Helping women love what they wear on a budget

What’s In Your Closet?

January 26, 2014 by Katie Haller

Last weekend I said the phrase that all women say from time to time, “I have nothing to wear”.  At that moment I had a strong urge to go shopping.  Instead of a shopping trip, I decided to give my closet a second chance. I thought that I would set a challenge for myself. In order to appreciate the clothes that I already own, I decided that this past week, I would put together a new outfit, with old clothes, every day and wear them to work. That’s just what I did.

My Closet~ What I Wore Wednesday

January 10, 2014 by Katie Haller

I know I’m a day late on posting my outfit, but I’ve been super busy this past week. I haven’t posted an outfit on Wednesday in a couple weeks, because it was New Years Day last week and Christmas the week before, but I do want to continue to post one every week. It challenges me to find new outfits in my closet every week. It’s not always easy to find old clothes and make them into a new outfit, but that’s my goal in order to stay thrifty.

My Closet~ What I Wore Wednesday

December 18, 2013 by Katie Haller

I haven’t posted anything for “What I Wore Wednesday” in a while. This has been for 2 reasons. First of all, I’ve been really busy and second of all, I haven’t really loved what I’ve been wearing. I guess I really haven’t felt that I’ve worn anything that special to work lately. I tend to repeat the outfits I like and I just don’t feel that there always worth sharing.


Well, I’m excited to say that I just got a promotion at work and I’m now the assistant director. This is something I’ve wanted for a long time. I really love working with children and I want to advance as much as I can in my career. This is just another step in accomplishing my career goals. There is a lot to learn in the position, but one thing that I feel is helpful in keeping my confidence up is to look the part. I like to wear something that I feel good in. Like I’ve said before, looking good and feeling good go hand and hand. When I’m at work I like to feel professional and cute at the same time.

Here’s what I wore this week.

My Closet~ What I Wore Wednesday

October 16, 2013 by Katie Haller

I thought it would be fun to start a “what I wore” weekly blog post. Wednesday, as we all know, in the middle of the week. It’s the day that makes us believe the weekend is right around the corner. You need to keep the week going strong and what better way to do that than putting a cute outfit together. 
I think that looking good and feeling good go hand and hand. I’ve had those mornings, like everyone else, where I just don’t care. I just want to make it through the day, so I throw my barely dry hair up in a ponytail, put on whatever I pull from my drawer and do the bare minimum makeup. In the past, when I have done this my day ends up going the same way it started. I end up not caring and not doing the best job I can do at work. I spend 40+ hours a week at my job. That’s a lot of time and I want to feel good when I’m there. I want to feel confident and professional. Honestly, I think the way you present yourself reflects on the kind of person you are. Especially in the workplace, no matter where you work. Would you not care about your appearance when you go to a job interview? 

 Trust me, I don’t have a very glamorous job. I am an infant teacher at a child care center, so finding something to wear to work involves, finding something that’s appropriate, cute, comfortable and something I don’t mind getting the occasional spit upon. That’s not going to stop me from putting together something cute.

So here is my Wednesday outfit. The dress code at my work is no jeans except for Fridays.
 
Grey khaki- Old Navy
Black long sleeve shirt- Old Navy
Pink and grey infinity scarf- Five Below
 Black flats- Target 
  It’s casual, comfortable and of course affordable. I make sure to designated my work clothes as “work only” clothes. This means I can wear them around babies, without being afraid to get paint, baby food or anything else that might come out of my little friends. 
I hope to keep up with this post and continue to find cute work outfits to share.
Happy Wednesday! Friday is almost here!
