earrings - Topshop / top - thrifted / wrap watch - La Mer / overdyed skinnies - Zara / woven flats - UO
My apologies for the crickets that have taken up residence around here this last week, taking and posting photos had to take a bit of a backseat to 'real life' for a few days. In that time we spent a long day on the bus to get my parents' house, had a whirlwind visit with some of my relatives from Texas, and have been chipping away at the miles-long to-do list that comes with trying to get jobs and move to a new city.
Unfortunately we had to hustle through these photos today, as a serious storm was brewing and the rain was just starting as we went outside. This outfit is dead simple, but it's exactly the kind of thing I'll miss once the weather gets cooler and I'm dressing for work. I love that a messy updo, bright top and statement earrings feel like just enough on these muggy summer days, and while I love layers (and boots! and tights!), getting dressed for fall (or an office) seems at the moment like an awful lot of work.

Those earrings are fantastic- and the perfect sparkle for the outfit! It's been dreadfully muggy lately...makes me want fall NOW.
Oh, I know it - I was doing some weeding this morning, and even though the temperature wasn't too high, I still felt like I was going to DIE from the humidity! (Admittedly, this could also be because I am a huge wimp.)

Love the hair! Is it just pinned up?
Thanks! Yes, it's just sort of twisted up into a semi-bun and bobby-pinned. I'd hoped to get a picture of it from the back, but we had to race inside because the rain picked up!

Love the outfit! Especially the red top! :)
those earrings - love when you pull 'em out! so pretty.
Gorgeous, love the bright red on you! So excited to see so much of that color this fall. My name is Emily too, so I've very excited to have found your blog and be following you now :) :)

This outfit is beautiful. So simple, but striking!
We definitely know all about storms here. The weather has been foul all day - just sheets of rain. Hello, autumn!
You look fantastic in this outfit! Those earrings are the icing on the cake.
A simple outfit? Sure. A boring outfit? Not even close. I love that bright red on you, and the earrings really make it feel put together. I need to pierce my ears...
I love the dramatic quality of the earrings and the red of the tank with this otherwise simple outfit. It's such a great combo.
Word on the crickets. I've been a total blog slacker lately. Real life=no blog life, and i'm okay w that. :)
And now, 100 days late, I will comment on this post. I LOVE it. Those earrings? YES. And that blouse? POIFECT.
Hi,
I know this post is old, but curious where you bought your watch?
thanks,
linda
