I first wore this birthday cake skirt here and have worn it faithfully ever since. I’ve worn it to three weddings, two funerals, to church and to a concert. No other skirt in my closet has received so much love. Today I paired it with a striped Old Navy shirt, a vintage belt I found at Goodwill for $1, and suede Nine West shoes.
After mistakenly wearing my blue shoes two Sundays ago I intentionally decided to nix an obvious shoe choice (black) and select these purple shoes instead. I’ve decided to make sure I wear every item in my closet and use every accessory I own. If I haven’t worn something in two months–I’m going to sell it or donate it. 2012 is the year that Chandra rids her closet of the one too manys. I hadn’t worn these purple shoes in SEVERAL months; I did NOT want to sell them or donate them, so I placed on my feet and stomped out the house.
Other happenings:
*Did you read Melinda’s blog post about surrendering some? Here’s a line from it that’s been with me since Friday: “What is it that you are not willing to do for God? You will not receive His full blessing until you surrender fully.” Please be sure to read her post and visit her blog.
*I listed new items in the MoMoMod store; I also figured out how to fix shipping! Now items ship by weight and heavier items will ship for $11 in a priority flat rate shipping box. Other items will ship first class or parcel post. Use code MoMo20 at checkout to receive 20% off your entire order.
Here are a few new things:
Hi Shandra, I need to do the same, get rid of anything I do not wear in my winter closet. I have a whole other wardrobe in storage. We get COLD winters when we cannot wear summer clothes. But, there is no need to keep anything that I do not wear. I have put myself on a spending freeze. Then I saw that adorable Mossimo Cropped Coat and... and I love it!I'll think on it.
Hi, Cindy! I hear you! It makes no sense to keep things in your closet that you do not wear. Since I'm ridding myself of all the extras, I'm also reminding myself NOT to spend things I do not need! Sleep on that coat... ;O) it'll be waiting for you!

Chandra, we would have kinda-sorta matched today, I wore kelly green and black today! My post will be up tomorrow :) love your outfit!
I saw your outfit! I pinned it!
You look beautiful! I love that skirt! I am not a big fan of maxi skirts on myself just because I feel I don't have the body(curves) to pul them off but I'd love to have one like yours. =)
Shey, I've always thought that maxi skirts make me look a lil' too frumpy/dumpy, but I've embraced them in more recent months and I love wearing them! I've round that if they are straighter (and not flared) they work better for my body type! If you go to daintyjewells.com she has a similar skirt for sale!
