Remember back in the day when I started Fashion Fridays?
Ya….wasn’t that fun, those good ol’ days???
So wanna know why it ended?
When we took in a foster son, which made my total kid count come to 3, I suddenly found myself WAY in over my head.
Fashion???
What was fashion and who the heck had time to take pictures of outfits, that let’s be honest, I only put on for the pictures in the first place.
And even with him now living with his soon to be adopted family, and my kid count back down to 2, I still manage to forget that I actually enjoy getting dressed and putting on makeup.
I find that I can go a week without wearing a stitch of makeup, and rather than use the curling or flat iron, I have become mighty creative with a quick braid.
I have stacks and stacks of jeans, all of which are ignored because they don’t have the drawstring waist I prefer.
And those cutesy vintage tops I collect?
Ya, they all need a bra to be worn underneath, and if you know me….
You know I prefer to send bras in lunches rather than wear one.

So needless to say, Fashion Friday has become a thing of the past.
But just as in life, you gotta change with the times…..so I am realizing, the same goes with fashion posts….
And since I DO like to get dressed up, when something like bible study or a girls night out comes along, I actually tend to OVERDO it, just to make up for lost time.
And THOSE will now be the times I take pictures to share with ya’ll.
I’ll call them…
What I Wore Out
{has a catchy ring to it, right?}

I can’t say they’ll be all high fashion-y, (when have they ever?), but I will promise I won’t be wearing my usual X-Large Hanes tees and baggy drawstring waisted sweats.
Your welcome.
I’ll realize I’ll never be a true “fashion blogger” by taking a here and there approach to fashion posts….but then again, I’ve never been able to be labeled as any one thing since I started this blog anyway!
And now onto last night…bible study social time.
I even put on mascara!
outfit details:
tunic: fashion avenue, thrifted
jeans: jolt, only the best jeans ever
leather jacket: apple bottom, thrifted
wedges: madeline stuart, thrifted

And there you have it.

Lookin’ good. Although I enjoy all of your posts, I’m glad the fashion posts are making a comeback.
Love it all!
Love the outfit! Reminds me of Rachel Zoe who I adore! Coming from someone who’s in desperate need of a low budget makeover. : )
Those wedges are amazing!
Gosssh, I love clothess… you look awesome!!
very very cute!! Love all of it from the leather jacket down to those awesome jeans. I love that more flattering flare/open leg jeans are back in style this year they are way more flattering on everybody than skinny jeans ( which I also love unfortunately on a fat day)
wow if you can do this with 3 kids, redecorating your place, tracy workouts and all, I can certainly make more of an effort… I love being a girly girl too 😉
Love the outfit!
Love it!!! You look fab as always Summer <3
You’re like one of those chicks who always look so put together without really trying. Fab!
Love the outfit!! You always look great!!!
