Work-from-home weekdays


I mentioned that I've been working from home mostly this summer.  So what do I wear when I work from home in the summer? Summer dresses!  I love comfy cute dresses that I can wear while I sit around the house and when I run out for errands.  Here are a few:

Black maxi: Dorothy Perkins, bought in London
Red, black and white dress: random teen-agery store years ago
Orange dress: Old Navy
Black and pink dress: I think JC Penny! But from SO long ago.

Black super-basic super-minimal flip-flops: Old Navy (great for narrow or low-volume feet, and like 2$!)

And yes, I have even more summery dresses along these lines.  This is one of my favorite parts of my wardrobe because these dresses never go out of style, and they are so comfy, cool, casual, but still cute.

Office Monday


This summer I have basically been coming in to the office once a week, and working from home the other 4 days.  It's great - I've been productive, but have also relaxed a bit more, worked out a little more, etc.  Here's today's Office Monday outfit.  

I love this skirt and always wore it with a top over in the past, but I decided to try tucking today.  I think it works despite my high waist.  I was also super happy about this cobalt blue with the black and white skirt and shoes.  

I love this skirt.  Every time I wear it I end up checking the designer's website again.  When I went to her boutique in SF I came away thinking that she's really brilliant at cutting and draping fabric, and finds the most interesting prints.  But she's honestly not great at sewing.  I think that's why her stuff is still reasonably priced.  If you like well draped clothing, check her out: Sunhee Moon.  And this basic skirt is one of her standards.  Right now she has it in a few solids.

This was not the best pair of shoes to wear on moving day - I'm moving offices right now.  But I couldn't resist.  Worst case I'm closing my office door and taking my shoes off while unpacking the last couple of boxes.  :)

(Top and shoes: White house black market, Skirt: Sunhee Moon)
