Leaving on a Jet Plane



Outfit Details:
Blazer: RW&Co
Top: Barefoot Contessa
Skirt: H&M 
Shoes: Winners
Bag: Aldo

I'm pretty sure that's the blog title for every blogger going on a vacation but you know what they say, if it ain't broke don't fix it. Alright my friends, I am off to spend the weekend in LA! After spending the last 4 days in sweat pants and dying on the couch I decided to dress extra girly for our drive to the airport. Thank you everyone for your well wishes. I still don't feel 100% but there is something about a pleated orange skirt that makes me feel a tiny bit better. The fact that the skirt only cost $10 makes me feel a tinier bit better than the tiny bit that wearing it made me feel. Hopefully the starbucks I plan on getting asap will make me feel much better than the tiny bit because I am the one driving some of the girls to the Seattle airport and we all know that sleeping while driving isn't the safest idea ever. It's also not the most comfortable idea ever... who wants to sleep with a steering wheel in the way? Not this girl.
