Well this has been a week.
It all started last week with my tooth pain. And then P went to the dermatologist and had a bunch of stuff cut off. And now Caroline has strep. For the second time in a month.
So now I’m not sure I’ll make it to Houston before Saturday. Which is fine because there’s nowhere I’d rather be than with my sick baby.
I also thought that I was going to write more about Spring trends today but realized that I don’t really like any of the other trends and they are all vague and use terms like “Preppy Casual” and “Safari Chic” and I just want to keep it simple and tell y’all that orange is really, really in this season.
And that’s why I’m leaving the trends with what I posted last week. Here are a few cute things I found earlier today before I picked Caroline up from school because she was sick and my whole day turned out differently than I’d planned.
See? Orange. Or coral. Whatever.
I like this dress. It’s cute, seems to be a little longer than most of these tops that are masquerading as dresses these days, and the crochet sleeves give it a little something special.
I love this necklace. Bright and colorful. It would make even a white t-shirt feel pretty.
I don’t think this would look good on me because I can’t really do that high neckline without things looking awkward. But I love the yellow and gray and I’m sure it would be darling on somebody paired with some cute yellow sandals.
Umm. Coral. Orange. Whatever? Do you sense a trend?
I love the lace on this. And the forgiving shape. I’m not sure about the length, but it could totally work with leggings or skinny jeans.
If you decide to board the colored skinny jeans trend, then I am a fan of these from American Eagle Outfitters. They’re a good price, comfortable and fit well.
Sadly, they are out of a lot of sizes online but you might have luck finding your size in the stores.
This is a little fall-ish for this time of year. But I think it would look darling with skinny jeans or leggings and boots. And it’s on sale.
To borrow a phrase from Janet Jackson, Gap hasn’t done much for me lately. But I went in there the other day and tried on this shirt dress and, LO AND BEHOLD, it’s really cute.
I’d wear the white one with all turquoise accessories.
But I also love it in the royal blue color with all silver or gold.
That’s all I have today because I am off to medicate Caroline with antibiotics and to medicate myself with chocolate chip cookies.
And maybe a glass of wine.
Y’all have a good Friday.
