Presto, Change-O!

I had a pretty crazy day yesterday: I filled in at the Thursday WW meeting again, and I filled in at another meeting in another area of town a few hours after the first one ended.

I topped off my evening by drinking a bottle of wine! Huzzah!

This is what I wore to the first meeting:
The blouse and skirt are both new, from the Plum close-out sale. I am kicking myself for not buying the skirt in chocolate brown as well as this rich charcoal grey - it was gone when I went back to check yesterday.

The blouse was $20 on sale (regular $69), and I love the shape of it, especially the collar/neckline. I did have to add the cami because it was rather cleavage-y. It was made in Canada.
The skirt is a nice thick double-knit poly-blend, again, made in Canada. It was $25, regular $75. It's got a high waist and no slit, which I was a little worried about for walking, but the stretchiness of it made it awesome. How much do I love pencil skirts? Well, duh.

Unfortunately, that shirt's collar did not lay flat and stay nice for the morning meeting - it drove me absolutely NUTS by shifting around and not laying flat. I was so annoyed by it that it's going straight into the consignment bag. Bah! It's gotta go!

I changed into my other white shirt for the evening meeting:
Same cami underneath, and added L's cufflinks (previously worn here). I liked this a whole lot more, comfort-wise.

Before I get to the stuff, I want to give a shout-out to my dear friend Cat. I got to weigh her in yesterday, and be the first to see her back at her goal weight (and no longer paying!). She started WW a month after I did, so we've sort of been doing it together for all these years (just over 4 years). Cat, I am so damned proud of you. You are an amazing woman!

The stuff:
My glorious Fluevog "Listen Up" Audrey shoes. My reds aren't matching in this outfit (the cami is a deep raspberry shade), but whatever, close enough! I love this Smoking Lily obi.

A (blurry) close-up:
I like the mix of gold with grey to really make it pop.

Oh, and at Terri's request, here's my WW nametag:
I'm real!
