Back from our family road trip (from Nebraska to the Virginia coast), and had a wonderful time.

Now it's time to recover

I did have a packing post, but at the last minute before leaving, it got hot, so I added a bunch of warm-weather clothing, and was glad that I did - it was most of what I wore.

Since returning, I've realized that most of my clothes from last summer aren't things that I want to wear this year, so I have a shopping list!

Here's what I've worn since returning, and some Keep/Toss questions:

#1 wearing today: silky track pants that aren't at all slouchy. Keep or Toss these? They have cargo pockets, and drawstring bottoms. Do they look current? Should I keep or toss? How to style them? (Worn with black and white woven tee that was a vacation workhorse, but will likely only last this season). These sandals are needing to be replaced quite badly.

#2 blue and studs with black jeans, rolled. I would have liked this better with baggy jeans, I think. And I kind of think the studs make this top dated. Do they?

#3 boyfriend jeans with chevron striped top. I liked this combo. These boyfriends are wearing out though. I'll miss them. The top, too, is starting to pill already, so will probably only last this season.

#4 burgundy jeans with slouchy light weight sweater (cream with rose-metallic stripes). I noticed a tiny hole in this sweater while wearing it, so unless I can repair it without making it visible, it's out too.

On the one hand, it's good to wear my clothes until they wear out. On the other hand, I wish they lasted longer.
