pink, unabated

 tank, Gap
skirt, Target
earrings, gift

      Something about having shorter hair makes me reach for my bolder earrings. I had originally planned to wear a necklace instead, but at the last minute decided on statement earrings.  


        I bought this tank for $2.08 in July - I had a $10 rewards that was about to expire. The armholes are a little low and big, so I added a sports bra in lieu of a camisole. I can't wait for it to cool down at work ...  some of my students' families generously donated fans, but even with all the fans going full blast, on a hot day it just means we have a lot of warm steamy air circulating. It can be challenging to put together a heat-ready but professional outfit! I did give in last Wednesday and wear Bermuda shorts with a tee, with a necklace thrown on to make it look a little fancier.
     What are your plans for the weekend? I have the usual lesson planning to do and piles of student papers to look through. However, I am looking forward to a few naps, a glass of wine or two, and some quality time with a novel. I  also hope to hunt down the September Vogue issue!

  5. Jen - the sports bra idea was such a revelation - no more sticky, sweaty camisoles! We have been getting record-breaking heat here, so my sports bras have been indispensable.
