good for spinning

tuesday tuesday tuesday
You guys, this skirt is so fun to wear. It makes me feel like spinning. All day, it gives me an extra spring in my step. It's that sort of skirt.

Here's what I do about wearing heels--I've found it's best for me to wear flats for my commute. Once I get to school, I have to walk to the maintenance barn (to pick up a golf cart--sounds weird, I know. It's for my use during the school day), so I wear my flats to get the golf cart and then change into heels in my office. For the commute back home, I change back into flats. I've found not driving in heels really saves my feet. But I LOVE the look of them. So these little accommodations are totally worth it.

Outfit details:
striped top and skirt:  J. Crew
heels:  Clark's
necklace:  Francesca's
bracelet:  Etsy

I'm linking up today for What I Wore Wednesday at The Pleated Poppy.  Click through for more style inspiration.

      Thanks, Denise. I think it is mostly the female students who notice and comment on my style. :)

    Cute. The red heels make it pop. I bought some earrings from Francesca's when I was in Northern San Diego County last Oct. I like their jewelery.

      Hi Molly. I only have to one piece from Francesca's but it's fun for adding a bit of color. Thanks for reading!

    I've meant to comment sooner and thank you for writing this blog. I have struggled with many of the same 40+ fashion dilemmas and appreciate your thoughts. Love the red shoes. I can totally see you twirling in that skirt. :) My 8-year-old son would think I was beyond cool if I had to use a golf cart for work.

      Thanks for commenting, Joyce. Yeah, I'm really interested in exploring what to wear for my age. I think most anything goes, but I never want to look like I'm reaching to much or like I'm trying to dress like my daughter, ya know? I really appreciate you reading!
