February Tights Challenge Week #4 - Final Link Up

I have to admit you guys...this was the HARDEST challenge I've ever done.  It was about a week & a half that I thought "ummmm...I'd really like to wear the rest of my wardrobe!" I just have so many ideas about clothes that it's hard to decide to wear tights everyday.

I also didn't think about how many skirts/dresses I had to be able to wear tights.  I'd end up recycling dresses & skirts...and I didn't like that I could wear so much more.  I caved two times but then I incorporated leggings like so many did in the flickr group.

I do want to thank everyone who added to the group, you all were so awesome!  This is the most interesting photo from the group:

I also apologize for the lack of my own pictures being added.  I will definitely think harder about challenges in the future.  

Alright so everyone link up your tights!

Sum Up Sundays: Tights Challenge Week #3

I have to admit guys.....this challenge has been hard for me.  So hard, that on Wednesday I took a break & wore jeans.  I had to, I couldn't stand being careful not to pick them, feeling like a sausage (all constrained), & dealing with them falling down a bit every time I walked.

This is hard! But I love my tights! I have worn nearly every one of them so far.  So I think I am going to start to incorporate leggings into mine as well as I've seen some of you all in the flickr group do.

Woweee....I didn't think it would be this hard!  But it is a challenge! We've got a week & a few days to go...I know we can do it. I know I can do it!

I do also have to say that I won't be wearing tights (or hose) at the ball (I am going to call it a ball, alright?) on next Saturday.  Because I loooove my legs & want to show them off!

Alright, here's a highlight from this week:

I love this floral dress.  I pretty much wore these red tights all week.  I think I wore them about 3 times!

Let's link up!

Lemme see those tights!

I want to give a shout out to Christina for adding to the flickr group this week! Hooray!!  I am so glad she's using this challenge as a test of her comfort zone....She is looking fab!

Now here's me for the week:

Tuesday through Friday:

& Saturday night:

I was a bit ill on Friday & Saturday but I had a birthday party to go to so I figured why not.

I was invited to coffee & a stroll downtown but at that point on Saturday I was still feeling horrible.

Let's see those tights!

Hey there February, Where'd You Come From?

I can't believe it's February & I can't believe its already Wednesday of this week.  I need more time in my life!

February brings some changes to Five Sixteenths including sponsoring some blogs I love!  This month I am sponsoring 4 blogs & hope to continue doing so in the future.  I thought this would be the next logical step in blogging: supporting blogs I visit the most!




Vintage Wanna Bee a cute little blog with DIY's & totally inspired by friendship! Nichelle is the sweetest!

Love Elycia run by Elycia who's sharing her wedding plans, day to day life, & inspiring photos.

Garden of Eden Designs run by Victoria is a blog that makes me week at the knees! A peak into her fashion merchandising studies keeps me inspired.




Last but not least is LDC Designs.  A super duper blog doing giveaways too! Check out what she's been crocheting & enter the giveaway from Punk Projects!


Phew, February better not slip by, I've got a lot to do!

Don't forget about the Tights Challenge!  Happy Wednesday!
