Running Errands

Yesterday, I had big plans to get some errands completed.  Instead, I slept in a little and the Cat and I went to lunch with my sister.  I have been craving Tokyo Steak House for months, but haven't had the time to go there.  I guess I could have gone for dinner, but I like going there for lunch.  What can I say?  I'm cheap.  You get the same amount of food at lunch that you do at dinner and it is way less than half the price.  So we went.  The Cat and I split a plate and even with that we had enough leftovers for us to both finish the rest for dinner.
So anyway, after that, we kind of ran out of steam.  I stayed up way too late Friday night watching Pretty Little Liars on Netflix (I have talked before about how my brain has turned to mush- it is because I watch shows like this).  Needless to say, no errands were accomplished.  So today we will get some things done, including a run to the mall and then an afternoon meandering the local antique stores.  Below is a perfect outfit, in my humble opinion, for doing just that.

Let's Go

Zenggi cotton cardigan, $130 / Mango v neck shirt / Club Monaco / Seychelles flat / ASOS flat shoes / Kelly & Katie straw handbag / Metal jewelry / Kate Spade eyewear
Okay, can we talk, just for a minute, about those shoes?! First let me just say that I would normally not put black with blue in that way (though I am not opposed to doing that!), but I adore those little poodle silhouettes on those loafers. I think they would add interest to the outfit and make it fun for the weekend. Wish me luck that I find some treasures today! I'd also like to take a minute to honor those brave men and women who have given their lives in the name of freedom. How lucky we are to have people willing to make the ultimate sacrifice.

Back to School (Also known as "Vacation is Over," "Go to Bed Before Midnight or You'll Never Want to Wake up," and "Don't Worry, Summer Will Be Here Before You Know It."


Natural Chic by jangold featuring a tibi dress



So, vacation is over. It was a very nice three weeks, and it went by far too quickly. It is time to get back to reality. Lucky for me, I really do love my job, so even though I have loved the time off, I'm looking forward to seeing my kiddos.
I think this outfit combo, taken from Jan Gold over at Polyvore, is the perfect look for going back to work after a bit of time off. The outfit is completely classroom appropriate; it's serious enough but it is also fun. The heels aren't too high and because they are stacked, they would be easy to stand in all day. This outfit compilation was actually posted three years ago, but the look is so timeless and easy that I think it is just as fashionable today. To me, that is when it is worth it to invest in more expensive pieces of clothing--when they are classic and will stand the test of time. After all, if you subscribe to my theory, an item becomes less expensive the more you wear it. Now who could argue with that?!
