6. Finding Balance

Yes I CAN leave the puppy at home. Yes I DO wear outfits that aren’t just leggings and puffy coats.

WHAT

The first time I left the pup alone while I went out to lunch with J. She was fine, I was fine, everyone was fine.

WEAR

Jacket (Everlane): TBH, this jacket has been on and off the “to go” list… until I put this outfit on. It’s a super warm jacket and honestly I wish I would’ve gotten the green color when it was available, but I got the tan on sale. So, here we are. I loved it with the light jeans and have been finding ways to wear it since that have been somewhat successful. If it wasn’t so warm and comfortable I’d try to sell it or donate it BUT I am trying to love what I have and I think there’s promise with this jacket.

Jeans (Madewell): I have had these jeans for 5 years or so and I LOVE them. This is the second pair because the button popped off the first pair the FIRST time I wore them. When I brought them back to the store the sales person had the audacity to suggest I had purchased the wrong size….? I assured her that I knew my size and the button was defective. It was an awkward exchange but I stood my ground and these have been a staple in my closet ever since. They’re called the “Perfect Summer Jean” and while they perfect for summer, finding ways to wear them all year makes me real happy.
