what i wore*

happy wednesday!

i am hoping this day finds
you doing well
that you are happy & content
i challenge you give someone
just ONE of your smiles!
i have heard that
smiling takes less facial muscles
than frowning!




it is very wet and rainy
once again...
a couple days
of sun and then
just when you start to
warm up a bit...
the rain comes down again-
oh, boo!

i am posting
an outfit today
after the 30 for 30 daily photo,
one outfit is all i can
seem to muster! :)


yellow cardi (h&m in france!) necklace (ashley)  leopard top is actually a
nightie i thrifted...I tucked it in and loved it! khaki skirt and tights... (target), belt is from an old dress.
so then i decided to untuck it put on skinnie jeans and belt it...i liked it both ways! :)


question?
have you ever bought something like this nightie
and decided to wear it out in public?

i personally have done this
intentionally twice now
i  bought a nightie and a slip 
with the sole purpose of not using them
for their intended purpose.
when i bought this particular
one, i was planning to re-fashion
it and make it shorter...i still might
do that by making it shorter and with
a rounded hemline.

so, have you ever done this?
what did you wear?
or do you think i am nuts? LOL
oh wait a minute...maybe i shouldn't
ask that last question?!!!! hehe

be blessed today,
melody

Very cute outfit. Love the nightie as a shirt. And, yes, I have purchased things and worn them completely different. Two years ago I bought a knit robe from Kmart, it looks like a long cardigan, so I usually wear it with jeans, tee and boots. No one knows it's supposed to be a robe except me and now you. :-)

That yellow cardi is adorable. I love H&M! I've bought a nightie before and considered wearing it in public. Sometimes they make really cute camies!

you are not going to believe this but... I have a leopard print negligee!!! It's more of a cotteny material however.. and I don't know if I will ever be brave enough to wear it as an over topper but if i ever do... I PROMISE YOU I won't wear it the same time you wear yours. LOL!!
