HAPPY SUNDAY, everyone! In case you hadn’t heard, Sundays Fundays are pretty much my favorite. Last Sunday was my birthday, so everyone had to subscribe to my idea of a Sunday Funday, whether they liked it or not (but I think they did). We had a boozy brunch, then ran around the zoo for a couple hours. I put sunscreen on everyone because this birthday queen wants everyone to stay pale and melanoma-free.

The combo of alcohol and sun wiped me out, so I went home and took a nap. (This is life at 32, apparently.) I woke up and decided I wanted pizza but didn’t want to get out of bed. So we ordered in and I ate my pesto pie in bed while watching Netflix. It was absolutely perfect. Not that I’m in a rush to turn another year older, but it wasn’t so bad doing exactly what I wanted for a whole day.

^Take note. This might be the first time I’ve actually pulled off the effortless, nonchalant look. It will most likely never happen again.^

When I wore this, someone said “I like your jacket! Or is it a shirt?” Well, it doesn’t have buttons, snaps, or zippers of any kind, so I’m going to call it a jacket. Call me old fashioned, but I generally prefer my shirts to close in the front.

Also, yes, I’m aware this is the third outfit in a row I’ve posted featuring a white tee shirt. Apparently I’ve just now figured out what everyone else already knew.
