This is only the second time I’ve taken my new chambray top out in the world. The chambray’s debut became one of my most popular posts, so that put a lot of pressure on me for take two. This is also the second go-around for my new bubble necklace. When I blogged the first bubble necklace outfit, I asked for input on how to style it next. I think the floral print dress got the most votes, so naturally I completely ignored the feedback and wore whatever I damn well felt like.

Not really…I do value your opinions, dear readers. It’s just that on Saturday, I had to go to Law Review Orientation (a.k.a The Over-Achievers Convention). It was a day spent listening to various speakers, eating pizza, and learning how to edit scholarly legal articles. Basically a bunch of smart people sitting around and soaking up each other’s awesomeness. Not exactly a sundress-worthy occasion. But I promise I will wear the dress/necklace combo sometime this summer.

Hope everyone has a great week! (I know I will, because I’m leaving for Chicago on Thursday!)

If there’s one thing I can say about Indianapolis, it’s that there’s no lack of beer and wine festivals here. I have no problem with this. This weekend I went to the annual Indy Wine Opener. I had a pretty good time, although I could have had more if I weren’t still on painkillers and limited to chewing teaspoons of food with my front teeth. Oh well, I’ll just wait 2 months until the next corporate-sponsored alcoholic extravaganza. And the good news is that I got to wear my new striped dress ($20 at TJ Maxx – pretty sweet, huh?!).

I also think this dress will be great in the fall with tights and boots, maybe a chunky sweater. I’m getting really excited…fall is probably my favorite season for dressing. And even better, I can wear this dress during basketball season when I’m cheering on my Hoosiers!
