E and I have been talking a little more about what would happen if a pastoral job came up sooner than we were planning. We’re not going anywhere soon, but we never know when it might come up.

I can’t stop thinking about how much I’m going to miss our backyard someday. Even the sad old tree stump (which I have a great plan for!), and the patchy bushes. But especially the hills and our garden and patio and firepit.

Lots of layers on top with this outfit. I attempted to alter this way too large top because I couldn’t resist the polka dots, but I botched it royally so I can only wear it underneath other layers. So the blazer returns…

tank: Banana Republic
polka dot shirt: thrifted, altered by me
blazer: LC, for Kohls
skirt: Banana Republic
tights: Target
oxford pumps: thrifted

Important people on campus today means dressing a little more business than casual this week.

About a year about I was generally dressing more formally at work—always neutrals, pencils skirts or slacks and pumps with button up shirts. After about a year here, I realized that A) no one really cared how formally I dressed [to a certain extent] B) I come across as more genuine in my job if I’m wearing things I like.

This outfit is my perfect balance of looking put together at work, without looking boring. (the shoes I’m wearing were my wedding shoes!)
