#JesseCoulter - No. 2

Here's another round of #JesseCoulter outfit posts from Instagram. Lots of selfies going on here people....I apologize, but you do what you have to do to get that outfit photo ; ). 
 
**Attention!** It would be a crime if I don't tell you about my favorite jeans. The Mid-Rise Super Skinny Rockstar Jeans from Old Navy are AMAZING! They are skinny in the calf so they tuck easily in to boots. They are stretchy yet firm so they hold everything in. I love where they hit on my waistline which is right at my belly button, and the spandex makes them extremely comfortable. I could wear them all day, every day. The best part....they are affordable! Their regular price is $34.95, but Old Navy runs a sale constantly (today they are 25% off, so they would only cost you a little over $26).
 
True Story: I was raving about these jeans to my co-workers, and told them they must grab a pair. Some replied I was skinny, and they didn't think the jeans would look good on them. I told them not to worry, and to try them out. Sure enough, a week later we were all wearing the same jeans!

Sensible Swap

I originally wanted this Jcrew shirt, but $60 wasn't in my budget.  I went by Jcrew to try it on for size just to see, and I found this chambray shirt on sale for $20. Great success (in Borat accent)! I'm trying my hardest to not by anything new before our trip to San Francisco, that way I can save $ to buy something unique from a cute boutique in San Fran. Well, I also can't shop because our A/C went out,  we're in mid bathroom remodel, and Alex's car is having issues. Praying nothing else goes wrong in the next month.

Introducing

Me...taking pictures of myself in front of a mirror. Yeah, haven't gotten around to taking any legitimate outfit pics, so these will have to do.

Sad but true story - Last Saturday Alex and I went on a "date", which involved P. Terry's for dinner and a trip to Academy. Alex threw on his normal get up, and I proceeded to have a dance party by myself in the bathroom where I got all dolled up. I put on a dress, heels and even straightened my hair. I walked in to the living room, and Alex just started laughing. I guess I was a bit overdressed, but geez I needed to get out of the boring jeans I had been wearing all week. Another reason, I don't fit in to any of my clothes except a few dresses. I've had to buy 2 pairs of jeans to get me through this stage till I can lose the baby weight.

Traveling

Is it only Tuesday? I feel like my weeks have been going by extremely slow lately.  This past weekend Alex and I traveled to Dallas to visit family and friends.  One thing I love and hate about traveling is the food, we always seem to indulge in crappy fast-food. I'm a sucker for Taco Bell, which brings back college memories of $1 double decker tacos.  I did discover a new fast-food favorite, 89 cent Cheesy Nachos (they taste exactly like concession stand nachos). Let's just say I had to detox once I got home.


We met up at North Park w/our best buds, Sierra & Grant

My Father-in-Law gave me this AMAZING vintage purse he got from an estate sale!


I get a little crazy when I enter World Market. I miss Europe, but it's nice to know I can get a Kinder Bueno whenever I want.


New light weight sweater from Gap I bought for $20, originally $60.  Love me a deal and peach stripes.


Perfect Fit

When I tried on Jcrew's traditional peacoat, I instantly fell in love.  I waited and waited for it to go on sale, and by the time the price got cut in half they were of course out of my size and color I wanted.  I kept waiting for a winter coat to pop out at me that wasn't crazy expensive, and one day at Nordstrom's I stumbled upon this bad boy.  It was only $50 and is the perfect fit/style I was looking for. Although, I've only worn it a couple of times, since the weather has been so mild in Texas. Believe me, I'm not complaining. I hate the cold! I'm sure I'll regret saying that when it's 110 degrees this summer.

Tonight the wedding festivities officially begin for my brother's wedding! We've rented a karaoke room at the Highball to celebrate my future sis-in-law,and I've already mentally chosen my song. It's always a toss up between Spice Girls, George Straight/Garth Brooks, and Prince.

Primary

Tear, tear. I took these pictures of Hope a couple of weeks ago when I still lived in Abilene, and I miss the daily inspiration Hope gives me when it comes to styling.   I'm in love with this bold/primary color outfit, and her over-the-knee boots pull every outfit together. 

 Happy Friday! Alex and I are off to north texas to visit family for a late Christmas celebration.
