A Friday Necessity

Sometimes, after a ridiculously stressful and long week, all a girl wants is a mani-pedi...and some time in the fancy massage chair. And then maybe an iced latte. And a nice dinner out...

Sometimes it's just absolutely necessary.

I have to admit that as our weather has turned warmer over the past few weeks, I have seen far too many women forget about the sheerness of their clothing. I'm talking about major see-through issues... to the point where I'm embarrassed for them. So when I pulled out this oldie-but-goodie t-shirt dress, rest assured I remembered to add a slip!

Wearing a slip is such an easy fix for sheer dresses and skirts. Now, if I could only find the perfect non-sheer white pants...

Dress: Gap

Wedges: Loft

So Here I Am

I have pictures to post, and not a thing to say. I'm just brain-dead. I thought about discussing my distaste for linen and its constant wrinkles, but then I realized that I didn't have much to say other than that I shouldn't buy linen anymore.

And then I thought that perhaps I should discuss my recent recommendation for tenure.. but I'm not sure how I feel about tenure in general and don't feel up for any serious discussions about my job.

So here I am. Wrinkled in linen. Exhausted from a long week, avoiding the gym, and seriously considering some take-out for dinner. Weekend, come quick.

Blouse & Blazer: H&M

Pants & Ring: Loft

Sandals & Sunglasses: Loft Outlet

Everybody Everywear: Nautical

I'm not sure if this is the most nautical outfit I could have pulled together, but I wasn't willing to wear anything other than this dress today. It's comfortable and easy, and definitely a good way to avoid tearing apart your closet on a busy Tuesday morning.

My love of red/white/blue combos and stripes is clearly out of control. If you're interested, check out a few more nautical-inspired outfits here, here, here, here and here!
