Polka Dot Dress

Just bought this dress (similar), and am so excited about it. Stay tuned for 50 ways to wear it because it’s pretty versatile. Wore it last night to my fancy Secret Santa party which I’ve been looking forward to for quite a while (Great Job Katie and Anna!!!) and I think it’ll be around for Christmas eve, and probably New Year’s. I plan to wear it with a turtleneck, a denim jacket, a flannel shirt . . . and the list goes on…

Think Pink

December 12, 2012

Pink Vest

Vest, Similar Top, Similar Jeans, Boots, Similar Watch

Clearly I have an obsession with pink. My last 5 posts have featured something pink. A couple years ago, I found myself loving pink and not owning any! But this year it seems everything I’ve bought is pink! Do you purchase clothes in color waves? This pink wave may last for a while.

On Repeat

December 11, 2012

Glitter Boots

Similar Jacket, Flannel, Pink Cords, Boots

These boots have been on my feet almost every day since I bought them. I honestly didn’t know I would enjoy them this much. But they have a heel high enough to give me some lift, but low enough that they’re still comfortable to wear all day. Usually when I buy something that I love, I have to take it off long enough to wash it. But these don’t have to be washed. Therefore, I can wear them all day everyday. Don’t even try to stop me.

My Everyday Items

December 10, 2012

My Everyday

1: A denim shirt
2: Boyfriend jeans
3: A classic bag in cognac
4: Glitter boots
5: A Vest (to keep arms moving freely)
6: Big Black Sunglasses
7: Ponte Knit Leggings (They look like pants, but feel like leggings!

In case you were wondering, this is classic Linda. These 7 items are my everyday. I am having a tough time wearing anything else. I try to only post outfits with a little variety, but if you ran into me at Target, 9 times out of 10, you’d see me wearing most of these items. Of course, I couldn’t wear both of these pants together. So while washing one, I wear the other. But if I could wear them both, I would. Sometimes, the classics are the best.

What are your classics?
