Mixing older clothing with newer accessories is kind of my jam.  I don’t even remember how much I originally paid for this dress, but it was worth every penny because it continues to be a summer favorite after a few seasons.  I consider this head wrap a new favorite.  Head wraps have been great for the rainy/stormy days we have been getting lately in Philly.  It completely eliminates worrying how the weather will affect your hair for the day!

Happy Wednesday! I don’t really subscribe to the “no white before Memorial Day or after Labor Day” rule.   So my white blazer has been a major wardrobe staple this spring.  I’ve worn it everywhere from work, to evenings out with friends, and everything in between.  I love having items in my wardrobe that I reach for over and over again.

What item has been a staple for you this season?

I had some doubt, but I now admit that we are in the era of the selfie (and also perhaps the hashtag).  Though selfies are not new, they are definitely ubiquitous now.  As I was photographing this weekend outfit, I saw a guy in the next block down taking a selfie of himself with his phone in front of a mural.  But if I can photograph my outfits on a regular basis, I see no problem with that guy taking selfies on a tiny Philly side street.  Have a fantastic week!
