Friday night I got home and realized I spilled on my dress, so I switched to the dress that arrived in the mail – the “Kate” dress from J. Crew in “Flame.” This is a bright orange-red that I adore. On sale and with a coupon so the dress was a cheap as Old Navy. Score! Same accessories.
Attended a circle of women in my community which was really wonderful. Met some new people, connected closer with those I already knew, had some of the BEST watermelon of the season!
Saturday… for the life of me I cannot remember Saturday. Oh yes, yoga, then lunch with my mom, then ran errands. I came home and tried out some of the camping supplies for our upcoming trip to Bonnaroo, waterproofed my Duo boots, took a nap, went out to dinner… nothing terribly exciting and no pictures.
Sunday began with errands and then yoga.

We had a great time, saw lots of friends, played with their son who just turned 1, chilled on the beach and grilled for dinner. Got a bit of sun even though I put on the SPF 30.
Monday we went to visit friends in Northern Virginia who just got a new place and were having a cookout/housewarming. Again no full-length pic, just a shot of me in the back seat en route.

I’ve just had my ankle fused which means no more high heels for me EVER. I don’t have to stick to flat flats but a 1 inch heels is about the highest I can go. I’m finding this particularly tough because as a short (5ft 2) round person, I’ve relied on heels to elongate my…
If you know Wardrobe Oxygen, you know I don’t usually recommend the look for less. Rarely does this concept work. Folks will promote it because it’s appealing.
