Get Dressed First 08.05.23

August 5, 2023 · In: Fashion, Lovely Living

This week had some odd dynamics for me, namely that most of my family was gone at some point during the week. Timm traveled for work. Norah spent thirteen hours a day at band camp. And Lillian left for church camp. It was just me and Henry-dog for most of the days, which is not a bad way to spend a week.

Here is what I wore this week…

SATURDAY

Lillian calls these my picnic shorts, and I think that is so cute. I own these shorts in this pattern and in the white linen, and they are amazing. Stretchy waist-band, modest length, full leg. I don’t wear shorts very often, so when I find a pair that I like, I feel great.

SUNDAY

I did some more digging into the depths of my closet this week to see how I felt about some older items, including this swishy fire-red skirt from J.Crew circa 2019. It’s a keeper. As is this classic boatneck striped shirt that literally looks cute with everything. I consider it a closet staple.

MONDAY

Linen pants and a gingham top for the win. These pants continue to be one of my favorite recent purchases.

TUESDAY

On Tuesday I decided to clean out my storage units. So I geared up, wore comfortable athletic clothes, and set out only to discover the keys to said storage unit were in the car that Timm took to the airport. I was not made about avoiding this task, but now I am going to have to tackle it next week. Gross.

WEDNESDAY

This breezy dress is so good. After three years in my closet, I still love wearing this piece, and layering it over a white t-shirt is a great alternative.

THURSDAY

I have a lot of jeans in my closet, but lately, these are the ones I gravitate towards the most. They are the J.Crew curvy vintage slim straight. The length looks great with summer shoes, and the curvy cut is my favorite.

FRIDAY

I decided to kick it old school and wear the outfit I literally wore almost every day for years when I was first opening Hurley House. Jeans, white shirt, grey New Balance sneakers. It hits every time and manages to look cute while being super functional and easy to wear.
