Hot dots

Just wanted to drop in before the weekend and share our 'Wacky Wednesday' challenge this week - it was all about polka dots, baby!  Granted, there was nothing 'wacky' about my awesome dress, but I was in a time crunch...so it's more like 'Classy Wednesday!'
We used some pinwheels as props, I think we look pretty darm cute!  It was coincidence that Jean's skirt totally matched my dress pattern.  Also, it's hard to see in the pics, but Jean's shirt has small black dots and her shoes are also dotty!  She totally beat me this week....
This weekend I will compose a few good posts...in between helping a friend move and Shaun's 29th birthday on Saturday!

Guest post!

Hey peeps, Liz at It's Great to be Home has my guest post up today!  Yes, I realize it's very late at night, at least in Central time, but I'm a little busy 'getting married in a week'....so yes, I'm a bit late!  Please go check out the post here, all about how much I love hooks because I'm lazy. 
Also, I wanted to show you our outfits for Wacky Wednesday this week...the challenge was complementary colors (opposites on the color wheel)...
...I chose orange and blue, my favorite combo!
Jean slid her tiny ninja body into some delicious purple and yellow attire.  We were colorful and 'business sexy,' don't you think?   
We didn't plan the nude pumps, I swear.  I also find it funny that our shoulders have no hope of meeting up in this pic!

Wacky Wednesdays

Today was Wacky Wednesday.  I haven't talked about this yet, but me and my bestie started this...I guess you would call it...MOVEMENT at work.  We dream up an unusual theme for each week, and then dress that way on Wednesday.  Here was the first one, pink tights day:
We work in a rather boring office, so you can imagine the reaction we got!  Everyone LOVED the outfits, though.  And yes, my tights were more purple than pink.  Sue me!  Next week was 'mix patterns' day:
I have to admit, I was in love with our outfits that day.  Mine is hard to see, but it's a graphic patterned top tucked into my favorite Banana Republic skirt.  (I haven't been able to fit into that thing for over three years!  Can I get a whoop whoop?!)  Today was 'homage to the 70s' in honor of Earth Day this Friday, which was started in 1970: 
You have to see us 'fashionable ladies' lounging in our office conference room....I think it's hilarious that I totally match the chairs. 
The idea is to wear things that people wouldn't think to wear, or would be afraid that they 'couldn't pull off'...we're proving that you CAN wear mixed prints, loud tights, a necklace charm shaped like a sneaker, and polyester shirts with attached neck bows.  Just not all together, and always with a good dose of neutral, black, or similar colors.  Check out our Facebook page if you get a chance, we are hoping to get on Good Morning America (or at least our local news) and start the 'Wacky Wednesday' movement all across the country! 

ps - Wacky cofounder Jean (my adorably petite friend that makes me look like a giant in these pictures) has declared that for the week of my wedding, the theme will be: 'Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed and Blue Eyeliner.'  The club office can't even handle us right now!!
