesdays with the girls over at {the pleated poppy} with my own "what I wore Wednesday" posts. I think a HUGE motivator for me to begin a good day is to simply rise early, shower, scripture, and dress for the day. If not, then I'm wearing a faded college t-shirt and yoga pants when the UPS man arrives at 1pm.

And I do not even do yoga. Anyway.

I have created my own "rules" for my Wednesday posts, which basically means I will only post clothes that are either thrifted, gifted, goodwilled, clearanced, or sale priced. Nothing, I repeat NOTHING will I ever post that I just went to the store and paid full price for. Those days are over. (Unless it is a "gifted" item from a friend. Then I have no idea how much they paid for it...)

SO, here's my first edition "What I Wore Wednesday":





:: brown blazer, Hollister (thrift store, $4) ::
:: pink cardigan (thrift store, $2) ::
:: patterned tank top, Target (clearance, $2) ::
:: skinny jeans, Old Navy (clearance, $9) ::
:: yellow scarf (gifted, from Jenni Keller of {Scarves with Heart}) ::
:: pink ballet flats with flowers (thrift store, $2) ::

If you saw me at dance class yesterday, this is what I was wearing, so I guess technically this is also what I wore Tuesday...

(Special thanks to my husband for taking these pictures in the sprinkling rain this morning, while he was attempting to load his police vehicle and radio Central that he was 10-7. Also of note: that old gray pick up truck in the background of the first photo is the neighbor's truck, not ours. Kind of hard to take a picture in our neighborhood WITHOUT a pick up truck in the background. Ohhh, Tennessee...)
