1. prairie drop waist dress (perfect to relax, eat & drink in)
2. wedge heels (they have all the height of regular heels without the incline - or stumbling)
3. flat sandals (just in case walking in heels becomes too painful and I start to hobble)

Chicago Weekend Outfit
I think this would be a great outfit (and not dumpy tourist) for visiting museums or sightseeing.
1. v-neck sweater
2. camera necklace (an actual digital camera- super cute I think)
3. wool shorts (My sister-in-law gave be the best advice for buying short shorts, buy them a size too big. They don't ride up, are a more flattering fit for the average woman's leg and in case you want to eat, they remain comfortable.)
4. ballet flats
5. black tote

One more stretchy pant day option. Comfortable and casual but not frumpy and dumpy.

2. ruffle cardigan
3. lightweight trousers

it's been a week, enough already
It finally warmed up over the last week and officially feels like summer; I am over it. I love the sun but I swear I can feel my skin aging after 3 minutes in direct sunlight. I am also less than thrilled with, how after a few hours in the heat, my face looks like I moisturize with Pam Oil Spray. I am ready for cool days, sweater days, scarf days, etc. But not too cold, then my skin starts to resemble the ground in Death Valley........ugh.

Ohm All the Time
As everyone I work with knows, my knee was horribly and traumatically injured. I ever so gracefully, like a swan, fell to the ground in front of almost all my coworkers. I hobbled around, applied ice packs, changed bandages and grossed everyone out with "band aid flashes". Although I was initially embarrassed, it was also a source of office entertainment for nearly a month. The silver lining of the whole ordeal (and necessary for the bandage changes and flashes) was needing to wear wide-legged pants. I was able to wear all my yoga outfits for almost a whole, entire month. Stretchy pants with style! I have to say that, yoga outfits are more dressed up than a normal sweatsuit with all the comfort of pajamas. It was great.
The only real danger with wearing yoga pants all the time is that they don't have a real waist band. I could have gained 20 pounds without ever really knowing it or at least I would be able to maintain a perpetual state of denial until I attempted to put on a pair of jeans. (All is well, my jeans went right on. I only have to deal with my normal level of despair. I predict at least a week of vegetarianism in my near future.) I may have to add yoga outfits to my normal outfit circulation or at least for jazzy weekend wear.
1. cotton soy jacket 2. twisted tee 3. puma ballet flats 4. yoga pants

sweet w.t.j.
1. pink short sleeve cardi
3. cropped boyfriend jean (I have to say that the term "boyfriend jean" bothers me, it implies that the girl wears the same size pants as her boyfriend. I don't care who you are, or how small you are, it never makes a girl feel good.)
