April 20-27, 2015
This has been a typical crazy April week with everything from sun to snow and in between. I have 24 more days of school, but who's counting?
Lilly Pulitzer for Target
When I got on the internet this morning, the whole world was buzzing about Lilly Pulitzer for Target. I remembered that I was a little enamored of the button-up (even though it's not really a type 4 clothing item). So, I ran over to the local Target at 8:30 AM and grabbed some items. I got two things for me and two things for the DD. I don't know if she will like them or not, so they may be going back.
Update: The shift dress below looked absolutely adorable on the DD. I guess I'll keep everything except maybe the pants.
Next Update: Yes, I was one of the evil people who listed Lilly for Target on eBay. I sold the size large Nosey Posie Shirt for $55 dollars and the Boom Boom Palazzo Pants for $50. With taxes, PayPal's cut, eBay's cut, and shipping, that put my total for the three items I kept at about $12 each. I'm a happy camper.
I got this shirt in two sizes. I normally wear a medium, but I thought I might need a large. I didn't. This shirt isn't quite this bright in real life.
I also picked up these palazzo pants. I'm not sure I'll keep them--what in the world would I wear with them or wear them to? Hmmm....
I picked up these two possibly for the DD.

April 13 - 19, 2015
What can I say? It's been an incredibly busy week. I was very relieved to get the CUWP book group on Thursday done with -- it's a bit of a scheduling nightmare.
April 6 - 13, 2015
This was Spring Break week, so not much was happening. I had great plans to get a few things done, but some of those went by the wayside. (We spent most of our Saturday fixing our washing machine -- it's things like that that end up getting our attention sometimes.) Everything here is very kick back, which was fine with me.
March 30 - April 5, 2015
Did I actually get dressed up for General Conference? Of course not. But, if I was that industrious, this would have been a fun outfit to try out. I kept things pretty casual this week. Spring Break is here, hurrah!!
March 23 - 29, 2015
The weather has been so absolutely beautiful this week that I've really been drawn to florals and fun colors. Only one more week until Spring Break!
March 16 - 22, 2015
Oh the joy of that first day to go without tights! It's been such incredibly nice weather lately -- 70 degrees every day. This outfit felt wonderfully springy, and yes, my iPad just fit in my bag. Another favorite outfit of the week was the red orange jeans with the whale tippi -- plus I loved the vintage fish prints I put on the Polyvore.
Funny note of the week: when my neighbors came to visit one of them said, "Did you know you are famous?" Apparently, she has been following my blog for a while and told the ladies in her carpool about it. Anyway, when my neighbor picked them up on Friday, one of them said, "Guess what! I'm taking a class and guess who is in it? Denée from What Denée Wore Today." Ah, fame.

As a teacher here in Utah, my only hope of a raise with our stingy legislature is a lane change. I got one last year, and I am working to get one again this year. I have been taking lots and lots of extra classes -- I dare say that I am getting worn out. Anyway, this was about all I could work myself up for as far as dressing goes. It's getting so warm here that I may start going without tights soon.

March 2-8, 2015
I think I may have overscheduled a bit for this week as I had two three hour night classes, two days of 7:00 AM to 7:00 PM school with student led conferences, and an 8:00AM to 4:00 PM class on Saturday. I actually feel physically ill after sitting all day on Saturday (not enough padding on my bum anymore to do that!) That may be why my dressing got more and more casual as the week wore on. With DST starting tomorrow plus a full day of professional development including a presentation, I'll be taking a break from church today to rest up and recuperate. As far as outfits go, I am truly in love with the Indy Plaid skirt I got for $21.99, and I wore ponte pants with secret elastic waistbands for the last two days of the week - that shows how lazy I am.
