This is an extra added bonus version of Workday Wardrobe for this week only…

Saturday

Day One. We drove up to Los Angeles from San Diego to have dinner with more family…and spent the afternoon having lunch and browsing Melrose Ave, going into shops and people-watching.

  • Maeve top from Anthropologie, size 26. When I bought it last summer (my birthday gift to myself) they were out of size 24, which would have been my normal size. Now I wish I’d gone down to a 22, cuz this is constantly falling off my shoulders. Not sure if that can be altered. I mean, I’m sure if you have enough money, anything can be altered, but I wouldn’t want to spend a ton of money.
  • White Old Navy cropped raw hem jeans, size 24
  • Brown (well, they say brown, I say camel or chestnut) Kelly&Katie Jordi flats.

SUNDAY

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

We had brunch on a covered patio while it rained then went to Huntington Gardens for a stroll. I wore my nurse’s outfit.

  • Blue & White striped linen top by Ayr, size 3x
  • White Old Navy cropped raw hem jeans, size 24
  • Reeboks Classics
  • Cognac crossbody by Fossil
  • It all looked better and less nursey earlier in the day when it was cooler and I had my green utility jacket on

MONDAY

After driving back down to San Diego we went to…oh gosh, where did we go? A mind is a terrible thing to waste. The place with the seals…LA JOLLA! I got to pull out the Junarose dress but I needed the lightweight duster cardigan over it. We sat outside for dinner after and we were freezing! Fortunately, they had lap blankets for guests or we never would have made it!

  • Dress by Junarose. Old. Never to be found again.
  • Palomino lightweight duster length cardigan by Old Navy. I sure wish they’d bring this line back again. They’ve been so useful.

TUESDAY

In the afternoon we went to Balboa Park, but…I’d hit the wall by this day and just barely managed to walk around and see a few things. I will say this, California is much more sitting-friendly than NY! There are benches everywhere. Everything I’m wearing here is old and no longer available: American Rag “Russian Nesting Doll top;” black Charlotte Russe Refuge jeans (which I forgot to NOT put in the dryer and they shrunk in tightness and length – they’re ON but they felt annoying…and THAT’S annoying as I only recently discovered them and have been wearing them tons); old black Adidas.

We went out to dinner with The Boyfriend to a cute little Japanese restaurant in Little Italy (go figure). Sometimes my daughter is a giant.

WEDNESDAY

Little did I know, while dressing that day, that I would be facing death that afternoon. To my credit, I did not fall on the slippery, algae-covered, rocky steps of Ocean Beach.

THURSDAY

Forgot to take a shot of my plane outfit. Jeans, tee, cardigan, sneakers.

FRIDAY

Back at home, I took a low-effort stab at Valentine’s Day dressing.

Funny, when I look back at my outfits, day by day, it seems like I was barely there for any length of time at all! But this week was certainly a nice change from jeans and sweaters…sweaters and jeans.

Enjoy your weekend xoxo
