WIWW

I used to occasionally post in outfit link ups.  Not because I think I am terribly stylish, or that anyone should be interested in my outfits.   Participating in these posts makes me think about my outfit and try to do something a little more creative than simply throwing on a solid colored top and a pair of black trousers which is what I would be inclined to do. 

This link up is for the trend "stripes".  I have lots of things that are striped, but I couldn't resist picking up this shirt when I was shopping at the GAP outlet over the weekend.  Since I have put on so much weight (kind of the opposite of what you are supposed to be doing as you approach your wedding) I bought the shirt one size bigger than usual.   Now, looking at this pictures, I wish I wouldn't have.  It looks a little maternity-esque and that is never a look anyone goes for.

I busted out some blue fishnets to add a little interest.  My school is pretty liberal with the business casual dresscode, but I have never seen a teacher wear fishnets before.  I thought I pulled them off though.
