Fight the Frump- Let Fussy Be Your Stylist!

Let Fussy Be Your Stylist!

We have learned the important rules of what to wear and seen examples of what not to wear. Now what? How do we put it all together? It's easy. I'll do it for you!

Here is a great example of a great early Spring outfit-

Now, just calm down, I can hear you yelling at me about those pumps. Ok, Ok, you won't wear them. I'll give some other options.

Maybe some cute flats? I found these at Target. Supa-cute and inexpensive!

There ya' go, a perfect Spring outfit. Like I've said before, price is up to you. These (clothing) pieces can be found at Macy's or your local thrift store. It's all up to your budget and your ego.

Love, Fussy

Cute outfit! I would wear similar heels. I'm just not to big on the chunkier heel.

[Mackenzie's Momma]

Mine's up and ready! I did a 'touchy' topic this week- feet. I found out I have to attend a shindig that requires HEELS and was frightened by my own.

Now I must go to bed loved the post Fussy, I LOVE those flats!

[HRH]

Those heels are yummy. I wouldn't wear them everyday, but anyday they were worn would be an instant holiday.

[Tamra]

Shoes totally make the outfit!

I read this post and followed some of the links to other posts and almost choked on my tea from laughing so hard! Some tiny part of my sweats-incased brain started remembering what was drilled into my head as an undergrad at Mt. Union...
1. Thou shalt never where white past Labor Day or until after Easter
2. Thy Pearls go with everything... except thy swimwear
3. 'Tis Better to have 3 classic pieces than 30 crappy pieces
4. Thou shalt not encase thy bod in polyester
5. Thy nails shall be filed lest ye be caught unawares when greeting royalty
6. Ye shall use the "elbow, elbow, wrist, wrist wrist" technique when waving from a pageant stage or political dais

Oh the memories...
Now if I could just motivate myself out of my slippers and sweats motif into something else...

PS: I have three boys, 1, 2, and 4. Hopefully no more on the way but if another shows up, we'll take him too (they're adopted)

So ya really think I need a trench huh? I've been looking at them and looking at them.

Yellow you think? Hmmm.....heading out shopping today, will have to look.

Super cute outfit!! I have a darling camel colored trench with a not obnoxious plaid on it, TARGET baby and I adore it.
Those shoes are precious!! I can't wear heels because of bone issues, but I love those flats. Wish they came in a mini wedge, that would be awesome!!
Fabulous as always my deah.

[Karen]

Great outfit! I'll have to give the jewelry a whirl. And if I lost a few pounds it would probably help draw attention away from the hips.

[Beachmom]

right now, I am watching Tim Gunn and reading you ... and do you want to come over, hang out and bring me back to the land of the living? Awesome outfit ... I would even wear the shoes!!
THANKS

[Mindi]

Mine's up.

And Fussy - I'm eagerly awaiting your Lost review. They are horrible, but they are so horrible that they are great! ;-)

[Dre the Texican]

For the love of Fussy, I just completed my post. OMG it took forever. But since I don't like to complain...
