30x30 Day 22: Ace in the Hole

Day 22: 

My 30x30 challenge is 2/3 done, and after yesterday's rant about things that are stupid I wanted to wear something I knew I'd feel good about. This look was actually the first one I thought of for this dress. Why didn't I wear it sooner, you ask? Well, because I wasn't sure how this whole thing would play out, and I figured even if I had a number of flops towards the end of this challenge, I knew I'd have at least one outfit I knew I loved. Any other 30x30 girls think the same way? I've styled this dress two other ways so far, and I think I have one more look in mind before this challenge is done. 



Cardigan: JCrew (circa 2007)
Dress: Express $30
Belt: The Limited $10
Necklace: Target $3
Tights: DSW $1.5
Shoes: Nine West $30

    Love how you accessorized the dress with that gorgeous yellow necklace! I joined Twitter over the summer and at first I didn't understand it AT ALL. Now I get what all the hype is about :) Thanks so much for nominating me and for linking up!

    I can't believe this cutie necklace was only $3 from Target. Great find! Twitter is pretty confusing at first...but you get used to it!

      I have a couple ideas of things to keep it fresh, like a free button swap in February if you're interested. I have another idea for march, but am still working on the details :)

    I love the bright colors in your outfit. Wearing something bright is an easy way to cheer myself up when winter is wearing me down. And I don't have twitter either, I don't know if I'd have enough to say!

    Love the print on your dress! And yes, penguins are the cutest... my friend works for the SF Zoo and plays with them all day long. Not fair!

    Thanks for nominating me, and it was fun to get to know you better :)
