since when did the weekends become less about relaxing + more about catching up on life?
when friday at 4:00PM rolls around, I’m in a mad dash to attack a list I’ve been building throughout the work week. but the tasks are so much more fun. they typically consist of exploring the city I call home [des moines, IA], spending time with my husband, and designing + shooting photographs for this blog my happy place. but in order to tackle said list, I need an outfit that is dinner + hard work appropriate. for me, this outfit accomplishes just that. it’s colorful + fun, yet comfortable + practical. [speaking of the blog, stay tuned. big things are happening behind the scenes. cannot wait to unveil].
what I’m wearing ..
blue plaid flannel: old navy.
dark denim: the loft.
yellow cross-body: phillip lim x target. old. [similar here].
ankle boots: LC lauren conrad x kohls.
lip color: sugar plum by NYC.
nail color: red my lips by sally hansen
Blue looks so good on you! And I must say that I love your outfit posts because they are “real” clothes that everyone can afford and wear :)
becky – thank you!! that is such a sweet compliment!! I love a good deal :)
loving the navy with the yellow purse, great outfit. Also aren’t those sort of weekends the best, perfect combination of city exploring, hubby time and our happy place planning :)
