Patio Time

Okay, I admit, I wore the same thing this afternoon as I did last night. But seeing as how I was doing the same activities.... (going for a walk in the river valley and chillin with some wine on my deck that overlooks said valley) I figured it was okay to done the same attire.

This may become my summer uniform. Simple cotton skirt with elastic waist and a tank top. This particular tank and skirt combo came from Old Navy, but lets be serious, you can find tanks and skirts all over. And right now, they are ridiculously cheap as they are having End of Season Sales already and technically the first day of summer hasn`t even happened. I hate when they do that. Pretty soon it will be Back to School sales..... (and whats even more depressing for us Northern folk, is the fact that in less than 2 days the longest day of the year will occur and then the days start getting shorter again!)

So this is me on Friday and Saturday. And this is my deck. Its my happy place and you are welcome for cocktails anytime!

DAY 19 - Saturday morning

I kinda hate working on Saturdays, but sometimes, it is a neccessary evil. This is one such evil Saturday, so I was up early today. Ugh. You can again tell by my face, that Im not impressed to be up at this time of day on a Saturday. Its one thing to be up early when you have something fun to do, quite another when you have to go be cheerful when you are not so full of cheer yourself.

But, on the upside, I put on a pretty dress, put a smile on my face and by 12:30pm it was all over and I was back on my deck where life is good.

This particular pretty black dress is a sleeveless Calvin Klein that I picked up from Winners last fall when I need a dress to go to a derby wedding. (One of my teammates Jessy Jynx married our head ref Crankshaft, true story). You gotta love Winners when you can find little treasures like this, especially since I found it the day before I needed it. And as it turns out I have worn this dress for several business and personal occasions since.

I slipped on some black patent Mary Janes Guccis, wut wut ;) and my fake pearls and I was out the door.

DAY 18 - better late than never

I was totally lazy yesterday cuz it was beautiful outside and since there are such few days that the sun shines in this city, I took full advantage of the great outdoors and stayed off the computer....bliss.

However, I did manage to throw on this green and pink sundress from Trina Turk and meet the girls for our usual Friday lunchdate.

I bought this dress for three reasons.

a)its super cute

b)it was on a ridiculous sale

c)I wanted to own a dress with my name in the label.

(oh and the shoes...... from Payless.... see, im not a total label whore)
