Where:

Why:
I’m quickly realizing that if I wanted to, I could be in shorts and a tee shirt all day. Instead, I am making the most of the beautiful things in my closet and getting up, showering and doing my hair and makeup. Its a good routine and makes working from home feel less like a Saturday.

This might be my favorite outfit ever and ditto to the photos. Lets start with the hat - its a real deal cloche style that set the mood for this 1920’s inspired outfit. Let me just say it was not what I was expecting (I made some hats in college). It was way nicer. But more on that later.  The blouse can look very ’20s or ’50s or very modern depending on the styling. Paired with the hat (and if the hem was 2 feet longer) I could be going to a speak easy and doing the Charleston!  Oh oh oh. I love this one so. The red lips are oh so lady like too. What do you think?
