Outfit Post: On Boats

For our final day of vacation, Erin and I spent a very enjoyable and interesting time on the USS Turner Joy, a former Vietnam War battleship that is now a museum. Paddington had a grand time, I assure you.

On our second vacation day, Erin and I took the ferry from the peninsula over to Seattle, and did a bit of touristing. Hilariously, we both dressed in our country finest for the adventure -- there were plaid and boots and suspenders galore.

Erin, Mom, and I went on a minibreak last weekend to Seattle and the Olympic Peninsula, where it was a gorgeous, breezy, sunny 80 degrees and perfect weather for some bright summer clothes to go with my new bright summer hair.

One final outfit left from my Memorial Day shoot with Erin.

Dress: Dorothy Perkins

Tights: Target

Sunglasses: Nordstrom

Boots: Web Shoemakers

Outfit Post: Oldie

I actually wore this weeks ago, before it became a consistent 90-100 degrees every day. It feels quite classy and fun at the same time; a classic combo of cigarette pants + flats + sweater made spunky by the hot pink and dolmen sleeve.

Sweater: Gap

Trousers: Kohls

Shoes: Macys

Necklace: Target

I adore the print on this dress; the vibrant colors and the bright, modern feeling makes it stand out in my wardrobe.

Outfit Post: Pleather

Confession time: I like pleather, a bit. This shirt, with it's pleather yoke and soft jersey body, is just the right amount of edge for me.

Shirt: Kohls

Jeans: Gap Outlet

Shoes: Nordstrom Rack

Outfit Post: I'm turning violet, Violet!

Yes, that's a hint of purple in my hair there. It's more than a hint, to be honest, but inside it isn't quite picked up. I'm having fun playing with it, experimenting with clothes that compliment it, and am very happy with the new shiny color!

This dress is one of my favorites for comfort + glam factor and works as a the most incredible neutral. I'm wearing it even more neutrally than usual, with black tights and maroon shoes.

Oh dear me, I'm a few days behind! I wore this last week to work and love the comfiness of this ponte dress which still manages to look pulled-together. My hair on the other hand...

This dress would be great with a skinny neon belt, too! I've got my eye on a bright pink one right now, so we'll see!
