This is an outfit I’ll wear to church, to lunch with friends, or to a school event for the kids. Unfortunately they’re sold out, but I like this pair a lot or maybe even more. When I wear a neutral outfit with a pop of color, I like to repeat the color somewhere else if I have a piece that works, and in this case, these earrings were perfect. I wore red earrings to coordinate with my shoes. The only thing I don’t love about it is the curved hemline, but I did a front-tuck and it works out just fine. It’s well worth the price - especially this sale price! The material feels luxe, the fit is fantastic, and the extra details dress it up a bit. This top is a good example of a higher quality tee. In yesterday’s newsletter, I talked about what makes one piece of clothing higher quality than another less expensive option. Plus the rivets on the sleeves are a fun detail. The neckline is perfect too - low and wide enough to be flattering, but not enough to cause modesty issues. It’s thin enough that you don’t need to wear a tank underneath, but it’s super soft and comfortable. I love the fit of this top, the way it skims the body without clinging, and the jersey material is a really nice quality. It makes such a nice closet basic for spring and summer because you can layer it under a cardigan or denim jacket, but it’s also special enough to stand alone. ![]() This top is from White House Black Market, and it’s on sale for over 50% off. I was also afraid they wouldn’t be comfortable, or I’d have a hard time walking in them, so I was thrilled to discover how comfortable they are.įor today’s post, I wore my red espadrille wedges with black jeans and a black and white striped top. I’ve already worn them several times, and I’ve only had them for a couple weeks. I was afraid I wouldn’t find anything to wear them with, but happily, I couldn’t have been more wrong. The vast majority of shoes in my closet are shades of neutrals, so I decided these shoes needed to be a fun color. I decided to go big or go home, and I ordered the red ones. The only question in my mind was, red or black? Or gold? I love all three. You can only imagine my delight when I discovered these throwback canvas espadrille wedges selling in J.Crew stores this season! I was too young to want a pair for myself, but I always admired the on her.įunny thing - I ended up going to college for elementary education and teaching third grade for several years before I “retired” to be at home with my kids. I thought they were so sophisticated and lovely. What I remember most distinctly is that she had those 80s canvas espadrille wedge pumps that she wore several days a week. ![]() And she was always dressed impeccably in the preppy styles that were in vogue at the time. I couldn’t wait to get to school each morning and see how she was wearing it that day. She had shoulder-length brown hair that she would either wear in a low ponytail or with the top and sides pulled back into a bow. But it was my third grade teacher who I remember most clearly - not because she was a fantastic teacher, although maybe she was… but what I remember is how pretty she was and how she always dressed so stylishly. I played school from the time I was in preschool all the way into middle school it was my favorite childhood pastime. Everyone probably has one teacher that they remember more clearly than the rest - one they idolized a bit, perhaps? Or someone that made an impact on them in some way.
