work, work, work

I unfortunately did not have the day off. No long weekend for me:( Oh well. I had a quiet day at work and it went by fairly quickly. I went a great spinning (cycling) class after work and then ate lots of homemade pizza!

Once I got to work this morning and saw this post over at Bella Seattle, I was so excited that I wore this slip today! LC does a great job at showing different options for the Polka Pop slip.

Here is my take:

Cami: J. Crew
Cardigan: Plenty by Tracy Reese via Anthropologie
Dress: Anthropologie
Slip: Anthropologie
Tights: Hue
Shoes: Dansko




This picture of Talus is just too cute not to post:) This was taken today after a nice walk to the library with Ben.

    Thatdamngreendress - I almost passed this slip up! Luckily, I was with a friend and she insisted that I get it. I bought it at the same time I bought this dress and she told me that they would be perfect together. I'm so glad I listened to her!

    Lisa - Thank you! Isn't Talus the sweetest thing? He was very content after his trip to the library:) He loves getting out of the house and interacting with other dogs/people.

    Hi Kristin, I have to say that you & Talus are both cute as can be! I have NEVER seen any intimates at my store.Either I'm blind or they don't carry them. I hear Austin has better selection of clothing.It's about an hours drive from here. But don't have time to just go to get clothing you know? Gas Prices :/ Your outfit looks so pretty. Everything over there looks so green! I LOVE GREEN!! Everything is still dead over here. No signs of Spring yet.Just great weather.

    That is such a cool slip! I think it gives the dress a completely different feeling. Very pretty outfit.

    Gabby - All of the green is one positive thing we get from lots of rain! Both of my local stores sell intimates - you should ask about it next time you go in. Maybe they are hidden away in a corner somewhere.

    Betty Ray - Thank you! Isn't Talus such a sweetie?

    Elizabeth - Thanks:)

    JG - The black version was really pretty too. I'm sure you can find a nice substitution!

    Kelly - Thanks!

    Kimmie - Thank you! Yes, a polka-dot peek indeed!

    Lisa (RTS) - Thanks! I can't wait to see what you come up with!

    LC - Thanks! I was lucky enough to find this lone cardigan in my store months after it sold out!

    Lisa - Yep, I got it:) Just replied!

    Oh wow, that slip with that dress go perfectly together! I love them!

    That picture of Talus is indeed too cute not to share! I've been trying to convince Hubby to get a dog, I think I need to show him this pic!

    Perfect combination in your outfit! I should track down a frilly slip I think. Talus is too adorable, thanks for sharing the picture :)

    The slip is so much fun to play with, isn't it? Love you Dansko shoes, they look super comfortable!

    Fashioneggpplant - Thanks:)

    Clara - Thank you! I hope you get a dog soon! They are so fun, loving, sweet, etc. (a lot of work as well, but so worth it:).

    Jess - Thanks! I have definitely enjoyed the slip - it can add a lot to an otherwise boring outfit. Let me know if you find a good one! Isn't Talus such a cutie?

    Inmark - Yes, it is so fun! The Dansko's are super comfy. I have to wear them quite a bit right now because of a foot injury. I miss all of my pretty heels, but I will get to wear them all soon enough!

    I love your slip! Plus I completely agree, the pic of Talus is too cute to pass up! Where did you get the belt? Is that Anthro too? I really like your look!

    Minnesota Maven - Thanks! Yes, the belt is from anthro:) It's the Snakebite belt.
