Monochrome Mullet

{ON sweater (similar) & shorts | payless shoes (total lookalike) | dogeared necklace | kohls sunnies (similar) | gifted lucky brand rings}

This outfit is like a backwards mullet: long up top and short on the bottom.  Incidentally, it's also a bit like an aging mullet: grey roots ombre-ing gracefully into white.  And yeah, I just used the words graceful and mullet in the same sentence.  Who am I?

The White Stuff

Lately the weather seems to be having an identity crisis.  One day it's chilly and rainy, the next it's warm and humid.  Friday was the latter.  Not one to miss an opportunity to bust out some white after Labor Day (proof of previous transgressions here & here), I shimmied into my shorts, threw on my new denim top that's already been worn more times than it's even been washed, put on my new favorite pair of shoes, and headed out to a crowded bar where not one of my friends noticed a single thing I was wearing.  But that's ok because I got away with wearing shorts in October.  Forget wearing white until Labor Day; I wear white until Columbus Day!


btw, I linked up here today.

...likes to travel

Right now I'm currently in a car, road tripping down to Hilton Head Island, SC for a week of relaxing, biking, hiking, and chilling on the beach.  Since it's a 14 hour trip (each way), I want to make sure to stay comfy, but since we're stopping in D.C. along the way, I also want to look presentable for our forefathers.  And, you know, for all the living people there, too.  Comfortable clothes and flats are essential, and although it'll be 90 degrees, I'm prepared to bundle up since someone (looking at you, boyfriend) prefers arctic temperatures inside the car.

While I'm gone, I've asked some friends to show us all what they'd wear on a road trip.  I hope you enjoy.  See next week!

Labor Day Rules

People say that you shouldn't wear white after Labor Day (I don't know anyone who actually says that, but rumor has it there are people who do).  But how about wearing white on Labor Day?  No one ever remembers to make a rule about that.  Well, I made my own rule yesterday, and it not only included wearing white, but it mandated print mixing, silver worn simultaneously with gold, and donning a crazy scarf, too.  Just you watch, this new rule will catch on in no time.
