My Style Inspiration...

day5a

Have you guys ever seen The Office? I practically watch it every night and I guess somehow Angela's wardrobe must've inspired me to pick up this blouse at the thriftstore. It's high neck, buttons up the back, and lace scream Pioneer girl, (which is how The Office typically describes Angela's style) and I couldn't help but laugh at myself when I thought this. Especially when I remembered a quote from Angela mentioning that she usually gets her clothing ideas from her American Girl dolls.

Anyways, I sometimes wonder what makes us choose a certain piece of clothing. Does inspiration just come to us subliminally? I definitley didn't intend to dress as super conservative Angela, but somehow I realized the resemblance shortly after watching an episode where she was wearing a very similar blouse. It's weird. I sometimes do that after I see other bloggers. In fact, I didn't start tucking my blouse into my skirts, until I starting clicking through Jessica Schroeder's pictures on Lucky Style Spotter. One day I just did it, and found out how much better my waist looked!

And side note---My pictures are especially horrendous these last couple of days, because my stupid battery charger hasn't been charging my camera battery very well. Zach and I walked about 1/2 a mile to take these pics only to realize the camera was still dead. So these were taken with his 3 megapixel phone camera. Just thought you all would like to know:)
