How Do You Dress on Saturdays?
I have had several readers ask me, “How do you dress on Saturdays”? I usually dress pretty casually on Saturday. I don’t go into to work on Saturday, so it is more a errand and catch-up day. I want to be dressed nice enough that I can run to the grocery store or answer the door should someone come see us.
I have on just a plain basic white t-shirt. This is a woman’s fitted shirt, so it fits closer to my body. I prefer a close-fitting shirt, as long as it is not tight, because it makes you look thinner. I used to think that a baggier shirt would hide my lumps and bumps and make me look smaller. But in reality, I just looked wider because of the shirt.
This bright aqua blue zip sweater hoodie is ages old. I bought it years ago in three different colors. I liked it that much. It is super soft like cashmere, but it’s not. I bought them from Old Navy, but I like this one from Eddie Bauer.
This is what I look like most days. If you come to the lumber company, you will see me sitting at my desk with a pair of reading glasses on. I am near-sighted, but I wear contacts to help me see in the distance. After I hit 43, I started noticing that I couldn’t see up close. The kicker is, if I take out my contacts, I can see great up-close. Of course, then I can’t see far off. Either way I end up having to wear a pair of glasses.
How do you like my footwear choice? This is one of about 4 different pair of house shoes I wear on a regular basis. This pair I bought last year at the craft fair I organize, and they are from Vera Bradley. They are soft, warm, and cute. A trifecta!
I think I am zipper challenged. I have my camera set on a timer to take my picture. It will take 5 shots at a time, then I go and set it again to take 5 more. Usually that is all I take, and then head off to work. Today it took me so long to zip the hoodie, I had several shots that looked like this. Haha I had to set it for another 5 shots. Lol!
Finally, mission accomplished! Don’t I look proud of myself. Haha No jewelry, very little makeup, and no purse, that’s how I roll on Saturday. The first thing I do when I come home in the afternoons is yank off my jewelry. Then I usually go and take off my bra, but I spared you that look. Was that TMI? So, this is me on Saturday, how do you dress?

Actually this is one of my favorite looks on you. You look fresh and dare I say…sexy. Go casual girl!!
Wow! Thanks Marsha!!! I think the color of the hoodie is what is so appealing.????
I’m new to your blog. I found one of your post on Pinterest and I love your style! I have a question for you, which you may have covered in the past….and I haven’t had time to look at previous post…but thought I would ask. What products do you use in your hair or do you have pretty thick hair? I like the cut, but my hair has gotten thinner as I’ve aged and I’m not sure I could pull it off. Thanks!
Rhonda, I am so glad that you have found my blog, and I hope you come again. I don’t use any products in my hair, other than shampoo and conditioner. I have really thick hair, and my stylist usually has to thin it every time she gives me a cut. You can try root boosters or salt spray on the roots. Products like that help with the lift, without making your hair feel brittle and stiff. I hope to hear more from you in the future. ????
If the reading glasses annoy you, maybe you can try what I do. My contacts prescription is for one eye distant and one eye close up. Not everyone can get used to this but I like it better than having to put on glasses whenever I need to read or do close work. Always love your looks, thanks!
DeeDee, I have tried having one contact in and one out. I do that when one contact is bothering me and I don’t want to wear glasses. I usually end up looking pretty comical trying to hold something at just the right spot in order to see. Hahaha
Gosh, another thing we have in common. ..our vision issues. I see perfectly up close without the contacts. When I am not wearing my contacts, I wear my glasses, which are invisiline bifocals. Sometimes the bottom “reader” part of the lenses isn’t enough, so I will put on a pair of readers with my glasses…now don’t you know that’s a sight, a crazy woman wearing 2 pairs of glasses?
I tried bifocal contacts, but I didn’t like them. They let you see somewhat in the distance, and somewhat up close, but not really good either way.
Adorable as ever. Like that you show things from stores that most women can afford to shop at. Love your perky attitude and fun style. Living in Florida I wear alot more casual type clothing but that doesn’t mean you still can’t have fun and be stylish (no frumpy style here). Have a great day.
Thanks Michele. You might have to give ME pointers this summer on how to wear shorts. I am already dreading the coming months.
You look cute and comfortable. The house shoes are perfect!!
Please, tell me where you get your womens fitted t-shirt. I love your blog!! It’s so relatable and your clothes are affordable. Stay safe in the storm.
Ann, my t-shirt is from Old Navy and it is a size M. I only tell you the size because I normally choose a L or XL in clothing. They must run larger, so you would need to try on one. Mine is really old, in fact if you look close enough you can see a tiny little hole in the front. I guess it is time for me to make a trip to Old Navy. Haha
Love this house slippers. They are certainly a must this time of the year when floors are cold. Have a great Saturday… hope you are as socked in with snow as we are. LOL Just kidding, but it sure is lovely outside!
Love the look and the detail on where you got everything. The clothes that anyone can afford, I love Old Navy. Love the hair style and make up not to much.
You look cute & casual – love your hair!
