I know my last entry was such a long time ago and I've been a bad blogger! One of my very best friends has been going through quite an ordeal this week. She had open heart surgery and she's only in her 30's. She was born with a congenital heart defect (bicuspid valve) and the aortic stenosis had become so severe that the valve needed replacing. So, she went under the knife last week and I have been visiting her in the hospital nearly every day since. Heart defects are one of the most common birth defects and heart disease affects women more than most people think. She did fine in surgery and was actually allowed to come home today! So, I'm so glad things are going well! I was very worried about her going in (tried not to show it), but am so glad things are going well and I see her improving every day :)
Needless to say, I've been behind on blogging. I have not, however, been behind on dressing. I had a lovely exchange on the
Effortless Anthropologie Trade Market. I purchased a
Precious Materials Cardigan (been chasing it forever and a day!) and when I got the package, I also got this cute little blue plaid top as a bonus! I'm so lucky! It's super cute!

Today is probably the hottest day of the week. I sucked it up and turned on all of our window AC units, driving up my electric bill this month. But since I'm in charge of that bill and chose not to roast, it's okay. I refuse to be hot anymore. Anyone else in the middle of a heatwave?
Ohh outdoor photo! You look lovely Kay :) No worries about the not posting, I too have been lacking, just too much stuff going on right now to deal with first. Heh, not heatwave here, it is barely even summer it feels like. I remember last year we were having a version of a heatwave for the northwest, but now it is the opposite.
ReplyDeleteSorry about your best friend Kay, but it's good to read that she is recovering well.
ReplyDeleteYour outfit is so cute. I've never seen that top before. I really like the ruffles and plaid.
I have this blouse too! I love having the names of my clothes so I had to comment to tell you it is called the Le Rosey Blouse. I am so sorry about your friend- I hope she heels quickly. Also, I own this skirt too so maybe I'll have to put them together :). You look great!
ReplyDeleteJess, if you want, I'll send some of our heat your way! LOL
ReplyDeleteShe is doing so well, thank you! I'm very impressed with her!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for letting me know! You should totally do this pairing too! It's a winner! :)
