Here's the last of my Pennsylvania outfits! I wore this to go to the Peddlers Village shopping center and Crystal Cave. I tried some more Summer layering for this look, a sweater tank over a dress. Worked pretty well! Except I was a little self conscious about the straps of the dress peeking out on my shoulders, looks like another type of strap that I usually like to conceal ;)

Another outfit from my visit to Pennsylvania! I was stupid and wore this to go to Chilis for dinner. I ate basically two rounds of their chips and salsa (my sister had 1/4 of the amount I had if I had to take a guess) followed by my cripsy chicken crispers. Bad day for high waisted jeans! Before we went to eat we visited this little arboretum and made friends with some ducks.

Lately I've been finding myself throwing jackets over all my outfits even if it's too warm for them. The reason? I'm getting bored with not layering! There's only so many times you can wear a tee or tank without something on top, right?

This is what I wore on Sunday for our family's Labor Day get together. The sweater didn't stay on long but I thought it made the outfit a bit more interesting. One of my uncle's said I looked like the 70s because of my jeans and shoes - which is what I was going for. Unfortunately when I took off the shoes the top part RIPPED from the soles. Just ripped clean off...how does that happen?! See the photo I posted on Instagram here.

Sometimes I take my outfit pictures with wet hair. That was the case for these outfit pictures. But what can you do? I don't like to blow dry it so if I take my shower in the morning it is wet most of the day (which is why I usually shower at night.) I wore this to hang out at my grandma's for the afternoon, it was quite a hot day, Summer definitely doesn't want to leave us, that probably doesn't bode well for Winter. But I don't want to think about that yet.

Last week I was visiting my sister in Pennsylvania. She lives on a golf course with this cute pond! While I spent most of the week in the house working we did have some fun in the evenings and on Wednesday we visited a shopping village and a cave (I promise, it was cool).
I hope everyone in the US is going to enjoy their day off. I imagine I'll be working on a secret project all day (not blog related) but it will still be nice to not have to worry about real work.

I wore this on a perfect end of August day spent with Lydia and Christine. We went to our favorite restaurant, The Chowder Pot, followed by some shopping. I behaved and bought nothing! (Well, technically I bought this Jason Wu for Target dress for my cousin for $5, but that doesn't count.) The weather was so perfect, not too hot, not chilly. Just perfection.
Everything in this outfit, apart from the sunglasses, is at least 2 years old. Gotta love pieces that stick around! This dress will definitely be in my closet until it withers away to nothing (or I grow out of it...)
Dress: Jones New York (Lord & Taylor), Sandals: Seychelles (DSW), Bag: Marc by Marc Jacobs (Net-a-Porter), Sunglasses: Chanel (bought in Europe), Necklace: gifted

Sometimes you just need to wear a printed shirt like a jacket to make an outfit. Remove this one piece and I'm just wearing a tank top and shorts. It's not groundbreaking, but it adds a bit of variety.

This is the companion outfit to the brunch outfit I shared last week. Two weekends ago I headed up to NYC for a girls' night with one of my friends and a bunch of her other friends. She wanted to put together a group that had never met before (apart from her) which was really fun. I got to know some great new friends and came out of my shell a bit.
We started the night by having a late dinner at Antibes Bistro followed by some drinks at The Back Room, one of only two speakeasies in New York City that operated during Prohibition and is still in existence today! Most of you know that I don't drink much (because I can't find anything I like!) but I did try Antibe's namesake cocktail, sadly it was too bubbly for me since there was champagne in it.
I didn't take any photos of my outfit that night so I put the outfit back on just for you guys! ;)
Top: Marshalls, Skirt: T by Alexander Wang (Net-a-Porter), Pumps: Jimmy Choo (Roundabout Resale), Necklace: House of Harlow (South Moon Under)

I've been thinking of ways to wear this crop top without jeans and thought I would try it with this high waisted skirt. I wore it with skinny jeans and flared jeans in the past. I think the flared outfit is my favorite, but this skirt one came out pretty good too!
P.S. Can you believe it is September already?! Insanity. At least we still have 21 days left before Summer is officially over, even if Labor Day and school starting marks the unofficial end.
