Hi Everyone!
Happy New Year!!! I’m really looking forward to an exciting year in 2012. I’m not really a resolutions person because I create daily goals; however, I do have 2 goals for 2012. First, I am determined to finish my tenure book. Secondly, I am determined to be a better wife. What are your goals for 2012?
Now for an upcoming OOTD: I was super excited to get a new camera yesterday thanks to my amazing husband! I am really looking forward to clearer OOTD pictures and fitting room reviews. Here are a few pictures of the J. Crew Hacking Jacket in Tipped Double-Serge Wool in Pearl Grey paired with the Boy Shirt in Stripe Crepe de Chine in Navy:
I’ve wanted to recreate this outfit since seeing Marissa Webb wearing it in the following image:
What do you think of this outfit? Do tell!
Thanks for stopping by! I really appreciate you being here!
Happy 2012! How exciting to get a new camera–I'm looking forward to your fitting room reviews! I really like this outfit! You can't go wrong with stripes and I think the pearl grey color of this jacket is beautiful. I think the pearl grey color would also look nice paired with yellow.
Love it! Very chic!
The jacket looks great on you! It's definitely a keeper. Happy New Year! 🙂

I loved that blazer/shirt combo she wore as well and it was on my list of items to buy – but there was too much on the list, lol, and I never got these! They look great on you!!! And I love your new camera SO much better!
Absolutely adorable!! Absolutely chic!!!!Happy New Year!!
Suzy: I hear you! I have SO much on my wishlist. Thanks so much !! And, you're right, our new camera is much better!!!Denise: Thank you SO much!!! Happy New Year to you too!Thanks for being here ladies!
Happy New Year, Rynetta!I love the jacket on you. Maybe adjust the collar on the shirt so it's more open at the neck, as Marissa has it? Although I realize maybe you just snapped this quickly. Please share your tips as you aim to be a better wife. I see a blog series in this…? *hint hint*
Gigi!! Happy New Year to you too!! Thanks SO much for your comments about the jacket. I really like it too. And, you're super right about the shirt. I typically wear a perfect fit tank underneath my shirts to prevent gaping. I was so excited about taking pictures with my new camera that I forgot to put the tank on, LOL! As my husband was snapping the picture, he said, "ummm, babe, your shirt is gaping." So, I pulled the shirt up a bit. You have great eyes!I'd be delighted to share my tips as I work on being a better wife! My husband is SO wonderful to me. I just want to be the best wife possible. More soon on that!Thanks for being here!!!
