WIW for the week: high joy challenge

Here we go another week of joyful dressing. This week it got so much easier, wearing one high joy piece often has me reaching for a 2nd or 3rd outfit

1. High joy skirt had me reach for a high joy sweater i have not worn in 2 years

2. 4th day of presenting outfit. Mostly wore without the topper. A beautiful blue silk topper. Was so happy i said I don't care and presented in my birks

3. Started with the top then added pants and silver shoes - 3 high joy pieces. Shoes are super comfy why am I saving them. Withstood a day of presenting

4. I adore this top - havent worn in 3 years because i love it so much. Wore to church. Ignore the water stain i had to do a spot clean. It dried perfectly

5. Pink topper was the starting piece. Another outfit for presenting

6. Friday - i lived through 4 days of presenting outfit. Not sure these jeans are the most flattering but I love them.

7. Sunday church outfit. All about the earring. This poor black topper hasn't been worn in over two years.

8. Saturday when i wasn't in grubbies for cleaning. Same jeans on repeated. With my new chucks.

This week i managed no pieces that have been moved on. I had a dress picked and I realized i don't like that dress so it was culled before wearing.

As always thanks for any feedback and comments.

Soooo fab! All are great, but I especially love #4 and #7!

Absolutely great, I love 2 and the top in 4, as well as the jacket in 5. And I love the silver bootees in 3. You've had a good week!

Your joy shows in the photos. These are wonderful outfits. My favorite is 5. The jacket color is beautiful on you. Snazzy shoes too.

Lots of good stuff - I love #2!

I'm borderline obsessed with the skirt in #1 :).

I agree with Joy, number 5 is my favorite, the jacket color looks beautiful on you.

You had a great week. My faves are 2, 4 and 5. I hope the floral blazer is a high joy piece too!

Brooklyn something super funny about the floral blazer i tried it on as a joke when shopping with a friend. Joke was on me I fell hard for it and it is a wardrobe workhorse in spring, summer and early fall. I'll wear it through September then it is stored until next spring.

Barabaradiane - the skirt in 1 is one I'm also obsessed with. It is a great print and I wear it four seasons. I actually think it is more stunning with black tights and ankle boots.

Thanks everyone else

All of these are fantastic. And the earrings in #7 are super cool!

Love #2 and #7 because you can never go wrong with a black fitted blazer.

I love this challenge! These are all great outfits, but more importantly your smile shows how you feel about them. You are so inspiring.

Love 1 & 2 esp. And the velvety hoodie!

I'm not sure I've made time to comment at every post on this series, but I SO love what you're doing with it. What could be better than " high joy"?
Your comment about #4 made me laugh "haven't worn in 3 years because I love it so much".
I do think that yellow top is my fave of this set, thoughI like them all!

Elle

Great outfits. My favorites are #2 and #5 - love pink on you.

I absolutely love this challenge! I'm away from home for the week but am definitely going to to take it on myself when I get back. In fact, I can't think why "high joy" dressing isn't a style goal every single day!

Is that a jacket or sweater in the first photo? Either way I love it. Gorgeous color. I also love the floral jacket in photo 2, the silver shoes in 3, and the velvet blush hoodie in 6. Lovely pieces that make for great outfits. But my top favorite is the whole outfit in photo 4. The yellow top is beautiful on you, as is the whole ensemble. I can't wear yellow at all, but it is such a fun, happy color and it looks great on you.

You do look very joyful in these photos/outfits. Success!

The first photo is a jacket

You have some great pieces, no wonder they are high joy. I have read your other posts, but I must be blanking out - do you not normally wear your high joy pieces? Do you normally "save" them and that's why they don't get worn?

The floral blazer in #2 is great. I love the bright top in #4 - both the color and neckline are interesting. Another great piece with the blush jacket in #6. I would probably never take that off - it looks so cozy.
