Monday - Fun day - volunteered in E's class, quick conference with M's teacher on teacher/class for next year, then home to walk Lucy and do a bit of work before meeting 3-Penny Princess in Rockville for some ice cream. Ice cream at 2:00 on a Monday afternoon, with the sun shining. As 3-PP said, she felt like she was playing hooky. Gifford's ice cream - yum! And it was fun to catch up since she couldn't make our mini-JCA outing Saturday night. Of course, I felt like a shlub in my tee & khakis next to her and her perfectly outfitted cardi, skirt & heels. But what can you do? I hid behind my sunglasses and had the blinding tennis ball-colored bag to distract any onlookers from my not-quite-up-to-par outfit.
Which was...J Crew ringspun silk applique critter tee this past winter, BR khakis, and the Isaac target bronze sandals. I would like to say a HUGE thank you to m&m'sMommy, who found the actual tee on Polyvore after I attempted to rig up a facsimile for PV. Thank you again!

Wearing Today-6/1/09 by HeidiGblog featuring J Crew
Today - 2nd round! Not just of the gray tees, but of the filling replacements. We are now 4 down, 2 to go (next Thursday is the last). This round was much better since it was lower teeth. I did remember to painkiller-up when I got home, so I'm a little less mental right now than I was the last time.
I am
wearing the J Crew Slub Cotton Raw-Edge Tee (#15329, $29.50, Heather Cloud is $19.99 in store) that I got Saturday night with the girls. Thank you to Summerilla, who steered me towards it. Or rather, came back to the dressing rooms saying "I can't believe I just paid full price for one of these and the gray ones are on sale for $19.99." So of course, I said "Go grab me an M and an L, please!!!"
I took an M in this tee - fit is similar to the boyfriend tissue tee. I love the detailing at the neck, it's very pretty. The tee would work well with just about any bottoms, and I would even put it with my black suit the next time I need to wear it. I think it's quite nice for under jackets and cardis, too. The length is on the longer side, but not too long. And it's very soft and cozy. I highly recommend.
With the raw edge tee, I just wore white jeans, my Clarks pink peep toes, and my gray BR merino cardi (like the Michelle) - even though it was 80 degrees outside, because the dentist's office is chilly and I was craving warmth and coziness.
