What I Wore | Girl Crush

WhatIWore: It seems like today might be the last day to go bare legged for a while, so here I am, rocking a short skirt! The temp went up quickly and I really didn’t need my jacket past my morning commute (which is all of 3 minutes to a nearby coffee shop). I was browsing Pinterst to get ideas on what to wear and saw a lot of cute camel and ivory combos, which sparked this idea (see another way I’ve worn it here). I don’t want to be a grump and complain about it being in the 70s in November, but I have a lot more sweaters and hats I’d like to bundle up with! Call me crazy, but I also wouldn’t mind a snow day soon (gasp! shock!)

This bag was a gift to myself after I had Felix last year, but I haven’t carried it nearly enough! How do I know? I found a size one diaper inside this morning. *tear* These babies grow up too fast! 

What I Wore | Gamine

WhatIWore: Happy Tuesday everyone! I’m just getting back into the swing of things after a weekend in Nashville (photos to come!) In a bit of a sleep deprived haze I had no idea what to wear this morning until I came back to my inspiration board from last week (and a pile of freshly washed striped tees). French chic = easy chic, so that’s a simple win for me.

If you’re in the midst of a heat wave like me you probably also feel sick of this hot weather and ready to break out your fall clothes. I just don’t want to wear summer stuff for that much longer. The good thing about pieces like a little black skirt and striped tee is that they work just as well for fall as they do warmer weather so I don’t feel too out of season. I know that’s a little convoluted, but whatever. Labor Day may have come and gone, but techinically it’s still summer!

What I Wore | Summer Strolling

WhatIWore: Phew! It’s a scorcher here today! Last night before I fell asleep I thought of this outfit. Don’t you love it when you wake up and know exactly what you’re going to wear the next day? I rarely do, so it was nice to be up and ready to go in 15 minutes today! 

Can I point your attention to my black skirt? I mentioned it yesterday as part of my core closet and today I’m maximizing a piece you might not expect - a dress worn as a top! The silhouette of the full skirt really balances me out on top (an area I’m always a little self conscious of these days) and the neutral palette lets my new yellow bag get all the attention!
