Black is my fall back. Do you have a fall back? I knew a girl once that only wore white tops. Seriously. Isn't that crazy? Sometimes white cardigans over white t-shirts. It worked for her. It did. And I could surely wear black everyday. In fact I'm pretty sure there was a time when I did. At one point I was trying to "hide" a pregnancy from an employer. Well, not "hide", just not "admit". Black works for that. But in general I don't recommend keeping secrets.
I do, however, recommend the new fun nail polish trend... painting your ring finger a different color than your other nails. As seen above. Then I'm so "type A" that I make my toes match my ring finger.
I know this outfit isn't super summery, but like I said, I'm not feeling very original and also I just FREEZE in air conditioning. The dairy section at the grocery store this time of year is my nemesis. My kids are the same way, you should see us all dash through there as fast as we can.
But the joke was on me this past weekend... I wore this to a birthday party that was NOT air conditioned and that involved a lot of bouncy houses (for the kids... not me!). I was sweltering. Lesson learned. Be afraid, very afraid of air conditioning... but certainly not if it involves bouncy houses.
