Fashion Friday: Edition the day after my day off

I know.

I didn’t post anything yesterday. Not even a random list of things like I usually do when I can’t think of anything to write about. I’m still not sure what happened. I was sitting on the couch with P lamenting over my lack of creativity and all of a sudden I decided I was tired and going to bed.

It’s like I don’t even know who I am.

But I’m back with fashion and isn’t that what really matters? Everyone is entitled to play hooky every once in a while. In fact, I let Caroline play hooky last Monday. She was thrilled until P told her that sometimes the police will come pick up kids that skip school. I believe the phrase he used was “cuff ’em and stuff ’em”.

She was a little concerned, so I explained that police are only worried about kids that skip school all the time and get into mischief. Then that night we were all watching T.V. P was flipping through the channels and came upon some segment on the local news that showed a man lying on the ground handcuffed and said, “Looks like he got caught skipping school”.

And I laughed until I cried.

But none of that has anything to do with fashion.

1. split neck gauze top

I went to lunch with my sister, Amy, the other day and she had on this top. Except hers was a navy print. Whatever. It was super cute and I knew I had to have one. It’s lightweight and just the right length.

2. daniel rainn floral blouse

This is so pretty. Love it with the white jeans.

3. chevron stripe maxi skirt

I just love this. And it’s a great price.

4. lucky in love lace dress

If you are in need of a white lace dress then look no further. This is gorgeous.

5. embroidered mexicali tanks

I bought one of these the other day because I walked in Old Navy and they were on sale for $8.00. That’s hard to beat. And they come in a bunch of great colors.

6. strapless striped maxi dress

This would be a great cover-up or dress to throw on at the beach or at the pool or at the lake. Basically, it makes me feel like I need to put on sunscreen and be near a body of water.

7. lacey lucy tank

8. judith march floral maxi dress

I saw this in a shorter version that wasn’t going to work for me unless I found a DeLorean and Michael J. Fox and some plutonium and traveled back in time. But I love it in this maxi version. Very pretty.

9. jarmila tunic

This is pretty. Perfect with white jeans.

10. shawl-collar v-neck

I have the long-sleeve version of this shirt and, I kid you not, I wear it every night and every morning. I didn’t intend for it to become a pajama top, but it is so comfortable and sometimes things just don’t work out like you plan.

But this would be a great casual top to throw on all summer with or without your pajamas. I like that it’s loose and flowy, yet still a t-shirt type thing.

That’s it for today.

Y’all have a great Friday.

And don’t skip school.
