What are you wearing today? (and what I wish I was)

Can you believe it's already Friday again? How was your week? What are you wearing today? Is it awesome?

Dear readers, my outfit is not. In fact it may be the antithesis of awesome, filling no one I see today with glee. Truth is, I've kind of hit the wall with summer 2008 style. My new shoes, my great hope of fashion resuscitation, have not arrived yet and basically I'm feeling sick of everything. If I have to look at another pair of gladiators or yet one more maxi dress, I might be forced to choke myself with an exotic-print scarf.

Ok. So here it is, my outfit: I'm actually wearing LEGGINGS (forgive me); a long, baggy, mesh-ish, lavender-colored tank-top sweater and...flip-flops. I'm kind of doing an early-80s work-out goes to the beach in 1994. It's confusing.

However, what I wish I was wearing is the following: These incredible canvas, gold-tipped flats by Dru (on sale for $48 from $121!); a navy blue shift dress perhaps with gold buttons; thick, medium-sized gold hoops and my hair in a pretty, neat bun. Like a '50s Italian lady.

Your turn. Fantasy or reality.

    I tried to dress bright and summery today despite the gloomy rainy weather outside. I wore a printed circle skirt with greens, mustard yellow and beige paired with a mustard yellow tank top under a short sleeve beige cardigan belted with a thin white belt. I wore the outfit with a pair of pale gold ballet flats.

    Gloomy day in ny...wearing a black dress from Express (casual) with purple embelished tank underneath with black flats and silver cuff and earings. More importantly...what is everyone wearing out tonight...that's what I want to know!

    Well, what I'm wearing is most certainly not what I want to be wearing. I am wearing jeans, quite regular I might add, a button blouse and black pumps, and this is not achieving the look I wanted, which would be jeans, a nice pink or yellow girly top with matching peep toe flats.

    Sorry Jennifer, I am wearing a brown and black maxi dress, brown cardigan, and brown leather wedges. It was the first thing I grabbed this morning seeing that I was running late for work because I didn't hear the alarm. Nyquil will do that to you! As far as tonight, I will probably be in a t-shirt and sweats seeing that I am putting our wedding invitations together. Have a great weekend everyone!

    Dreery day in Ohio and I dressed the part. Starting with my my feet....

    Closed toe black pumps, Gray slacks, black cap sleeve Limited sweater, small silver hoops and a silver cuff bracelet. The only highlight is my BIG red H&M bag :)I would much rather be wearing a bright sundress with metallic sandals and turquoise jewelry! Enjoy the rest of your day!

    Oh, you girls make me so sad. I'm in construction, so I'm wearing the everyday formula of workboots, jeans, wifebeater tank and button-up shirt. I can't wear sandals, can't wear shorts, can't wear dresses, can't wear tank tops, can't wear fancy. IT SUCKS. Wish I was wearing anything else, anything cooler in Central Florida.
