Outfits of the Week: June 22-28
Monday June 22
Tank dress - Target
Yellow belt - vintage
Yellow flats - Rothy’s
White denim jacket - Pilcro
It was a hot and humid day, so a comfortable maxi dress was a good choice. I was encouraged to have a black and yellow theme because my son wanted me to match his Batman tee, and I’m always happy to oblige when he wants to coordinate.
Tuesday June 23
Terrazzo blouse - Target
White pants - Wayf
Beige sandals - Franco Sarto
I had the idea for wearing these pieces together recently. I decided to try it today because I didn’t have plans to go out, so if it didn’t work out, I wouldn’t be stuck in it. I think it looks light and airy. The overall blouse-iness works because there’s still waist definition. I tied the blouse because I couldn’t tuck it in (the pants are too sheer for that) and I didn’t want it loose.
Wednesday June 24
White crop tee - Target
Plaid maxi skirt - vintage
White sneaks - Keds
This skirt was my mother’s, but has been in my closet for at least 12 years, if not closer to 15. I folded the waistband over to make it a bit shorter, since I wanted to wear sneaks today. This outfit is a good example of a formula I’ve been wearing lately: white top (usually tee or cami) + white Keds + patterned bottom. I’m not sure when I would’ve noticed if I didn’t document my outfits.
Thursday June 25
Shirt dress - Maeve
Red sandals - J. Crew
Wrap belt - Ada Collection
The shirt dress is one of my favorite styled because it’s so easy for it to be great. This one has great colors. I love the way this belt tones with the greens in the dress. Ordinarily, I like to do a bright lip with it as well, but as I had errands today, a mask was the accessory of the day.
Friday June 26
Black wrap crop - amuse society
Sarong skirt - vintage
Black sandals - Franco Sarto
I went with something light for a very warm day! This skirt can be worn a few different ways, but this is my go-to. I did the print and the fabric is very comfortable. I forgot how much I like these sandals! (Also, I got a haircut!)
Maxi dress - grade & gather
Black sandals - Franco Sarto
Belt - Old Navy (circa 2003!)
I changed for dinner plans because why not? This dress is one of my favorite purchases from last summer. I hadn’t worn this specific belt this way before, but it worked quite well. The necklace is another divestment from my mother.
Saturday June 27
Cream blouse - gift from a friend
Pink jeans - Old Navy
Gold floral sneaks - Keds
Floral rain slicker - Target
This outfit was a bit warm for a hot day, but I can’t really help myself once I get an idea in my head. I like that the outfit without the jacket is light and fairly neutral, then the jacket really pops.
Sunday June 28
Cropped blouse - H&M
Orange tulip skirt - Target
Beige sandals - Franco Sarto
Sometimes I get dressed quickly because I’m not sure what to wear and I don’t have any inklings to lead me in a direction, and then I wear something that I’m not totally comfortable in. Which is funny because this outfit is completely comfortable. I don’t regret it, and I don’t know what I wish I’d worn instead, but something else might’ve felt better.
