If it’s still warm where you are, this is just an idea of what to wear tomorrow. But, add some pom-poms and this is also a guide to being a 50s cheerleader for Halloween. (I did not wear this as a costume…I was just born in the wrong era and gravitate toward retro styles.)

Speaking of 50s costumes, if you don’t get queasy at bloody stuff, I highly recommend watching Ratched on Netflix – the fashion is to die for (pun intended…the bodies really pile up).

About a million years ago, a French blogger that I follow wore a brown polo-style shirt, and I though it so unexpectedly chic so I made a mental note to get myself a brown polo. It was very much an “I saw Cadie Herron wearing army pants and flip flops” moment.

Most polo-style shirts have logos on them, which is not my jam, but I finally finally found what I was looking for. And then…

It had been so long since I stumbled upon that chocolat-clad Parisienne, I couldn’t remember what the hell I thought was so great about a brown polo. A brown polo, you guys. I’m basically twinning with the UPS driver that delivered the damn shirt to me. BUT, I’m trying to be less wasteful, so I’m going to do my very best to get good use out of this thing. Here is attempt #1. More styling ideas are welcome.
