Just when I think I'm through the latest wave of produce, something else gets ripe. Late apples are ripening now, and pears are on their heels. Add that to a big work conference (and associated deadlines) coming up in a week, and I'm kinda scarce around here.

Here's my recent WIWs. I'd love to know your thoughts on them!

#1- #2 I finally altered this print shirt into diagonal sleeves. Do they work? Should I just take the sleeves the rest of the way off?

#3 Black tee and newly altered boyfriend jeans. Does the fit look right? Should the cuff be narrower? I thought I'd wear this with the jacked (#5) for an outing that included frigid a/c. But I forgot, and I lived through it.

#5 It's still hot, but I'm in the mood for cooler weather clothes, so I've started to transition despite the heat. I like these white jeans cuffed into boyfriends.

#6 I was much more RATE than I intended. I wanted to try this somewhat polished top with more RATE jeans, and decided to up the 'tomboy' factor with converse. When the day was nearly over, I noticed that my shoes don't match. (And I was out in public, with other homeschool families all day long!). I'm trying to pretend that it was on purpose and that I rocked the look. But they're not even the same size, and I'm a little mortified that I spent the day in public dressed like this.

#7 is an experiment with colors. The top is a dress that, besides being way too short for a dress, is just blah on me. But Angie posted about combining colors, and I felt like it was immediately happier when paired with the springy green shorts. So I wore it today. It kinda looks like a tucked in dress though, so I'm not convinced that it's a keeper.

Hope you all are enjoying the last days of summer!
