A new lease on marriage (and two outfits)

So, Jeff started his new job (at the same company) today; after six long months, he's finally back on day shift. I obviously realized how much I missed him when he wasn't home at night, but I didn't realize just how amazing it would be to have him home. We can be married now! :)

Yesterday, we both cleaned out our closets (so many bags of clothes to donate) and organized the basement. Last night, we popped Big Bang Theory into the TV, and I dreamily fell asleep with a sweet husband next to me. Blissful. This morning, Jeff woke up with me, ate breakfast with me, warmed up my car, reminded me to take my green tea, and saw me off to work. I knew it was going to be a good day, and it was.

I'm so happy to finally have a husband.

Please enjoy Saturday's outfit and today's outfit. (I did not dare take pictures of my "cleaning" outfit from yesterday. Not pretty.)


 Saturday's Outfit
What was I doing? Gettin' my hair did. Yay for snipping off dead ends.
What do I like? The colors and the polka dots.
What's my problem with the ensemble? Too much of one color. Agreed? I think I should keep both the pants and the top, but I think they need to be paired with different outfits. What do you think?
Also, shirt tucked in or bloused out?



Top: NY & Co.
Shoes: Target
Pants: Boscov's (I can't remember the brand, but Delia's sells them too)


Today's (Monday) Outfit
What was I doing? Teaching, duh.
What do I like? The colors. The fact that I'm channeling Green Acres
What don't I like? I wish the pants were a bit longer so that I could wear heels. The pant length made flats necessary; however, I love the shoes.  
 






Checkered button up: Old Navy
Cardigan: The Limited (comes with a tie, which I opted out of using)
Pants: NY & Co.
Necklace: A math teacher from my old school gave it to me (she was cleaning out her wonderfully styled closet...I win!)
Belt: American Eagle circa middle school (no lie)--it's also a boy's belt
Shoes: Baker's

P.S. It really makes me laugh that Saturday's outfit matched my bedroom walls, and today's outfit matched my dining room wall. I totally planned that.
