strawberry shortcake
Look familiar? Aside from a lift in hair and a switch in shoes, this outfit is identical to one that I showed not all that long ago. Don't get me wrong, I love this outfit to threads. The blouse's frothy pinkness favorably lends itself to dessert -- in my mind, anyway. But, it's yet another prime example of how I've been wearing the same thing every day. (The same pair of jeans, in fact. Boy, those Cheap Mondays sure went the distance.) I'm almost done catching up on old outfits that got stuck in the posting queue during the last few brain- and heart-wrenching weeks.
(Notice that I'm looking down disapprovingly and disappointedly at my words. Oh, the shame of tardiness. The dreamechoes in the photo must be silently admonishing, "Girl, you got to get it to-ge-tha!")
H&M pale pink organic tank top, F21 pink ruffle blouse, Cheap Monday skinny blue jeans, Moda Spana taupe suede wedges, INHABITstructures necklace, Gap brown leather belt (I've worn this belt weekly, if not daily, for the majority of the past eight years....)

You look very cute! I love the frillyness of your blouse.x
Cheap Mondays are apparently the way to go. Every blogger who owns them wears them 3 posts out of 5 and the always look fantastic. I gotta find me some! Love the shoes too...
i love the pink/salmon top...
and u rock the skinnies too.
xoxo. btw, i cant wait to get my skinny jeans.
Repeated wearings of a single pair of jeans is totally normal, plus the more you wear them, they more comfortable they get. The downside is that they wear out a little faster too.
I'm enjoying the longevity of the skinny jeans - it seemed like such a faddish thing when it first came out, but even though people have been declaring it over and shops are hawking wide-leg jeans, I still prefer my skinnies. It's such a easy way of getting dressed, for some reason.
I think Cheap Mondays are one of those things that Im just going to stick to liking on other people. I tried on a pair once, and decided, not for me (put that was a pre wearing skinny jeans me [never say never]).
I like your outfit, and hey, if it aint broke...
i don't have a problem with repeat outfits especially if they look as good as this :)
well you look darling... an isnt the point of clothing is to wear them more than once?
I love your hairstyle, and the top is perfect !!
Love the blouse...gosh I really thought you were referring to the Japanese soap series with the title of the post...
side pony-tail; yay!
Are skinny jeans ever out??! Seriously they are so versatile. Also I think we are the same size, can I ask what size Cheap Mondays you wear? That would really help me, since I've toying with the idea of getting a pair. They are, alas, pretty cheap...
I love your hair and the simplicity of your outfit..and this is a bit off topic....but i've often thought that the exuberance of your writing is a contrast with your mostly non-smiling countenance on your blog...:) i totally understand it's a pain to have to make fake smiles(i myself often lop my head off) but would love to see a smiley pic.
i think you look great :)
and i love cheap mondays.
they are def the way to go :)
the outfit is awesome, and repeating outfits are not a crime if they are at the magnitude of awesomeness that you have been doling out
i love the whole look! the pink and brown and the shoes too ;)
wow, what a cute outfit! and I love your hair!!!!<3
darling, u are tagged by me. see details on my blog.. xoxo.
that top is AMAZING.
That top is fabulous. I love the look of the jeans.
I notice that whenever I get stressed, I make less and less effort to look creative and I just start wearing jeans all the time. I'm usually so desperate to get to bed and tired that I just don't want to make the effort.
You said that you were busy before, so maybe it's just the stressed-ness.
fashionaddict: Repeat jeans wearer here. Guilty as charged. I'm also concerned about wearing my faves out, so I try to rotate...and buy back ups! Skinny jeans are my go-to.
lady coveted: touche!
joblessandjaded: hip hip hooray!
riz: I'll email you...
fauxfauxreal: Well, I'm all about the contrast. ;) I'm a mix of "exuberance" and toughness. Sometimes I do serious, even ruthless, writing; sometimes I do have smiley pics! I'm sure I'll have more eventually, but if you dig through my archives (the "experimentation" and "outfits quotidian" labels), you'll see some.
Sherry: Yup...I was really preoccupied with work and family stuff for the past month, so I kept it simple...in hopes of streamlining my thoughts....
The return of p-ruff! Haha!
Love the shoes and your hair looks cute like that!
It is a truly delicious shirt. The Hair is a super cute addition too.
I love this place, you're beautiful
Elisabeth: Thanks...good memory!
