Please forgive my prolonged absence from this blog, but it has been a busy couple of weeks. My husband finally made the trip from Georgia to New Mexico (a very long drive!) so he is here right now and we have been busy making plans to finally complete our move. This post should have gone out last week, but better late than never!
The Ice Cream Sweater from Loft (on sale for $39.99) shown above is one I first saw on a fashion blogger's website here. I love a unique and quirky top, so I had to order this one. It arrived a couple of weeks ago and while it is a rather unusual fit it worked for me. Unfortunately the one sent to me had a sort of inky stain on the front, so I exchanged it and just received the replacement yesterday. I may not be able to wear it right now because it is getting a bit too warm, but I look forward to having it for early fall or next spring.
The Stamp Print Mojave Camp Shirt ($55.99-$59.99) from Draper's & Damon's is another find from a fashion blogger's website here. I love the bold print and the Y neckline, and the fact that this top would work on its own or as a lightweight second layer. I am waiting to see if this shirt goes on sale before I order one, but I do hope to buy it for summer.
One last top I wanted to mention is the Lobster Print Shell ($59.50) from Talbots. This 100% cotton sleeveless top has a loose fit, split neck, and whimsical lobster print (I am a sucker for crustacean-patterned apparel) and is the perfect summer top. Again, I am waiting to see if this one goes on sale before I place an order, but hopefully it will also become part of my summer wardrobe eventually!
I hope everyone had a great Memorial Day, and has been vaccinated so that we all can enjoy more freedom of movement this summer. I have to say it is so wonderful to finally see my husband again with little fear of spreading or contracting COVID-19, and I can't wait to finally complete our move from Georgia to New Mexico. Currently I am trying to decide if it is feasible for me to make a trip back to Georgia to help with sorting and eliminating more stuff before the movers come to pack it all up. I need to find a house sitter who can take care of one old dog with health issues, a younger dog with a quirky personality, and an old horse who has no issues but needs someone who understands horses. Wish me luck!
