I don't normally wear a lot of red. I just don't own a lot of it, but I must look at least a little foxy in it because those high school boys at Menards were sure watching me come down the aisles. I felt pretty good about that on the inside, but of course, was trying to look like I didn't care!
I'm touching up and redecorating my home office, so I have been scouting for shelves, lamps, etc. for the past week.
Here was my best attempt to bring in some red for Tina's "Red Week". I have a quick photo tip for you girls. You'll notice this week's photo is taken from above. If you want to look a little slimmer, just have someone a little taller (or get them up on some stairs above you - like my crazy tall husband did) and take some shots from above. It is slimming and more flattering. ;)
What I Wore While Making My 4th Trip to Menards this Week:
- Red Earrings - Maurices
- Black Necklace - Bergners
- Red Henley Tank - Eddie Bauer
- Black 3/4 Sleeve Button Down - Express
- Belt - Kohls
- Black Pants - AB Studio via Kohls
- Black Ballet Flats - Clarks
- Bracelet - Kohls
I'm reusing the black belt and necklace this week. I guess I don't have a ton of accessories and this just proves the point that if you buy the right pieces, you really can mix and match.

I sadly failed again to take photos of my meals. Sorry, Tina! I'll try harder next time.

Thanks, Stacy! It's been great having you as a guest blogger for April. Since Rand is even taller than your super-tall husband, I'm going to have to have him start taking those high-angled, slimming pics.

Nice outfit, Stacy - you do look great in red!
I am still doing WW (I've been maintaining my goal weight for 2 years), and unless you're not writing down your veggies, it doesn't look like you eat enough fruits/veggies. You need a bigger breakfast and more snacks! I try to eat as much unprocessed food as I can (just had a cup of fruit salad with fat-free plain yoghurt drizzled with honey - 3 pts).
You look great in that outfit and in red, Stacy. So, I'm dying to know how tall the crazy-tall men in your lives are! -Sharon
Sharon - I think that Stacy's husband is 6'4" and Rand is almost 6'6" so they're really tall guys without being freakishly tall.
