I loved this skirt so much for work (outfit here), that I couldn't help but wear it for the weekend too!
Officially adding this skirt to my list of FAVORITES - along with this most perfect striped shirt (seriously, this is stripe perfection), lived in denim jacket, & classic chucks.

never ever have I ever

{ What I Wore: H&M cap // J.Crew Factory sweater & skirt // Converse sneakers // (way way old) Victoria's Secret crossbody purse }

This past Saturday I woke up with the sun (ok, 8 but that is EARLY for me on a weekend!), slapped a hat on my un-showered hair & headed out for adventures errands.

I found this adorable library & then I did something I never thought I would do...

I planted myself squarely in front of these stately columns & took pictures with me, myself & my tripod out in plain sight of all those crazy people running at such a unheard of hour.... stop. the. presses.

What have you done on your never thought I would ever list lately?

Dear Mother Nature, 

I get it, it's still Summer. If the 90 degree days didn't fill me in, the 100% humidity sure did. Sorry for all those posts about Fall booties, sweatshirts & layers... Apparently I have pissed you off.

Please cool down soon... is there a furry rodent that can help me estimate when this might occur? I'm pretty sure the pugs predicted Fall would come early... that counts for something, riiiight!?

Until then I will wear my skimpiest clothes in efforts to not sweat to death, but proudly sport my new wool hat inside my air conditioned home. Sorry, I'm NOT sorry!

P.S. It's the last full day to enter to win a stunning Stella&Dot statement necklace {here} (you might recognize this top from that post too!)
