Today is a super exciting day here at ANNIE AND M. Today is The Messy Project reveal day!
The Messy Project is the brainchild of Kelly, a super sweet & cute fashion blogger at Messy Dirty Hair. I stumbled upon her blog earlier this year and fell in love with her Messy Project idea. So I bravely asked for a spot to participate and was lucky enough to land one for this month!

Let me say right now that I do not consider myself to be any sort of fashionista. My typical outfit is jeans and a t-shirt topped with a cardigan and ballet-style flats for shoes. Not fancy. Participating in The Messy Project gave me the opportunity to step out of my shell. I really needed to do this. Sometimes I need to be brave and do things that are out of the ordinary just so I know I can. Doing something different is good for my soul. How about you? Are you brave when it comes to fashion?
My Messy Project pants arrived in the mail a couple of weeks ago
and I got right to work putting together a comfy, yet cut outfit. Things
are starting to cool off (slightly) here in Virginia so I created a look that
is perfect for Fall weather. The pants I was given to style an outfit
around are super comfy. They come with a pair of shorts to hide your
undies, but were still a bit too sheer for my taste so I wore a pair of
footless black tights underneath to make them a bit more modest. And you
can hardly tell I'm wearing them! Big mamas like me can wear size XL from
the junior section so I grabbed this cute sweater and paired it with an aqua
infinity scarf and matching braided sandals. I threw on a bright pink
t-shirt under the sweater that I already had on hand for a bright pop of color.
And I borrowed the bracelets and purse from my daughters, who were super
thrilled to be adding something little to complete my outfit.
