Morning meeting

Today I had an early meeting. Usually it's boiling in the conference room where we have these meetings, but today it was freezing. Hmm. Lucky thing I had this totally boring cardigan to wear!
(Wow, if this isn't the least interesting post ever...)

Favorite dress: Target
Beige cardigan: Casual Corner (which tells you how old it is; I don't think that chain exists anymore!)
Ivory/gold ballet flats: Aerosoles
Multi-tone pearls: Misaki, a gift (from my husband, who also recommended this tying option. Nice!)
Yellow rubber watch: swag from my husband's old job

Where: Daycamp dropoff, early meeting, work at home.

Yellow (sort of)

It's Yellow Day over at Everybody Everywear today... so I tried to get in at least a little bit of yellow in my outfit. The trouble is, I have very little yellow. Two tank tops, and a scarf. I think that's it. Oh, and a pair of mustard yellow platform clogs. Huh. I'm hoping my watch and the wreath in the background give me some extra-credit points?

Black cropped cardigan: Old Navy
Yellow petal-trim tank: Old Navy
Black stretchy jersey skirt: Old Navy
(Wow... this outfit is seriously brought to you by the words Old and Navy.)
Black-and-white wedge espadrilles: Naturalizer
Small starfish necklace: Target
Yellow rubber watch: swag from my husband's old job

Where: Evening meeting.

Running

Today's outfit is brought to you by "keeping it real." It was a hot, muggy, sticky day, and I had a million errands to do. I wasn't about to dress up! But I tried to look at least somewhat interesting.

Raspberry fly-away tank: Marshalls
White tank: Old Navy
Olive long shorts: Lee
Studded thong sandals: Target
Small starfish necklace: Target
Yellow rubber watch: swag from my husband's old job

Where: Daycamp dropoff, dog groomers, doctor's office, grocery store, meeting, watch shop, daycamp pickup, lunch with my grandmother, work at home, dog groomers again, farmshare pickup.

Purple polka-dots

Saturday evening, I took my little boy to a hot air balloon festival (it was amazing; he was enthralled). Once again, he had strong feelings about what I should wear. "A fancy dress with purple polka-dots, Mama," he said. I didn't have such a thing in my closet. I asked him if this skirt would be close enough - it's pink, and sort of dotty. He didn't think so. But we agreed that I could wear this for now and he'd get me something purple and polka-dotted for my birthday next year.

White v-neck t-shirt: Kohl's
Coral print skirt: Old Navy (I shortened it, and doesn't it look better than last time? Much less frumpy. Although I'd like it better still a little shorter.)
Coral and tan sandals: Bass
Pink and green bead necklace: Baked Beads
Yellow rubber watch: swag from my husband's old job
"Hot air balloon" in the background: my son's new favorite thing EVER

Where: Tacos and a hot-air balloon festival! Awesome evening.
