We Can Do It

Full disclosure: I did not eat at the Garage Food Hall, but I was walking by while accidentally dressed like a fancy mechanic, and it was too great an opportunity to pass up.

I don’t have any plans for Halloween, but looking at these photos, I realize all I need is a red bandana and I’m ready to be Rosie the Riveter! Honestly I may do that, if only to channel that Rosie energy into my life (couldn’t hurt).

When: August 20, 2021 // Weather: hot // Real life: date night (greasy Mexican!)

Well this might be a first for me: an outfit inspired by a book! OK, so I don’t remember for sure what book it was, but it was definitely historical fiction, so probably The Winemaker’s Wife or The Alice Network. Anyway, a character was described as wearing a red dress or skirt, a white shirt tied at the waist, and red shoes. And I thought to myself, “that sounds like something I would wear!”

So I did.
