It was this day that I remembered I should blog my outfits, because then I'm more inspired, and I've definitely been lacking inspo in the clothes department lately!  

OOTD--20 March 2014-1

It's actually been fairly warm in Misawa...rare for March!  The girls and I went shopping today (there's a lot of that happening lately...the countdown to our move back to America is ticking down quickly!).  I took advantage of the weather and the melted snow and wore this...

Hello flat-wearing weather!  

Cardi--Japanese (seriously NOT sure why anyone got rid of this...it has tiny hearts all over!!!)
Sweater--New York & Company
Skirt--Victoria's Secret
Tights--Japanese (they have FUZZIES inside so you stay warm!!!)
Flats--Shoe Dazzle

OOTD--Fourteenth Minus One March, Two Thousand Fourteen Minus One

What a mouthful.
Anyways, this was an outfit I wore about two weeks ago for our coffee that was supposed to be somewhat spring-themed.  Winter is long round here ya'll.  So the invite said "wear something that makes you happy"...hot pink jeans it is then!  Today I'm wearing them to the mall.

I feel so proper in this picture

...but the others are too blurry/offcenter.  Hi swimsuit. 

Alcohol Caffeine Nicotine shirt: Urban Outfitters (although now I think this shirt is more me:  Coffee Cupcakes Wine Shirt)
Cardi: AE
Jeans:  AF

OOTD--Love Boat Edition--9 March 2014 - 1

Saturday was Misawa's Spouses Dining In...basically what is usually a formal(ish) but fun event for the military made spouse-friendly.  Since we make it way more fun and don't wear uniforms, each squadron or group comes up with a theme for their costumes and table.  The overall theme was 70s tv shows, and we picked/were assigned "The Love Boat."  Our costumes were fairly simple, since we decided to make tshirts...

Kinda just let the hair run wild....

Me from behind...our shirts say "14 FS" and "WOOD!" on the anchor and "Come aboard...We're expecting you!" underneath it.  

Star rockin her outfit much better than I!

Shirt--Custom Ink

Shorts--Target

Shoes--Roxy

Bracelets--Korean

Hat & Scarf--provided by a few of the lovely ladies in my squadron

OutfitS of the Day--Super Hero Edition--8 March 2014-1

Another dual outfit day!  

A few of the girls & me went shopping in the morning.  I went simple:

Jeans:  AF
Shirt:  Express
Cardi:  Victoria's Secret
Necklace:  Korean
Earrings:  Express
Headband:  Japanese
Boots:  Land's End

Then, that night, we went out for Adine's Going Away party ::sniff, sniff::  She loves super heroes, so we all dressed up as one, real or fake.  I had no idea what to do since I don't even own, say, a Wonder Woman tshirt...and Adine said I should go as " 'Super House Wife', complete with powers of looking fabulous and gettin shit done."  Since that's basically the mode I've been in lately, I totally took the idea and ran with it...

Meet my alter ego:

Cardi & Earrings:  Express
Necklace:  Target
Kanazashi (hair flower):  Japanese store
Skirt:  Urban Outfitters
Tights:  Shoedazzle
Shirt:  BX (it has a REALLY cute back that I can't show you because my back is ugly right now)
