Thanks to the massive (if you have a really loose definition of “massive”) popularity of the Top 10 Remix challenge, I’ve noticed some new followers this month. So if you’re one of them: hello. Welcome to your new favorite blog 🙂

I also have another kind of new friends: these gray suede pumps. I’ve been wanting some for awhile, and I like how simple and elegant these are. I feel like gray shoes are a nice option for spring and summer when you’re wearing something bright and black shoes just seem too dark and heavy. So hello, new gray pumps, and welcome to your new favorite feet.

Going back to the famous (again, loosely defined) Top 10 remix, this is my second outfit with this striped dress. Before I ended up with this bright coral jacket, I picked a navy one. Then I realized that wasn’t much different than the last way I wore this dress. I guess that’s the fun part about a remix challenge…you think a little harder about how to switch things up, and hopefully the results are worth the effort.

 What possessed me to dress like a pack of Starburst? I don’t know. Maybe the fact that I was going to a fringe theater show, so why not take a little risk. I will never be the weirdest dressed person at a fringe show, even when I look like a walking bowl of sherbet.

If you’re one of my Indianapolis readers, I highly recommend you see The Great Bike Race, which is at Theatre on the Square on Mass Ave. It’s “loosely based” on the second running of the Tour de France. If you don’t laugh at least 20 times, see a doctor immediately. There’s something wrong with you. If you don’t laugh at all, see a mortician. You are dead. Get tickets here. (This post was in no way sponsored by Indy Fringe or by the Great Bike Race, but I should probably mention I know a couple of people in the show. Still, I don’t even like them that much, so my opinion is totally unbiased.)
