It's Friday!!! 

I have survived the first week Back to School.

The first week back is always a little bit brutal...waking up early, new schedules, new routine....lots of change.

In the summer, my wardrobe is pretty basic....swim suits, swim suit cover up, flip flops, or shorts & a tank top.

But, now that school has started back up, my outfits are more fun!

And, I love using Pinterest for outfit inspiration, especially Back to School inspiration!

It's time to link up your Pinterest Inspired outfits with me, Sheaffer & Shay!
  

Earlier this month I was on Pinterest looking for Back to School Outfit Inspiration and this is what I pinned:

I just couldn't seem to get enough of Kelly Green & Navy Blue.
I was drawn to it and kept pinning outfits with these colors.
I decided to take a look at my closet and put together some outfits with these colors.
Turns out, not only do I like to pin this color combo, but I also have a lot of it in my closet!
Here are some outfits I wore this month that I was Pin-Spired by!

Outfit #1 : Navy & Lace Tank with Green Shorts

 Shirt // Shorts // Earrings // Sandals

I loved this outfit! Before I had been wearing the navy/white lace tank top with white shorts....boring! Loved it with the green!

Outfit #2 : Navy Polka Dot Skirt & Green Tank
 
 Skirt // Tank // Shoes // Earrings // Bracelets

Can I just tell you how much I loved this outfit? LOVED it.
When I got this polka dot skirt in my last Stich Fix, I knew I had to keep it!
I was originally going to wear a white shirt with it, but after seeing some of my pins above that had polka dots with navy paired up with green, I knew I had to wear a green shirt with this outfit. And, I am so glad I did! LOVE!!

Outfit #3 : Green shirt & Skinny Jeans

Shirt // Jeans // Earrings // Bracelets // Sandals

I wore this outfit last weekend when Kevin and I went on our date night for our 12th Anniversary.
We were riding our cruisers to dinner, so I couldn't wear a skirt or a dress.
I wanted to wear this new green shirt that I got in my Stitch Fix, so I paired it with my darkest skinny jeans and I wore cognac brown sandals. I love how cognac brown goes with navy & green!

Outfit #4 - Belted Navy/Green Dress
Belted Dress // Earrings // Heels
 I love dresses. I love wearing them to school.
I especially love comfortable dresses.
Since I wear dresses to school, they need to be comfortable & not revealing.
This dress fits the bill.....and it was under $30!!!
I wore it to school on Wednesday and I got SO many compliments on the dress from co-workers!

What I love about this dress is that it comes with the belt (yes!) and I also love that when the weather gets colder, I can wear this dress with my denim jacket (this one) :
and with THESE boots.
 
I think that will be a super cute outfit as well, don't you?
I can't wait for it to be boot weather...I got those boots last year and wore them 2-3 times a week!

So, there you have it....my Navy & Green Pin-Spired Outfits!

Happy 2015!

I hope you all had a great Christmas & New Years! 

Ours was a blast, we spent the week after Christmas in Lake Tahoe.

Lots of snowy weather which I love and is so different than the warm winter weather we have in the Bay Area!

Today, it's time to Get Pin-Spired with me & Sheaffer . 

Shay is in China right now bringing home their daughter, so she isn't linking up with us this month!

I have a few looks for this month's Pin-Spired! 

Outfit #1

Polka Dot Dress & Brown Boots

I saw 2 pins that caught my eye:

My recreation:

Dress // Leggings // Boots (which are 20% off right now!!)

These were all things I had in my closet!!

 Outfit #2

Lace Shirt, Black pants, Brown boots, Gold Necklace

Pin:

 I was browsing Pinterest for ideas for what I should wear for our Family Photos.

I had everyone else's outfits picked out except mine. 

I wanted to be neutral, but coordinate with everyone else since we didn't have a matchy-matchy theme going on.

I saw this pin and knew it would look good for our photos....and I had it all in my closet! 

Here is my outift:

Shirt // Pants // Boots // Necklace (Premier)

I love how my outfit ties into Kate's lace dress :)

Outfit #3

Lace Dress, black leggings, brown boots

Pin:

 

I had this pinned and when my December Stich Fix came, I was SO excited to see this dress:

It was a green lace dress! I was so excited! Perfect to wear on Christmas Eve!

That is what I love about Stitch Fix...when you sign up for Stitch Fix, you link your Pinterest Boards to them so that know what styles you like. This dress was perfect!

Dress // Leggings // Boots // Necklace (Stella + Dot) // Earrings // Bracelets

This is my 9th month doing Stitch Fix and I am obsessed with it. It is so fun to see what arrives each month. And, you aren't obligated to keep any of it! It comes with a free shipping envelope for you to send back the items you don't want. You don't have to do it every month, you can customize it to how you want it...every other month, every 2 months, every 3 months, etc.

I think it's so funny that a few years ago I wouldn't dare wear brown boots with black clothing. 

Now, I won't dare wear black boots with black clothing because it's too much black & I just love how brown boots go with black clothing!

Outfit #4

Sequins!!!

I was looking for ideas to wear with my black sequin shirt that I got a few years ago.

The girls wore red sequin skirts for Christmas dinner and they wanted me to wear my black sequin shirt with them so we would all be wearing sequins.

So many sequin options out there, I saw 2 pins that worked with what I have in my closet:

Pin #1:

This is what I wore for Christmas dinner, it would also be a great outfit for a Christmas party or NYE party!

Kelly & Brenda's prom dresses!
It was the 90's, but I knew I could find something similar.
I went on Ebay & guess what I got for $20?
The same velvet dress, but with a red bow!
Perfect!

Pinterest really does come in handy! So does Ebay :)
I added blue eye shadow, a side pony & a scrunchie to make it more like the 80's. So fun!

So, there you have it! My Pin-Spired looks for this month!
