What to Wear or What NOT to Wear?.... that is the Question

In my previous post I told you that Morgan and I have basically the same style.  I want to start sharing our style with you by posting our "Outfits of the Day."  Don't count on us doing this everyday because, well, some days we just want to lounge in our pj's or leggings.  Nobody wants to see that!

I am very lucky to have a friend like Morgan because she has a habit that benefits me greatly.... she is a shopper!  I'm talkin' the good stuff like clothes and home decor.  So when she does her thing at the store and brings home her goodies, she usually runs into a little problem.... where to put her new purchases????  That is where I come in.  Being the good friend that I am, I lovingly take her "old" stuff so that she can make room for all the "new."  Needless to say, I love this arrangement.  I am no moocher, so just hush!  My closet is filled to overflowing with such great hand-me-downs.

When I am having a "feeling cute and stylish" day, I usually take a pic of the outfit and post it on my instagram.  Morgan happens to stumble across my pictures and comments "Why did I give you that shirt again?"  lol  My reply.... "No take-backs!"  Just kidding!  I would loan her the clothes off my back any day.  They used to be hers, after all.

So here are a few pics of the outfits that I have been wearing.  Some pieces are mine but mostly they are cute hand-me-downs that I put my own twist on.  Enjoy!

Green Shirt From Morgan.  Paired with Boyfriend cut jeans from AE and a navy blue cardigan... and of course UGGs.  The little boy in the picture is my baby, Gavin.  He is pretty stylin' himself, wearing a Target flannel, H&M dark skinny jeans, Yo Gabba Gabba Vans and his daddy's hat (that is wayyy too big.)

Banana Republic stripped sweater, with dark blue t-shirt from Target peeking under.  Paired with my Favorite Boyfriend cut jeans and Uggs.

Old Navy plaid button-up with a cream sweater over it.  Paired with a black mini and black tights.  On my feet are my favorite brown mid-calf boots from Charlotte Russe.  I wear those things with everything!

Same shirt as above, just with a denim jacket.  Simple and cute!

Okay, it's kind of embarrassing that I'm wearing the same shirt in 3 pictures, but oh well.  This time I layered it with my red dress from Forever21 that cost me a whopping $17.  Can't beat that!

....and lastly, I have on my trusty black leggings from Old Navy, brown boots from Charlotte Russe, my favorite coat from H&M and brown infinity scrarf.  Under my coat I am wearing a shirt, I just can't remember which one it is.  Sorry =)  On my head is the cowl that Morgan had posted about.  After much begging, she knitted it for me.  I wear it often, either as a cowl scarf or a hat (by putting a rubber band on one end.)
