What I Wore {ten}

On Friday Ian graduated from a local leadership program he did (Leadership Modesto), so we got all dressed up to go to the graduation. My entire outfit was inspired by my hair. I wore pigtails and a scarf that day. I was planning on showering and redoing my hair, but Ian said it looked cute, so I went with it.

In order to match my black scarf, I chose a black dress. I still wanted to look summery, so added some color with my shoes and necklace.


Dress: Target
Scarf: Banana Republic
Necklace: a gift
Shoes: Banana Republic

This entire outfit is years old, which makes what happened at Ian's graduation even more funny. Some ladies were telling me how "in" the color of my accessories were this year...I will agree given that I have purchased both jeans AND shorts in this color this year. But I thought it was funny given that my shoes and necklace are at least 6-7 years old.

After the graduation, Miss Isla ripped the necklace off my neck, so it will have to be repaired before I can sport it again. Such is life as a mama.

  1. Good for you looking 'in' with older clothes! Just goes to show you how circular and fickle fashion can be. And looking at you goes to show how adorable fashion can be. I love that bold statement necklace! Too bad Isla (tried) to destroy it and good thing it can be repaired!
