Talk about a wardrobe remix — everything in this post down to the kimono top is old school. Because it’s not sparkly and new, I wasn’t super enthused about the look. But, it IS everyday Kate. And a rad photo filter didn’t hurt either.
It’s no secret that I like my clothes at least a little loose and flowy. Skin tight clothes freak me out in the last couple of years — except jeans, of course. You won’t catch this kid wearing a bandage dress any time soon, that’s for sure! Tight = uncomfortable. This kimono style top fits with my philosophy of relaxed and fidget-less, so it remains a standby in a closet in constant rotation.

Totally obsessing over this bleached denim chambray shirt from ASOS. I love the cut and fit, the seaming and snaps, and how easy it feels. In fact, I took it for a test drive Sunday, and then wore it again on Monday. {Should I admit that?}
My weekend was filled with lots of delightful things: reading, meditation, meeting some sweet baby chicks, farmers’ markets, sample sales, and even a movie date. And of course, lots of cooking. If you follow me on Twitter, you know that for the last couple of months I’ve been on a new diet for the crohn’s. It’s a hell of a lot of work, but I feel better, so it’s hard to complain about it.
Really, it means that food has become a MUCH BIGGER priority in my life that it ever has been in the past. I have to dedicate time to meal planning, grocery shopping, and cooking for myself {which is something I pretty much loathe doing — feels like such a waste of time to cook for one person}. Anyhow, lots of cooking every weekend now.
Also, I decided that I’m going to bring back Little Lessons. Stay tuned!

Just in case you thought that bloggers never wear the same thing twice: I wore this shirt last week and thought I was happy with the styling until I remembered I had this navy vest. Then I promptly decided my outfit was subpar compared to the vision in my head. So a few days later, I wore the top again, styled in a completely different way.
Can we talk about the vest? Yes? Okay. Impulse purchase from STYLE/STALK that I couldn’t quite figure out how I was going to work into my wardrobe, but you know I’m a sucker for a good vest. I immediately loved the structure and detail and minimalistic vibe. I was nervous about it being one size fits all, but I like my clothes on the looser side anyhow, so rolled the dice and clicked buy. So happy that I did!
