Spring Inspired Office Outfit

     

     Happy 2015, y'all! I am so excited to be working on my blog basically fulltime right now. My creative juices are flowing, and I feel more inspired every day. If you are someone thinking of making a huge choice this year, such as pursuing your dreams, I say go for it! There is nothing better than being excited about what you do every day.

     I chose a burgundy pencil skirt from Nordstrom's, and an accordion sleeve type, keyhole top with a floral design from Steinmart. I tucked the top into the skirt, and I think it looked so elegant. The heels are from DSW.

     It's been pretty crummy in Dallas lately, so I have been thinking of bright and cheerful outfits to share. I hope you feel inspired. Feel free to share any of your outfits with me on Instagram @dressdynamicdallas.

Tuesday's Outfit Idea

     I was planning on running around and finishing errands today, but since I tend to procrastinate, I will be spending my Christmas Eve buying last minute tidbits. As I'm sure I won't be the only one, I'm expecting a crazy day tomorrow. Not to mention, I go to church at 2 PM, and then head to a family dinner later in the evening. I'm looking forward to a busy day, since I'm usually at home or work most other days. Last night, and this evening, I have been making snowflakes and decorating around our presents, since we don't have any snow yet this year in Dallas. I'm making it our very own white Christmas. 

     Today I chose an outfit that started with a pair of black, skinny pants from Nordstrom's. My knee-high boots are from Forever 21. My blue cardigan is from Stein Mart. You can't see, but I wore a grey, v-neck, t-shirt under the cardigan from Forever 21. My co-worker gave me the scarf last Christmas. My belt came off of a skirt I bought from Body Central. I've been seeing this style with the scarf under the belt, and I love it. 

     My new phone arrived last night as expected. It is marvelous. I'm told it's called a, "fablet," in the world of critics. I love it! It's twice as large as my last phone, but everything about it is better. The camera is better. All of the images are larger, since I need to watch my poor vision. I have access to any of the latest things an Android phone can do. I'm very pleased with it. I already had to nerd out with it and play some Sims, and other fun games. 

     Anyway, happy Christmas Eve eve!

Clamp Ons or Glamp Ons?

   

     There is nothing worse than stepping out of a vehicle or a building, and falling on your rump because it is slippery. Winter has its perks, but ice and snow can be dangerous. When I was going through my email the other day, I read an article from Fashionista discussing whether grips could replace snow boots, and I could argue yes and no because these ones from Minxx are adorable. For $38 they are also even more appealing. I have never actually tried these on, so I am not sure how these would be with snow and ice on the ground. They look sturdy and cover most of the foot. I'd give 'em a go. 

     You can purchase these Minxx grips in several different colors, including, tan, brown, and black. There is replaceable hardware, so you know they aren't just any pair of flats. I'm not so confident how warm these babies will be, but sometimes you have to make sacrifices for fashion. At least with these you won't fall flat on your face. If I saw these on sale, I would definitely purchase them.

     Let me know what you think. Would you purchase these? Have you tried these? Leave your comments below or tag me on your Instagram account @dressdynamicdallas.
