Fashionspirations: Blogger Style

Ever since I started reading fashion and lifestyle blogs a couple years ago, I found myself being inspired by other bloggers to make the extra effort to look nice in the morning even if I didn't feel like it.  Reading other blogs has also inspired me to incorporate more color into my wardrobe that was once 90% black or white.  

One of my favorite bloggers, Skylette from Sequins and Stilettos, wore this outfit recently and, as you can tell,  I was more than inspired by it since I nearly copied it to the tee!  Skylette has such great style!  Whereas, before, I probably would have just worn black pants, but seeing Skylette wear her striped top with colored pants opened my horizons :-)   Has anyone else been inspired by something you saw on a blogger, pinterest, etc?

Who wants to visit Florida this week??  We've got beautiful stormy weather and grey skies in the forecast for the week!  Unfortunately, I woke up feeling pretty drab this morning much of it due to the yucky weather outside.  My mood to wear something comfy overpowered any sense of wanting to look put together.  Here's to hoping for better Florida weather!

Whenever I get super busy at work, it's nice to know that when I get home I have quality television shows to indulge in such as Dance Moms Miami and the Real Housewives of New Jersey.  You know, important stuff to watch.  In all honesty, Bravo and, now, Lifetime have my favorite shows on tv.  Dance Moms is so crazy and I can't miss an episode!  Kind of like My Big Fat Gypsy Wedding on TLC, where the people and clothes are so out there and the show isn't that great but I...can't...stop...watching!

Sparkle in the Workplace

It's hard to tell in this photo but the sweater I'm wearing and wore to work is gold...and sparkly...and glittery...and I love it!  My hubby says it borders a wee bit on the Liza Minnelli side but maybe that's why I love it ;-)
