and goes for comfort.

My second so rudely ignored item is a strapless Susana Monaco dress, last worn to my sorority's semi-formal, circa 2006. I believe this was the night my then boyfriend/now husband fell asleep in our stairwell. This was also the night I made him he so graciously offered to walk home in his socks through ice and slush because I couldn't possibly take one more step in my heels. COLLEGE!

This dress is very clingy and I'm pretty sure people look down upon tube tops sans bras in the office, so I decided to try it as a longer skirt instead. I really liked the look and was super comfortable all day, except you could totally see my t-shirt line and such things bother me to no end. Next time I shall have to invest in a bodysuit.

Remember my mixing patterns project? Turns out I totally forgot to post the other outfit I bought for this challenge...old age hits fast, and it hits hard.

I've actually worn this outfit quite a few times in the past couple of months- both pieces are so comfortable, easy to pull on and easy to pack (a must for all of the weekend trips I've been taking). It was a no-brainer to throw this in my suitcase for my visit to NYC to see my lovely sister (seester!!!!) this past weekend.

Photos are compliments of said lovely sister, taken on the rooftop of her Brooklyn apartment building. Thanks and love you Erins!
