First Day Fashion

I never have done a "fashion" shot of myself before because I am usually very critical of the way I look in my photos and my sense of style is nowhere near some of the fabulous ladies out in blogville... I'm talking not even in the same universe. Case in point, Ms. Chloe! Her fashion sense and photog skills are out of this world, run over to her blog right now if you never have visited!

However I did, like ever year, take a first day of school clothing shot this week. It's a tradition and it's fun to look back on them every year. And, may you note that I never wear my bangs back, but of course on this morning they weren't cooperating so back they went. Guess there's a first time for everything.

The breakdown {if you are interested}...

Dress: Kohls
Cardigan: Old Navy
Shoes: Isaac Mizrahi for Target {many years ago}
Handbag: My favorite Spain purchase : )

What can I say, I'm a frugal shopper!

LOL...first day of school pix...I love it. Bangs or no bangs, you look great!

So when I hit the "breakdown" part, I was totally expecting BCBG for some reason. Kohls, Old Navy, and Target??? I was blown away! And the bag is rockin'!

Melissa said...

Kohls is my favorite store, ever! =)

I love the outfit. You are stylish, and that's a fact.

And, I just adore your dining room. Those curtains are making me swoon.

Love the look, J! If I could look this put together for work, my boss would be thrilled! Esp. that purse--to die for.

(I'm trying to bribe Chloe to drive the hour each way to my house so she can be my stylist. Heh!)

Freckles Chick said...

And ooh, is that a new kitchen faucet in the background?

Em said...

I LOVE that dress! You always look cute, Joi!

Suzie said...

Joi, You're so cute!!!

Lynett said...

I don't remember having any hotties teachers like you! Love your outfit!

Lyzz said...

You look really cute, but I gotta say, I love the curtains behind you. So much drama.

Lynsey T said...

Super cute! I love your bag.

I have to ask, where did you get your curtains in the background? I have major window covering issues in my house (we have 13 windows total!) I need something for my sliding glass door and can't find anything I like.

Joi said...

Hey Lynsey!

Thanks for the compliments : )

The curtains are from Pier 1.

That dress is beautiful on you. I love the colors and the print! Cute shoes, too. Kohl's is my favorite too.
