I wore this for breakfast out and then to a local production of the King and I. I've been wanting more basic colors in my closet lately (namely black and white). This shirt when I first found it I fell madly in love. I wore consistently until it turned cold. A few days ago I realize that I needed to pull it out again. With clothes I've fallen into a place where I don't like to get rid of anything, because it can always be re-purposed or maybe you can just fall in love with it all over again without a thing being different.

Happy Fourth of July all!

Let's go for a walk. For many people this would mean wearing pants or otherwise casual clothes. For me it means that I dress like always, which means a skirt or dress. It's funny because once upon a time, I felt so awkward wearing dresses out and about. That seems like forever ago. I've realized that I tend to not really like wearing pants, that sounds a little strange. Because of my body shape, pants tend not to fit right. While when it comes to skirts and dresses, they tend to mend to my figure much easier. 

This dress and skirt, they are both a favorite of mine. I like pieces that have something a little unusual. The straps of this dress and the material match that. The skirt, I love that it has pockets. I've learned that if you're going to make clothes, they have to have pockets. I don't understand why many designers think girls don't want pockets. We don't always want to have to carry a purse.
