What I Wear :: Day 1

Welcome to Day 1 of What I Wear here on Busy Nothings...well, not what I wear here on Busy Nothings, but rather, here, on Busy Nothings, I'll be showing you what I am wearing. Clarification is always good, especially on a Monday morning when not enough coffee has been poured in the system. So...welcome! It's my first ever "fashion week" and I'm not even sure what I'm going to be able to share with you - but for some reason I'm still quite excited about it!

It's Monday morning and I'm starting out with my fall "uniform" to follow up on my summer "uniform" of choice (also seen in the button). I feel like I need to apologize ahead of time for the pictures - let's just say it was a short night and I am not quite awake yet! You should also know that the hubby and I are currently in the process of starting an electrical contracting business (ZIP Contracting, LLC), which means that at night I'm either sitting in a camp chair with a book in dusty situations OR pulling wires/stripping wires/attaching recepticals with Peter. Basically, I'm not dressing "nice" these days because I don't want to have to change before we leave when he gets home from his day job.

Okay, enough excuses...here's what I'm wearing today, for better or for worse.

Khaki pants: L.L.Bean (clearance!) Brown long-sleeved t-shirt: L.L.Bean last yearBurnt orange zip-up Sonoma life + style: Kohl's Do you work in a situation that causes you to get dirty? How do you balance doing your job while still liking what you're wearing? Personally, I like this outfit because I'm comfortable (and because I'm back in smaller pants again - sweet!), and because I love the colors of fall (burnt orange and brown - like what I'm wearing). I hope you'll join up with me this week and see if we can all learn to think outside the "what I normally wear" box.

Next week I'll be linking up to blog your Fall Fashion over at Emery's blog - I was just a week ahead in my idea (who knew?)...so I'll be including this button in each post in preparation for next week. Thanks for the heads up Charlotte and Molly! And speaking of Molly - she'll be answering a few questiongs and giving some of her fashion thoughts right here on Wednesday!
