Getting Things Done






 anorak: patterson kincaid | buffalo check shirt: madewell | leather leggings: forever 21 (craving these) | belt: j crew (similar) | booties: forever 21 (similar) | bracelets: j crew, tiffany & co | ring: forever 21 (similar) |  bag: louis vuitton

Errand running outfits are a delicate balance of comfort and polish. On the one hand, you want to be able to move comfortably through everywhere you need to be (I hit Target, Trader Joes and our local grocer, Publix, nearly every time we're out). On the other hand, you want to be presentable enough so that when you run into people you know (and you WILL run into people) you still feel confident enough to actually say, "hi" instead of ducking behind the nearest aisle. I find that leather leggings are the most practical piece that I own! They're dressed up without being stuffy and seriously comfy. Add a little bit of sparkle and all-purpose outerwear and you're good to go.

The weather here has been crazy (you must be tired of hearing that!) and we seem to have reached a stalemate with Mr. Winter. Whether or not it will ever turn to Spring, I don't know.

What's your go-to look for getting things crossed off your to-do list?

p.s. Don't forget to check out my Stella & Dot trunk show and make a purchase to be entered to win the Julep bangle!
