Dear Mother Nature,

While this may be pretty,

and make for some intriguing instagram photos,

I prefer that you keep your shitty weather to yourself so hubs doesn't have to work 15 hour shifts. 

Thanks.

Dear Instagram,

   Thanks for helping me make my point to that Mother Nature b*tch. Visuals always help. Oh and thanks for making my pictures 1000x times more interesting than a regular camera. Your pretty sweet. 

WIWW: This or that? {{feedback please}}

Do you ever get dressed in the morning and ask yourself "does this go"?? Unfortunately the mirror doesn't reply back {at least it hasn't for me yet....}

I had that moment twice this week so I thought I would shoot for some reader interaction and bug ask what your opinions and which one you would choose. 

Here's the first one: Which boots?

Errands

Black Tank and Grey Cardi - Gap

Black Leggings: TJ Maxx

Brown Boots: Bamboo {via charming charlies}

Black Boots: Old Navy

Belt: Old Navy

So which boots do you guys think work better, the brown or black ones?

Next: Which skirt/belt?

Work

Navy Blazer: Banana

Plaid Shirt: Gap Kids

Grey Tights & Booties: Old Navy 

Both Skirts: American Eagle {both are like, 13 years old!}

Striped Belt: no clue ;)

Red Belt: Target

Thoughts on the skirt choice?

Here's what I chose:

and

Except now that I see pictures of them I think I would have chosen the other options both times. Damn. 

I also tried to branch out and added a blue skirt this week...

Work

Black Sweater: Loft

Blue Skirt: Urban Outfitters

Black Boots: Old Navy

I also loaded on the bracelets. I'm loving this look!

Confession: the bead bracelet is actually a necklace wrapped around twice and secured with a safety pin. It blended right in :)

One last thing....

My amazing seister got me an ah-maz-ing birthday/Christmas gift - an iphone 4s!!!!

Wahoooooooooooooo

SO one of the first things I did was search for some good fashion aps and I stumbled on Fashism. It's a fashion ap {duh, really? haha} that allows you to post pictures of your outfits and get feedback from their users. Here's a great explanation of the ap by Lauren Indvik from Mashable:

The app is designed to help users solicit and give real-time feedback to Fashism’s fashion-conscious community on the go. Many users often snap photos of themselves before heading out to school or work, or while trying on clothes in a dressing room, and upload them to Fashism with their iPhones. Users can browse all looks by recency, as well as follow (and be followed by) specific users.  

I used it for the first time today and LOVE it. It's not only good to illicit outfit feedback but it's a great time waster as well! My only complaint is that you can't pin to pinterest yet, but I'm sure it's in the works. 

And now it's your turn! Which boots/skirt would you guys pick and will you jump on the fashism train?
