Yes. It’s true. Our air-conditioning is out. On the bright side, it’s only the unit that cools our bedroom. Yet on the downside, we like to sleep in our bedrooms. And on another downside, the repairman had to order a part and told us our circuit board is dead. I’ll be honest, that doesn’t sound cheap.
But I don’t want to let my personal A/C tragedy interfere with fashion.
Also, I have to tell you two things that happened today that made me believe I might have some sort of sixth sense.
First, I tweeted yesterday morning that Gap can’t even make clothes that look good on the models on their website anymore. And that doesn’t bode well for those of us who are normal. Then I read just a little while ago that Gap is closing a third of their stores nationwide.
This comes as no surprise to me. I want to like Gap, I really do. Plaid walking shorts from Gap were a staple of my college wardrobe along with their side zip black skinny pants. But I can’t remember the last time I bought something there for myself. Dear Gap, where did it all go wrong?
Secondly, I was dropping off a shirt at the drycleaners’ and was standing in line behind a man wearing a t-shirt that read, “I DRESS MYSELF”. I didn’t need the shirt to tell me that was the case because the fact he had on knee-high white socks with shorts told the whole story.
Now for a few things I’ve found that you may or may not have some interest in knowing about.
1. raking leaves striped asymmetrical cardigan
I’m sure someday I’ll regret all the striped items I’ve accumulated in my closet over the last six months.
This is really cute, but it doesn’t really go with my life. I rarely wear dresses anymore because I just don’t. But if I were still working I’d totally buy this dress.
3. brandee ruffle knit cardigan
Love that this could just go on over a white t-shirt and some jeans.
I’m always on the lookout for great pieces to layer under jackets or sweaters or just to wear on their own.
5. tulle highlands wool peacoat
I love a great camel-colored coat. So versatile.
6. bb dakota zeke striped brown coat
This has potential. I love the thought of it with skinny jeans and boots.
Pretty scarf.
Love this top.
I thought this was really pretty.
Now I love this. Great with leggings or skinny jeans or tights with boots.
That’s it for today.
Hope y’all have a great Friday.
