Hello Weekend !

Even though it's been a 3 day work week (after the oft-mentioned beach vacation), I'm still pretty excited the weekend is almost here! Speaking of my week off, while 'beaching' one day (yes, it can be a verb :), I was perusing the June 2010 issue of Lucky magazine. I have to say, it was a pretty great issue (Laura had left it behind from her recent trip to the Keys) filled with all sorts of great tips (some that I am sure will end up in this blog). The article I most loved was titled 'What is your weekend uniform?' The whole concept of 'uniforms' in our personal style absolutely fascinates me. I love that we can have a look, for certain occasion (this one being the weekend) that are our go-to outfits. I am always and forever, searching for mine. Of course we need different looks for different seasons, and this particular article was all about the summer weekend. I particularly loved Lucky accessories editor Julia Kalachnikoff's look which consisted of a summery, sleeveless dress, Derek Lam sunglasses, Birkenstocks and the ubiquitous LL Bean Boat and Tote. So smashing!!

Anyway, I hope you all have a lovely weekend...and make sure it is summery and super stylin!

  1. This post is so great because on my walk in the park with Zeus I was thinking how I couldn't wait to get home, take a shower and put on my pink sun dress. I was thinking that I would have a sun dress policy while working in the soulrun sweatshop for the rest of the summer. What do you think?

  2. Actually I think that is the most awesome thing I have ever heard! I have to say, I would work anywhere that had a pink sundress policy :)

    Actually this article in Lucky made me think of you because I always love your weekend looks. Very sporty-stylish-comfortable. I think that is the perfect look for the weekend!

  4. Ha! So cute Laura!. Well, I have to tell you, I don't have too much planned but my favorite weekend outfit when it's super hot (as it has been these days) has been my some JCrew khaki shorts (that I got a million years ago) and the absolutely awesome seahorse shirt you got for me from Target for my birthday...and my Keen sandals of course. If I have to dress up even a little I wear that Lole skirt (like the one you have) and pink Lole top with Keen MaryJanes.
