Wed OOTD: Tuxedo Inspired

[aqualuv]

Morning! @smorriso I love your outfit for the challenge. And your make up is amazing. Love the bold lip color.

I looked through my closet and some pins but I couldn't make anything work. Ugh!

Thanks aqualuv! How have your first few days back been treating you? Has it gotten a bit easier? You look great.

Thank you! The first day I was pretty overwhelmed with work. Thankfully a lot was taken care of while I was out, but my files were all over the place so I had to get organized first. Today I feel great. It has certainly gotten easier. I call my grandmother twice a day to check in and I know part of why I feel good is that I know he is in great hands.

I'm happy to be getting back to a routine. I scheduled my first post partum spin class for Saturday. I can't wait.

Put in my extensions from when I went darker so my hair is kind of reverse ombre today.

@smorriso You look great!
aqualuv Seriously, you look awesome!

I didn't do the challenge. It was pouring rain and I was seriously feeling unmotivated to leave the house.

[aqualuv]

jm1211 Thank you so much! Y'all know how to make a girl feel great. ☺️

I love your top. It's so pretty.

Looking at the photo, I should have paired my lips with red instead of natural like @smo.

Morning ladies! So up early and out the door without mascara or lipstick, so you get a selfie too. I planned this look to be paired with a red lip and simple winged liner. Am I the only makeup planner with outfits? Please tell me no. lol

I'm wearing my new NARS Audacious lipstick in Carmen. It is friggin fantastic. Holy Grail status. This line is amazing and shockingly worth the money, imo.

Nope! I do the same thing.   :Y:

Hey @smorriso - what pants are those? I am a ON pixie pant fan for work but I LOVE the shape of the pants you are wearing!

[phoenixrising]

I am donating blood today and then have class tonight, so even if I had something tuxedo-inspired, it would have earned me a side-eye!

[lostarz]

This is the closest I had for the challenge.

I was running late for DS's Dr appointment so this is all I could put together in a hurry.

Rewearing my Justin Timberlake dress w/last year's Target blazer. I need to have it altered though


ETA:  Not sure if you can see it or not but the tulle on the dress has polka dots on it too.  To go with the blazer.  I love this dress and glad that I've finally figured out another way to wear it other than just for date night.

I LOVE this outfit!!  You look great!  I'm also giggling at your DS's flags on the headboard.

No challenge for me today. If I wore a button down and blazer to work everyone would think I was interviewing for a new job. Plus I don't even own a blazer!

New purchase Kenneth Cole Reaction faux leather jacket

jm1211 I love your top!

[char217]

completely forgot about the challenge! You gals look awesome today. My outfit is boring, but I love my Jcrew field jacket, It makes my outfit a little less boring.

Thank you!  DS has been watching way too much home renovation/decor shows with us lately.  He insisted that we needed the flags in the bedroom.

Tuxedo day!



Skirt is new from Old Navy. I hope my shirt is hiding the fact that the waistband of the skirt is 4" too big so I rolled it down twice. It's going straight into the alteration pile when I get home!

[ilovebed]

I couldn't find anything in my closet that fit the challenge. But I am wearing this dress tat I haven't been able to fit in to for 4 years at least. And I was inspired by Smo's bold lip.

[house]

I am going to bed but just wanted to say y'all look awesome today!

That lipstick looks awesome on you!  How do you get the edges to look so sharp?  Every time I apply Ruby Woo it looks like it's bleeding.  Did you use a lipliner with it?  If so which color?
