olive and navy


Calvin Klein Jeans tee, Macy's
cardigan, Forever 21
bracelet, 'Iolani Palace

    I like this shirt and its glittery front, but olive has always been a slightly puzzling neutral. Like gray, I admire it on other folks, but am still figuring out how to style it to my liking.  I had a sartorial "duh" moment when I paired it with my favorite, navy blue. This is my favorite way to wear this top so far.

     
Favorite moments of this week 
  •  chatting with one of my students about her experiences reading "The Little House on the Prairie" series. This was a series I reread continuously through childhood, so I was thrilled to hear that today's kids can still connect with the series. And talking about books with kids is on my list of Ultimate Favorite Things in general.
  • learning a lot through two fantastic days of training (in air-conditioned comfort, no less). 
  • finishing Abraham Verghese's novel "Cutting for Stone," which was beautifully written.
Happy weekend! :)
