Hey Besties! I hope everyone is doing well and safe at home. I have week two of my Get Dressed Challenge and I even have two of my girlfriends who are going to join me to show you their stay at home style.
Before I get to this week's Get Dressed Challenge, I want to talk a little bit about the challenge. First and foremost, this is a no pressure zone. The point of this challenge, is for people to feel Good about themselves. I know that a lot of people are feeling anxious during these times and I am one of them. I have found that when I started to go back to a little bit of my morning routine of picking out an outfit and getting dressed, including a little light make up, I felt Better. One of my friends told me last week, she was in this same boat, feeling anxious after watching the news, and when she did the Get Dressed Challenge she said it really helped.
If you want to join us in the Get Dressed Challenge, I think that is awesome. If you are totally cool in your yoga pants and a hoodie, I am Good with that too. Good Better Best is always a place of Joy and I just want to provide people with some ideas to feel Better during this time.
Ok, let's get to the fashion this week. In most cases, what I am wearing are things that I have had in my closet for a while, but I have also provided info on items that you can still purchase now.
Sail to Sable Fleece
This navy and turquoise with jeans outfit that I did last week is a perfect example of the Get Dressed Challenge. On a chillier day, just pick out a fleece you love, or maybe even your kid's school colors and use that as the Get Dressed Challenge. You can keep it casual and still get dressed.
This day, I paired a cozy cardigan from Barefoot Dreams with a dot tee and jeans.
I am living in cargo pants lately and topped it with this super cute Shep Shirt from Vineyard Vines that Running Daddy gave me for my birthday last year.
Speaking of birthdays, I had a really big birthday on Saturday. Even though we were only getting take out from a local sports pub owned by some school friends, I decided to get dressed for dinner.
White Jeans
The blush puff sleeve pullover and the camo scarf are from Stella & Dot and you can purchase them here. The white jeans I had in my closest and they are on repeat this time of year. Rothy's are always my go to flats and I chose the flax birdseye for this outfit.
For my work from home week I added the same Stella & Dot camo scarf with a classic black sweater and olive cargo pants. I felt really Good in this outfit. It was totally effortless and pure comfort. I can tell that this is going to be a go to casual outfit for me for spring and early fall.
It was supposed to rain on and off, so I wanted to wear something really fun. I grabbed a dark grey pair of cargo pants and this Lilly Pulitzer skipper shirt with flamingos that I love. It just gave me a lift.
Speaking of a lift, I was filled with Joy when two of my friends shared their own Get Dressed Challenge photos with me. They were sweet enough to let me share their photos here. How beautiful are they?
Shannon
Shannon is video conference call chic here.
Shannon is ready for happy hour after making it happen all day.
HJ
HJ is all set and ready to make things happen in turquoise and a layered necklace. I love that she added flowers to her work space.
Both ladies, and some others that I heard from privately, told me they felt Better when they got dressed.
I am finding this fun and I am going to try to keep this going as long as we are under stay at home orders. I am happy to add in other ladies that want to share their Get Dressed Challenge outfits reach out to me at Goodbetterbestfood@gmail.com and I will feature you next week.
