Back from KC

August 5, 2013

Another 10 hours in the car for the reverse trip. It was worth it to meet DH's extended family. Such lovely people. So this is outfit I wore to drive and I had DH snap this photo after only 2 hours of driving
I wanted to wear something comfortable and attractive. I love this tunic (another ON purchase) the colors are black white yellow and citron. It's light as air has just enough shape and volume with nicely shaped shoulders. I have had the shorts for about 3 years or so I picked them up from Sears  and I am wearing bronze ballet flats - I prefer sandals in the summer but when you're driving any comfy shoe will do.

    Ooooh, those flats look fabulously comfy and I love the cheerfulness of your top! :) 

    I am glad that your DH's peeps are nice!

    Gorgeous tunic, I really like the print and yellow is lovely on you!

    Ballet flats are one of my go-to options for footwear when driving - I am always afraid sandals will get caught in the pedals. Very casual and comfy driving outfit - I love the yellow and citron in the tunic!

    Hello gorgeous. It's a crime to look this good when you have to drive for so long, y'know ;-)

    Fresh and pretty! And ideal for a car trip, especially the ballet flats.

    You look very pretty. I'm glad the trip was worth it. Friends who go to Chicago about once a month from KC always take Amtrak as usually less expensive than driving and also a 10 hour trip, but they get the senior rate.

    Very nice! Sometimes it's good to have just a little something covering the arms. Good to have you posting again!

    Super beautiful on you! Love your specs, too, and what a great shirt. It's perfect for driving and family meeting.

    You look so pretty, happy, and relaxed!  Bet the family loved meeting you.  Beautiful top!

  • amiable replied 10 years ago

    Love it!  Great summery look!

     Pil - yep I specifically wanted to wear a top with sleeves because I did not want to get a one armed sunburn from driving. I learned my lesson about that last month when I wore a halter top for a long drive to a friend's going away party. Never again.

    Love it!  Beautfiul top and looks comfortable for the trip!

I am fascinated with the process of getting dressed every day -- to me this is more challenging than getting dressed for a big event because what I wear is dictated by my activities, work environment, and the weather. Living in a climate that guarantees four seasons (or at least two extremes) provides both challenges and inspiration.
