Man, it feels like so long since my last outfit post! Don’t lie…you’ve missed me. I know it. I really have been wearing clothes this week, I’ve just been taking some time off to relax on my Christmas vacation. But I thought I’d take a moment to show you what I wore on my travel day Monday. A long chambray and leggings is nothing crazy, but it was great for the plane and infinitely better looking than a velour sweatsuit.

The most exciting part of this outfit was the SHOES! I am a big Tory Burch fan, so when Megan of Chic for a Week offered to let me try a free rental, I obviously couldn’t refuse. If you’re familiar with Bag, Borrow or Steal or Rent the Runway, Chic for a Week is the same idea but for shoes! They have a small but growing selection of great designer shoes that you can wear for a week at a fraction of the cost of buying retail. My shoes arrived very quickly and came with a return UPS label already printed out (which is awesome, because shipping things is the worst). To learn more about Chic for a Week, see the FAQ page on their website. It’s a great idea if you have a special occasion coming up!

Here’s me posing in front of the tree in the lobby at Indianapolis International Airport on Christmas Eve before our flight.

…And here I am having a little holiday cocktail on our layover. What can I say? I’m festive.

  1. Hi Sarah! So glad to have stumbled upon your blog. Love the polka dot chambray, and those ballet flats are super cute! Hope you are enjoying the holidays!

  2. I love the easy airport look! I just could not rent shoes. It would remind me of bowling alley. Plus, you never know about other people’s feet! They are great flats though!

  3. Sarah- I LOVE your blog! Just wondering where you found those adorable black leggings with the zippers above the feet. So cute!

    Thanks! ~Kat

    P.S. Thanks for writing about real clothes on a real person with a REAL budget! I’m sick of seeing clothing blogs that have a ridiculous and unattainable budget. Thanks for keeping it real and inspiring others that it is possible to do the same!
