A Day in the Life Too... a blog about modest style

A 30-something mom's blog about modest style, DIY stuff, and limiting dessert. Just kidding. We eat dessert first around here.

Book Club Attire (and why you can't necessarily trust someone just because they're in a book club)

I'm going to my first book club meeting tonight. The book club is an established entity, but I'm a shiny new member this year.
 
red patent flats: Kohl's (maybe?)
b&w striped maxi skirt: eBay
coral v-neck tee: American Eagle Outfitters
denim jacket: Gap
cluster necklace: Downeast Outfitters
 
I must admit, I'm a little nervous. I don't know how many of the ladies I'll know.
 
 
For security blanket purposes, I'm wearing my comfiest knitwear. But as a nod to the societal nature of the event, I tried to accessorize appropriately.
 
 
Because nothing says "literary pundit" like a girl in pjs and a bobble necklace.
 
 
Wish me luck. And happy Thursday!

What an amazing fabulous necklace. Love stripes also.

@Imogen - The clusters on this necklace actually broke off the original, so I restrung it on some stretchy plastic cording. The original necklace chain actually caught and pulled my back neck hairs, so this is an improvement. Fortuitous!

@Tina - I'll never turn down "chic." Thanks.
@Abby - There's something about a bold yet classic stripe that makes me feel in control of my life. :)
@Lenya - Nicest comment of the week. Thank you!
@Tara - You're the only one who's mentioned the flats, but honestly? They're among my favorite footwear. You've got a good eye, if I may say so. :)
