yes, the mop is getting long, too long at the moment. come thursday new life will be breathed into it. but it was time for a style change even if growing hair out can be a pain in the patoot! at the moment i’d like to chop it all off.
on a happier note, the sun was out and the temps perfect. so perfect it was time to trot out a pair of sandals. boy-oh-boy do i love block heels. they’re as comfy as wedges and a perfect partner with skirts. even though today’s ootd color scheme is less than springy, it’s classic and chic and works any time of year. i’m loving the skirt’s ruffled edge that gives it a little sass! a safari shirt lends a casual air to this nine-to-five look as do the block heel sandals. accessories are kept to a minimum for the sake of simplicity.
i guess you’d say this ootd is in the books.

I’ve been following your blog for a month or so and am surprised that even though I may read it the day it’s posted, the majority of the pieces in your outfits only have links to “similar” items. As a fashion blogger, I’m sure you are frequently shopping (you make reference to this in your blog, but usually regarding shopping sponsors), so it’s hard to understand the missing details about your ensembles.
