Hi everyone! Sorry for the long hiatus. As you might have seen on this Instagram post, I was concussed in a soccer game about four weeks ago. Thankfully it was a mild concussion and not nearly as bad as other ones I’ve heard of, but it still required a lot of rest, early bed times because I’m unable to sleep through the night, and more painkillers than I’m happy to take. Unfortunately, I also suffered whiplash. I’m getting better but let’s just say headache-free days are no longer something I take for granted!
I have a few new pieces in my wardrobe that I’ve been wearing a lot but haven’t posted before today.
First thing I have to talk about is my Burberry rainboots! I’m so in love with them. They even have real leather straps! I bought them together with my Hunter boots thinking I would return one of the pairs but I kept both (I know) and they’ve both been so useful and so frequently worn. They are the Burberry ‘Roscot’ Waterproof Riding Boot and I wear a size 4.5. I find them a little hard to take off with my athletic calves, and when I go to a friend’s house I have to tell them to give me like two minutes to take them off but other than that slight inconvenience they’re so chic!
Second item is a fur-hooded parka from Minusey that I wear in rotation with my Canada Goose Shelburne jacket. The Minusey parka is sold out but I found this one for under $60 and this parka that’s more than 50% off. I love the removable faux-shearling liner and the giant fur hood.
Next up – a navy long-sleeve dress that hugs the body just right.
I was buying gym and tennis clothes from Lululemon online and one click led to another, and before I know it a few dresses and skirts arrived at my house (Lululemon skirts are so nice). This was my first time trying non-gym clothes from Lululemon and while I think they’re hit or miss for me so far, their hits are big hits. I just noticed that they released a short sleeve dress online. Ugh, shut up and take my money. The dress I’m wearing is the Lululemon &Go Everywhere Dress. I’m wearing size 4. Their newest dress is the After Waves dress.
I stole – I mean borrowed – this spacious brown leather tote from my mom. It’s the perfect bag for when I do photoshoots because it fits my camera bag, my flash, water bottle, energy bar, my wallet, and more. It also looks pretty great. I couldn’t find it online at Banana Republic but the Madewell Transport tote is very similar.
