Fruits Week Day 5: Kiwi

When I wore this, mother nature had decided to give us a break from the oppressive, lethargy-inducing heat and make the day cold and windy. It was nice to get to wear a sweater again for one day, but I don't want to make a habit of it this summer.

Brown velvet shoes=kiwi skin!

Hat: Old Navy

Sweater: Thrifted

Shirt: Daddy but then D.I.Y.

Belt: Daddy

Boyfriend Jeans: Not Daddy. Aeropostale

Shoes: Betsey Johnson

I always said I'd never do boyfriend jeans, but here I am. Can you blame me if I paid for them with change? Coins! I thought I'd try them at that price but I must say, they are not a man-approved item by any means. Speaking of, in Feng Shui, wearing a green hat means that you've been cuckolded. I decided to buy it anyway because it's linen and I have an all consuming passion for linen in the summer even though it wrinkles like crazy. Plus, there's no one to cuckold me so the universe and I are good for now.

That's all,

Fruits Week Day 3: Grape

Apparently I have no smiles for you today. Perhaps it's because it's about one million degrees and you're going to be seeing me with this permanent curly mophead all summer long. Even with a flat iron and my Elnet shield... this is what I get in this humidity. Did I mention how it's one million degrees?

Belt: Joe

Necklace and watch: Etsy

Everything else: Old Navy

Perhaps I'm stricken because I keep meaning to take the drawstring out of this blasted shirt and right here it looks like some sort of strange crotch-bow? :P I know I keep trying to stay out of Old Navy, but really, these shoes and shirt were two dollars each and my linen shorts were ten so that's how I justify it. Very grape-y!

That's all,

White Out

My son saw me wearing this and laughed, then he pointed at me and yelled at his friends on the playground, "Ha! Look at my mom!" He failed to elaborate as to why I looked so funny, but in my opinion it was the shoes. This is my first time wearing an oxford with anything other than pants, coupled with my first time wearing all white. I thought these were the only pair of white shoes I own which is why I grabbed them this morning, but right now I'm sitting here looking at my shoe rack and can see at least three others. I'll have to try this whole white-thing again sometime, it was shocking to me that I didn't end up getting splattered with mud, food, or something child-related.

Skirt: Old Navy, $1.99

Linen Jacket: Old Navy, $2o

Tank: Calvin Klein, $10

Socks: Mommed

Shoes: Jeffrey Campbell

Usually when people show their legs for the first time, they apologise for their whiteness. I'm just going to ignore it for now, this is only the second day of the season that it's been warm enough to show our stems. They'll be back to brown soon enough.

That's all,

Twills

XOXO
