Happy Sunday, everyone! I thought I’d take a couple minutes out of my very busy-being-unbusy day to share this outfit from the last work week.

This was one of those days when the outfit I had planned out the night before just wasn’t what I thought it would be once I put it on. So I started from scratch, threw a bunch of pink things together, and got this. I actually really like wearing this, so all’s well that ends well, I guess. It’s kind of like when a couple isn’t trying to have a baby but they get pregnant anyway and they’re happy because it’s the miracle of life or whatever. Except I don’t have to clean up this outfit’s poop or pay for it to go to college, so this is more the commitment level I’m comfortable with.

Enjoy the last few hours of your weekend!

Floral Blazer and “Bankle” Jeans

I know you guys have been losing sleep over this, so good news: I purchased 2 more things from my Spring Wish List! Unlike other bloggers who just make wish lists so you’ll  click on their affiliate links for commission, when I share my shopping list, it’s actually my shopping list. (OK, I use affiliate links too, but a girl’s gotta eat. And by “eat” I mean “buy more shoes.”)

Now I can put a virtual check mark next to floral blazer and distressed skinny jeans. To show my excitement about my great achievement, I wore them both together to see a community theater show (Follies – it’s like musical old people porn).

Anyway, these jeans are designer (Joe’s Jeans – amazingly comfy) and normally run around $170, but I found them at Nordstrom Rack for $80. The problem: they were about a million inches too long, and they were more straight leg than skinny.

I took them to my tailor to have them hemmed and tapered, and $16 later, here they are! They sort of have a relaxed boyfriend fit at the top, then turn into skinny ankle jeans at the bottom. What should we call them? Bankles? Anklefriends? I’ll keep working on it…

Have a great week, everyone!
