Outfit || Summer Stripes

   Hello everyone! Just when you were beginning to wonder if I would ever put up a September post (okay, maybe that was me who was wondering), here I am! Life has remained busy and due to various factors, I spend much of my free time sitting on the couch doing things that demand as little  physical or mental energy as possible. I'm discovering that adulthood is a long season in life in which one's level of responsibility does not change in relation to one's amount of sleep (thanks insomnia). One simply does the "have tos" and puts aside the "want tos" to make room for naps. ;)

   Today's outfit has a slightly 90's throwback feel without being overtly old-school. There is nothing like a jean skirt for those days when I want to look cute while still keeping it simple. I found this one a few months ago and am really enjoying it. What better way to style it than with my favorite pattern, stripes! My new dachshund charm bracelet added some shine and payed homage to my old friend. Black flats completed the easy-going look, making an ensemble that would be equally ready for work or just a casual weekend around town.

And a blooper, just for fun ;P

   Well my friends, summer has come to a close just like that. What were your highlights of the season? Though I never went on vacation, I enjoyed a lovely summer. I tried new restaurants and went to beautiful outdoor spaces with loved ones, went to a ladies retreat with my church (which was sort of a mini vacation), had plenty of ice cream, and soaked up some vitamin D while taking inventory of cars at work! Let me know what you've been up to in the comments below! ^_^


Now to Him who is able to do far more abundantly beyond all that we ask or think, according to the power that works within us, to Him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jesus to all generations forever and ever. Amen.
Ephesians 3:20-21
