What I Wore Wednesday: Maxi Dress and Old Jean Jacket

So you already know I bust a hole in the only jeans that fit and I'm not exactly happy with the weight/shape I am right now. So when I went to get dressed for a TEDx meeting I was a bit frustrated. It was actually a really nice evening so I couldn't throw on leggings and a dress so I pulled out this Old Navy Maxi Dress.

The dress is a tube top and strapless bras do NOT work on me so I threw this jean jacket on over the top to cover my bra straps! I've had this jean jacket since the summer before I went to University. I got it at an outlet mall in Georgia in 1998 and something tells me I should probably buy a new jean jacket. 

Over the past almost 15 years every time I go to buy one I think "Oh hey I have that jean jacket already and I don't really wear one that often" but really I should suck it up and buy a new one already. Regardless it did the job on this occasion and hopefully it wasn't painfully obvious it was purchased around the same time Wyclef was telling us all he was going to be "Gone 'Til November." Man I freaking loved that song. Anyway I digress....

What is the oldest article of clothing you have that you still wear? Do I need to throw the jacket out already or am I not the only one who has held on to something so long?

What I Wore Wednesday

Most days this is what I'm wearing. Not very glamorous but it is what it is. Working from home while watching a toddler means most days I rarely leave my living room so formal attire is shockingly not required. I'm never going to be one of those women who get dressed up for grocery shopping or toddler groups; when I have someplace to go and someone to see I like to look my best but if it is just Blondie Boy and I kicking it style takes a backseat.


If I'm wearing a t-shirt 9 time out of 10 it will be of the Cincinnati Reds, Cincinnati Bengals or Cincinnati Bearcats variety. I don't know if I'd rep my hometown so much through fashion if I still lived there but I certainly wear it with pride over here. What are your go to comfy clothes?
