Trench: Forever 21 ($20)
Dress: J.Crew
Belt: Thrifted ($1 old)
Necklace: Madewell ($15 sale)
I have to admit, I'm not in the best mood today. Monday is rearing it's ugly head, so I'm holding off until tomorrow to post about our trip to Portland, ME last week (and until I feel less pessimistic). I got called into work this afternoon, and sometimes I just have a really hard time adjusting when the direction of my day suddenly changes. Does that ever happen to you?
Anyway, how was your weekend? Mine was extremely productive. This is the outfit I wore on Friday, on the first sunny day we've had in about two weeks. I admit that it was a little cool to not be wearing anything covering my legs, but I was at work for most of the morning, so I was plenty warm. When this dress came in the store last week, I immediately scooped it up. Good thing too, because it sold out in a day, it's that cute. I added a belt to dress it up a little, and a gold necklace to tie in the gold belt. I know I've said it before, but the Casita sandals are the best shoes. They're perfect for work because they're dressed up but I can stand in them comfortably for hours.
Hope your monday is better than mine! Blargh.

Mondays are so gross. I hope you have a better day!!
i love this dress--in fact, i just saw it yesterday and added it to my cart but somehow it seems excessive to have three striped dresses...still, it looks so incredible on you, i may have to cave anyway!
i know how you feel about mondays...blergh indeed
How does the dress look so nice on you and so extremely boring on the j crew website? They should hire you as their model, look at the difference:

Ugh!! I just tried to leave you a comment and Blogger swallowed it. Twice. Today sucks.
Anyway, that was the gist of my comment: solidarity, sister. And courage!
P.S. thank you for always being real, that quality is why I faithfully read your blog. I wish us both a better tomorrow.
