What I Wore Wednesday~Come on Irene!

Today I'm linking up at The Pleated Poppy where you can see other women trying to get out of a fashion rut!

Today's edition of What I Wore Wednesday should be brought to you by the words sweatpants & Irene.  There wasn't much time for getting out of the fashion rut while preparing for a hurricane/tornado/flooding or dealing with a basement that was taking on water (which never happens, so we weren't super prepared!) I did have a few successes and here they are!   How did I do this week?  Any suggestions?

Please don't mind the weird stance or face, my kids started to argue and I had to step-in, mid picture...and this was the better one!  I wore this green dress with flats to the pool crab social right before Irene hit.  We had already had 13 inches (or something equally crazy) of rain so I had to wear flats.  I didn't want to wear anything too nice, it was a crab fest & my husband hit me no less than 5 times with crab, trying to get it out of the shell.  So I dressed it up with some Lia Sophia Jewelry. 



I love the combo of black, white & red.  Let's face it, I love black so adding a little red makes me feel like I've added some color!  This dress fits well, very comfortable and as you can see has pockets!!! I'm on the look out for a cute pair of red shoes to jazz it up a little more, I also carried a cute red purse too!
