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.

Last month, we celebrated our 9th wedding anniversary. As you other long-term relationship folks know, after awhile you have to make a little effort to keep things fresh and exciting. So this year we wore sexy disguises and role-played that there was a worldwide plague that we had to protect each other from at all costs.
