Day 1: Baseball Tee Dress
In retrospect, looking at these photos, I wish I had worn some sort of belt or something. I wore this dress to run errands all day before I really took at look at myself and how the outfit looked. It’s kind of plain, so I wish I had worn some sort of extra accessory for more color!
Dress: JCrew Factory // Necklace: Chloe + Isabel // Shoes: Sperry
Day 2: Striped Dress under a chambray shirt
Day 2 was another rainy and gross day, but still just warm enough to wear this outfit. Actually, I was freezing most of the day except when I was inside, but that’s beside the point. I loved this outfit and will definitely wear it again or something similar! This bag is my new favorite bag! I bought it to replace the diaper bag with something cuter, and I just love it! It is made with “vegan leather” which I think is just a fancy way to say fake leather, but it super cute and durable and was only $49 at Nordstrom online, plus free shipping!

Day 4: Blue Dress!
I love love this blue dress! It is made of super soft sweatshirt material and is just so comfortable. Day 4 was “take your kids to work day” at my husband’s office so I ended up heading there for lunch and to pick up our son since 2 years olds really can’t handle being in the office all day! This turned out to be a good thing, because day 4 is also the day my husband got super sick and had to leave work early anyway! Some people at his office complimented my outfit, which was nice! I also enjoyed getting to wear my new necklace from Stitch Fix!

Day 5: No photo!
I forgot to take a photo on day 5, and honestly I spent a lot of the day in the house taking care of my sick husband! This photo is from the week before- so imagine this shirt with white pants and thats my day 5 outfit! This shirt is from Target, by the way.
Day 6: Mint Skinnies with a light blue tunic
For day 6 we celebrated my husband’s birthday by hitting up the local car museum he loves. Since he was sick, we didn’t do much else. We did cookout some burgers and had cookie cake for dessert! I think this is my favorite outfit of the whole week. I really love these pants, they are so comfortable! And I think they hit just right on my shoes. This tunic is really soft, too, but I had to add a tank top under because it was a little chilly out and the tunic was letting in the cold wind. Overall this outfit is a win in my book!

So! Overall I think No Jeans Week was a success! It was interesting to dress up a little bit each day. Some of these outfits are ones that I would normally wear to go out on a date night so it was a little weird to me to be wearing a them during the day! I also couldn’t have picked a worse week for this project- It was much colder than I had anticipated, raining almost every day, my basement flooded and my husband was super sick. Not a good combination for a week of wearing different fashion than you’re used to!
It was a good experiment though and I learned that I don’t have to wear jeans every day, even though I am at home! I also learned that most of my shoes are the same color- tan- so maybe I need to work on that a little bit!
If you want to see other pics of my outfits you can check them out on my instagram! I was also joined by a few other people on instagram who posted their No Jeans Week outfits following my hashtag, so that was cool! You can check out those outfits by looking on instagram for the hashtag #nojeansweek
Weigh in! What do you think? Could you do a “no jeans week”? Which outfit above is your favorite?

April 30, 2015 at 5:05 pmI love all of these! I told Bob you were doing this and he asked if I was going to do it and instead of answering him I said, "I think it'd be awesome if you did it!" hehehehehe He wears jeans to work every day!!!
Anyway, it was so cold last week, but all my jeans are dirty except my super skinny pair, so I am doing a quasi-no jeans week of my own 😉 One outfit I have that I like it my black lace a-line skirt (I thin it's from Forever XXI) with a basic tshirt and a waist belt to accent the shirt. I also like to wear that same skirt w/ tank tops in the summer…it's very ballerina looking.
I had completely forgotten about sandals until seeing your pics… I will have to dig mine up out of my shoe container… Adios winter!!! 🙂
My fave outfit is the striped dress w/ chambray top. So simple, yet comfy! You could do a jean jacket w/ it too instead and would be similar but warmer 🙂

April 30, 2015 at 11:31 pmI love this idea of doing a no jeans week, i think i could live without jeans for sure, it is so hard to find the right pair for me. I love the blue dress look & the Mint Skinnies with a light blue tunic the most.
