Bowling Shirt

Studio D bowling style shirt

This week is a bowling shirt - it is nice and flowy and has some serious button up fun. I got this find from my mother's closet, and I don't think she liked that I said it was ugly.

As always, I wore this with a nursing bra, jeans, and dressed it down. But I don't think this thing can be dressed up.The only 'problem' is that it leaves the

Month of Plaid Part 2

Tan! And a different place in my apartment.

That's right! The month of plaid is officially over. I wore six different plaid shirts, and above is the tan and below are the last one.

It's blue!

The things I like about the plaid shirts is the convenience. It is one piece, big pattern, draws a lot of attention and makes me look like a lumberjack. The only downside is that it is hard to dress up or wear any jewelry with. Good for casual nursing, but not for anything special. But let's face it, in my own house all I do is wear tank tops anyway, so having real clothes on is a huge step.

Boy am I glad to be over with the plaid. I can now branch out and finally wear something different.

Month of Plaid - February Part 1

Yes, it's true. I own an obscene amount of ugly plaid shirts. But the reason I like them so much is the button up factor. It's way easier than pulling up a shirt or pulling down a shirt for me. It doesn't get bunched up and Z can't play with it as much. But I'm enjoying my month of plaid.

I went shopping in my father's closet a few weeks back, and this was part of the result.

So there are the two red ones, and the last one for this installment is...(drumroll please)

Green! Z at 11 weeks too. :)

I guess another issue I want to bring up is feeding in public. In Michigan, women who are breastfeeding are exempt from nudity laws. And here are a few links for bringing up pumping at work and the state breastfeeding laws that are on your side! If you are feeling like you are not treated equally at work for pumping or any other reason related to being a nursing mom, check how to file for workplace discrimination out.

Flower Print - January

Over winter break I played a game at Kohl's called 'find the ugliest shirt ever.' This was the result. It is a horrible print shirt, and I enjoy it immensely.

Before picture - My hair isn't brushed, and I look like hell

And this is it from the back...with more epicly bad hair.

Finished product. Much better right?

For this shirt I decided to go with a black cardigan again - but rather than the skin-tight longsleeved one, this is more flowy. It definitely breaks up all the crazy pattern, and I actually got a compliment from my friend Kim on it. I forgot to mention my project at my group, so no new authors yet. Hopefully someone will jump on board!

Kal Martin : Goals for TUSP and January Submission

This is my place to put up my goals for TUSP. I plan on nursing my daughter until she is a year old, which is until about December 2012, and I would like to post up a new shirt every month. That's a total of twelve outfits, and to do it for less than $5 a shirt.

That being said, here is my first post for January 2012.

January 2012
Kal and Zelda (7 weeks)

I ended up wearing this with a black cardigan and dark jeans, so it wasn't that bad. But for a first, I think its's pretty ugly.

From the back - as you can see it is completely sheer.

How about that ruffle down the front? Nursing can be sexy!

Well, I have to say, this is all for now. January personal challenge completed!
