I wore this out to my very first at-a-restaurant meal in months! (On a patio…I am still not willing to sit in an enclosed space with strangers just for the sake of not doing my own dishes.) It was pretty risky to wear a white dress when I wasn’t entirely sure if I remembered how to conduct myself in public, but I managed to use a napkin and silverware properly. Still got it.

For me, the hardest part about venturing back into the world — other than the general looming fear of contributing to the demise of humanity — is the shoes. I mean you know I love my shoes. But I haven’t really been wearing shoes most of the time at home, and now I’m realizing how uncomfortable they all are. Like those adorable wedges you see here (Stella McCartney secondhand, thankyouverymuch) – my feet felt like they doubled in size over the course of 2 hours. Quarantine has really softened me, guys.

When: June 5 // Weather: perfect for drinking wine outside // Real life: working from home (then wine-ding down)

Maxi skirts and wine: two things I already enjoyed but for which my love grew ever stronger during quarantine. In June we really hit that sweet spot for enjoying a cold beverage outside as the sun sets and it stays warm but not too hot. I know it won’t last forever, but for now I’m going to keep pretending I’m on vacation for half an hour every day.
