Happy hump day, all! Did you read my “rule of 3” post yesterday here? See how well I did below – or not – with following the rule!
So, the temps over the past week have been in the 60s and 70s. It’s been so nice during the week and mostly cold and rainy on the weekends! The AC is cranked in the school building so it’s been nice to have long sleeves or a sweater.
This is my uniform as of late – Old Navy blouse, Matilda Jane pants, sweater. I am loving my spring 2019 Old Navy blouses – I have a couple floral and this butterfly/insect print. I usually size up one at Old Navy and make sure to line dry them.
Allergy eyes called for glasses on this day! I think it’s figure flattering to go monochromatic with black pants and tank and throw a kimono over it. I love this kimono from Nordstrom.com last summer and it can double as a swim cover up. I can use these two basics and throw many a kimono over to change it up. This would be a great travel outfit.
I love these palazzo pants from last season. This is how you get away with essentially wearing pajama pants at work. This is a consignment orange blouse and a necklace I’ve had for a long time.
Here is a student of mine who said I could use her photo- love her pants and as you can see, even the young girls are wearing these fun printed pants. These platform tennis shoes in white seem to be all the rage with the young girls and many fashion bloggers.
Here is a weekend outfit for you: This is what I wore Saturday to run errands and watch my son’s Shakespeare play. I wore my $124 OTBT consignment sandals that I got for $18 for the first time and they were surprisingly walkable and comfortable.
So, my weekend wear is often the same-ish as my work week wear!
What have you been wearing lately?
Thanks for reading! Be sure to come back tomorrow for an exciting coupon code!
And, don’t forget if you want help getting dressed next week, here is the schedule:
Monday – stripes
Tuesday – floral
Wednesday – something you haven’t worn yet this season
Thursday – swing dress or any spring/summer dress
Friday – graphic tee with a cardigan or kimono

You got such a great deal on those sandals from the consignment store! Your temps sounds terrific, I’d love weather like that!

Yes I did! You had said they were comfortable but I had a hard time believing I could handle that heel height – you are right – very comfortable!
This is our sweet spot of temps but also May is so busy as you know! Have a great day!

Right now I’m wearing jeans with tops, or cargo pants (yes, really!) with tops. But tomorrow I am going to shave my legs and wear my new jeans skirt for the first time! The temperature will “hit” (wow…) 62 and nothing can stop me! When it comes to shopping I just ordered beige wedges and a white off shoulder blouse from our Swedish HM.
Hump day, that’s a fun word I’ve never heard before! I just googled it and will teach it to my students! (See? That’s one of the reasons I love your blog!)

Haha
I think it refers to the camel’s hump?
Beige wedges and white sound so cute!
Bare those legs! Lol!

Ha! Now I can teach you something! (directly from Internet) The hump refers to the hump in the middle of the week, and then you can slide towards the weekend…

Oh yes I knew that but I thought it was also about the camel! I guess not!

Cute outfits! Today I wore jeans, a turtleneck, and a sweater as spring is very reluctant to make a showing here in New England… the sun hasn’t been out much and the past several days temperatures haven’t even reached 60.
