As you know, I have my first Junior League meeting next week and I happened to be in Jupiter yesterday for a meeting. So, I dropped by The Gardens Mall to go see if Lilly Pulitzer had any dresses on sale. Oh, yes they did!
Since we bought the house, we're on a budget (surprise, surprise), so I can't spend $300.00 + on a dress right now (or ever for that matter!). But it is S. Florida, so I can wear summer practically 'til November (plus it's Lilly, wear it anytime). I was able to pick up one of the summer shifts for....are you ready....$79.00!!! I couldn't believe that they had it in my size, but they had quite a few items in my size that were on sale. So, this is what I chose:
Of course, my office is always absolutely FREEZING, so I brought along my 50th Jubilee sweater. Not exactly the same pinks, but again, it's Lilly, so who cares. I matched the outfit up with my pink McKims and a 1" grosgrain ribbon as a headband. Definitely my new favorite outfit!
Now, onto my office...I am certainly the brightest thing in there, it's looking a little drab and "bleh". It's hard to spice it up though with papers and blueprints everywhere! I also have three pairs of shoes in various locations: tennis shoes for roof-walking, wellies for the rainstorms when I don't want to get my sandals wet, and an old black pair of Guess flats that I really need to throw out! In addition, I have a Tommy Hilfiger lime green jacket that's been here since January, maybe I should take that home. I am certainly not as organized here as I am at home!
Eventually I might get around to spicing up my office which might, in turn, entice me to keep it neater. I need to do it tres inexpensively though as most of the decor will usually be covered in shoes, articles of clothing and paperwork. I'm thinking Marshall's??? Maybe next month!
