I’ve looked at life from both sides now.
And I still couldn’t figure out which style to pick today. Part of me wanted to dress up… to celebrate hitting the halfway point of the dress challenge. Part of me said — you need to do some work in the garden and run errands, so better dress for comfort. So… I did both.
I started out dressy, and had a fun time with that and making a little video!
The Look
For those of you new to this blog …I am involved in a 100-Day Challenge, put on by Wool& — Same dress. 100 days. (And yes, you can wash it!) Part of my reasons for deciding to do this was to simplify my life, especially with my lifestyle.
What’s in store today:
Aside from pearls and high heels in the kitchen –look out Mrs Cleaver — I had errands, and needed to blow off the patio… and plant some flowers. And then there was podcasts, dancing, a great zoom with other Dress Ladies, another zoom ukelele jam, and knitting and blogging, and some dancing thrown in.
I slipped into something a little more comfortable for errands, and gardening. But I gotta say, it was sort of fun getting all gussied up and hanging around the house.
Faded, pigment dyed oversized long t-shirt… just what I needed for the flip side of my both sides now day! This one is a bit threadbare, but super soft.
I am super proud of myself. Today, I refrained from going to Goodwill – even though it was senior discount day.
Cabela’s denim vest has made it’s appearance here before… and I had it on for today’s zoom — and there were a couple of other folks in the same “breakout room” that ALSO had denim vests –Great Minds Think Alike!!
Shoes are Sperry — seriously, I don’t remember them ever looking this cool. And super comfortable. Great rain shoes here in the Pacific Northwest.
(AND… first day without leggings or tights!!)
Since I mentioned it… here is a little of the garden!
Thanks for joining me on my both sides now post. Stay tuned for the next 50 days of #tracywearswool!
.
Be well, and play on!
–Tracy
