Easter part deux

We celebrated Easter again yesterday with the Pants Monkey's family.  It was a nice afternoon, we ate a ton of food and I'm pretty much good on ham now for the next little while!  I love me some ham, but yeah, I've had enough of it after two big ham dinners in a row!  


It was semi warm, humid and mostly wet yesterday, but I knew that Mr. Monkey's grandmother's house would be very warm, so I dressed appropriately.  I think I kind of look like an Easter egg with the color choices, but I don't mind.  It felt springy and happy.


I was excited on Saturday when I went to the mail and this awesome necklace that I won from Lori's giveaway had arrived.  I kind of planned my Easter outfit around it, not going to lie!


It was also another opportunity to show off my pretty green pedicure and some new sandals.  I received many compliments on the necklace.  I can't wait to wear it again!


Outfit rundown:
Sweater and cami - Arizona Jean Co, JCPenney
Jeans - Old Navy (thrifted)
Necklace - The Minty Koala (won in giveaway)
Bracelets - Stella and Dot, Bead for Life
Sandals - Italian Shoemakers via DSW

So after some wacky weather yesterday complete with severe storms, today we woke up to 30ish degrees and snow flurries.  Oh yes, there were snow flurries.  So, my outfit today is nothing special, it was chosen simply for warmth.  And I had to get creative since I packed away a lot of my winter clothing already!


I know you're all probably surprised I'm not doing two birds' Inspiration Monday - I just couldn't come up with something I liked for today's choice.  I do encourage you to head on over to their blog though and see what other ladies are doing with it today!


Fortunately this return to winter is only supposed to last through today.  Thank goodness for that.  Once you start wearing sandals it's hard to go back to shoes!

Outfit rundown:
T-shirt - Axcess by Claiborne (thrifted)
Sweater - "A" via Herbergers
Pants - Worthington, JCPenney
Necklace - Maurices
Shoes - Sonoma, Kohls

  5. Love the bright colors of that sweater. I think it's Easter appropriate, but pulling out another color will give a different look. Love the new necklace, congrats on winning it.

    Also I am sooo sick of ham right now. I've had it for multiple meals - on a sandwich, heated up, with breakfast, in turnip greens!
