Field Wear

Please don't be fooled; I did not spend a day filling my lungs full of bitterly cold fresh air in Matt's both rustic and environmentally appropriate plaid, but rather spent this day filling my grocery cart (and thus, my cabinets) full of much needed/avoided sustenance...only to briefly stop by the park entrance once the sun began to set. Now, I'm not saying that we avoid food around here- that's the opposite of what happens. But we (I) avoid the grocery store like it's my job because, I've decided, my subconscious knows that each time I go, I end up handing over many more shares of my bank account stock than what I'd like. But really, what else is new when you're trying to save money?




Happy Monday, everyone!

Guest Post Recap

These are the photos I shared last week on Marlen's blog for our guest post exchange. In case you didn't make it over there to check it out (shame on you), I thought I'd share them here as well. The challenge was to take a summer item and transition it to fall; I chose my favorite vest. Instead of wearing it solo (with bottoms of course) like I do in the Summer, I layered it over a button-down and a dress worn as a skirt. And as I said in the guest post, I highly encourage everyone to layer their dresses creatively this fall/winter! It's a super easy way to stay warm!

Vest: UO; Shirt: Thrifted; Dress: Asos; Boots: Old Navy (recent)

If you haven't done it yet, head over to Messages on a Napkin to see some of Marlen's layering genius. See y'all tomorrow!
