This is what you wear when it’s 100 degrees outside and you have no A/C in your car.
It does run small in the hips so I recommend sizing up.
I also bought these.
Happy Shopping!

All day I felt like a 50s housewife in this dress. I kept thinking I should meet my husband at the door with a martini in-hand. But that’s not me!
I love that this dress has pockets. It has a little belt as well. If I had left the house I might have changed it to a patent black belt.
…You wash some clothes that are “dry-clean” or “hand-wash” only in your machine that has a “Hand-wash” setting?
Everything comes out great. The Silk Tiered Camis didn’t fray. The pencil skirts didn’t shrink. The beading on the tees didn’t fall off.
Now…what happens when you add this dress along with your light colors?
And toss in a few white items. Yes I said white.
And let’s throw in my favorite color Jackie.
Did I mention I also had these in the wash?
I really did cry.
Any way…This all happened before my birthday and party and family visiting. So I re-washed as quickly as I could with bleach. All, except for the whites, came out of the 2nd wash with no green or barely noticeable in natural light.
As for the whites, I was finally able to soak them in a water/bleach mixture today and re-wash with more bleach. (I know…very bad.) But everything now seems to be it’s original color. I took all of them outside for a good sun-dry and don’t see a spot of green anywhere.
Lesson learned.
But I’m glad to know I can wash those “dry-clean only” items in the machine on the “Hand-Wash” setting. I’ll just make sure to stick with the same colors. Even if that means washing one item at a time.
So I just have to tell you that my mom scored one of the best deals I’ve ever seen from J Crew.
Sorry for the lack of posting. I’ve been on vacation since last Wednesday.
What have I been doing?
Wednesday: Birthday – Presents, Amazing lunch, Shopping at Anthro (I only bought a necklace. What?!)
Thursday: Prepping for my party on Saturday and wishing Hurricane Alex away.
Friday: Brother arrived in town, then my parents along with more rain from Alex
Saturday: PARTY!!! Everyone had a FANTASTIC time and the weather was good. A little rain in the a.m. and clouds most of the day. Hamburgers, Hot Dogs/Chili Dogs, Potato Salad, Beer, Margarita Machine, Swimming, Washers…TONS OF FUN!
Sunday: Relaxing 4th of July – swimming and more margaritas. More family came over. Mexican food for breakfast, American food for lunch and Italian for dinner. Top that off with an unexpected fireworks show from the neighborhood next to us.
Monday: A little work, more swimming, dominoes and poker.
Tuesday: More swimming and pitching washers. Mom and grandma are making Arroz con pollo (chicken and rice) for dinner. One of my favorite dishes.
Wednesday: Last full day to spend with my brother before he leaves on Thursday.
I have just the rest of today and tomorrow before I get back to work on Thursday. I have to say this Staycaytion has been great. This is the first time I’ve been on the computer for more than an hour since Wednesday! Husband has enjoyed himself as well. He’s trying to figure out how we can do this all the time.
I’ll be back to regular posting in a few days.
