Too Late


I realized too late this morning that I have an olive colored blazer that would have been a better choice than this predictable one. At least with the navy if you squint you can pretend I'm wearing a suit.

Top and jeans: Old Navy

Blue Tuesday


I was going to make some blue puns in this post (hence my holding of the "Bluebook") but I lost steam pretty much as soon as I took the photo.  Maybe tomorrow.

Casual


Ever since Jessica Quirk introduced me to the notion of pairing Chuck Taylors with a t-shirt dress, it has become my weekend uniform. Although it is not the weekend and I am at work, in deference to the heat I decided to let my Saturday dress out on a Friday.

Sneakers: Converse

Reliable


I'm having a rough morning so it was relief to know I had this dress in my closet.  On its own it works for client meetings and with a blazer I can go to court later for a seminar.  If only everything in my life was this simple.

Sweatsuit



I have been quite remiss in extolling the virtues of this suit, prior to now. The suit is made from a thick cotton knit and has an elastic waistband - thus it is essentially a grown-up sweatsuit - perfect for a foggy Monday after a weekend in which you ate your body weight in cake.

Cozy


Today I am preparing for a hearing which means I will be spending a lot of time sitting on the floor in my office (my brain works better when I can spread stuff out and my desk is a lost cause). Thus, I chose comfortable cords and a warm knit sweater. Regrettably, I also chose to put on some fancy lace underwear which is pretty but very uncomfortable.

Would it be wrong to send my intern to Target to pick me up some plain cotton underwear? Probably, although I'm sure I've asked him for worse.

Sweater: Old Navy
Cords: ? via super sale on Amazon
Boots: Frye
Necklace: $1 bin at the consignment store
