You do "skin and simplicity" with panache.&nbsp;</p> <p>#2, 4, 5 and 7 are my faves. Excellent fit and&nbsp;proportions.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-14-07-20-25-more-simple-summer-dressing#post-1315334 Sat, 26 Jul 2014 15:01:35 +0000 Elizabeth P 1315334@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It's been pretty hot this week, so skin and simplicity have been the order of the day.&nbsp; </p> <p>As I mentioned in a previous post, my family took off for the week, so I was mainly hanging out at home, cleaning, purging, sorting, in clothes that were 10-15 years old, that are loose, baggy, and that I could get dusty and sweat in.&nbsp; You will NOT see photos of those :).&nbsp; Here's what I wore when I "cleaned up" for errands, or to go to work.<br />1.&nbsp; Cotton dress for errands on Sunday.&nbsp; <br />2.&nbsp; Pleione split neck top,VC tube skirt, Doc Marten sandals - a repeat, but different shoes.<br />3.&nbsp; Pleione wrap top.&nbsp; Another repeat.&nbsp; Figured I'd post it just to show I DO repeat!<br />4.&nbsp; Tribal sun dress, with and without topper. Toms sandals.&nbsp; This topper was actully on my "hmm, do I really wear this enough/need it" list, but it goes so well with this dress, I like the way it follows the lines of the pattern.&nbsp; And considering it can be scrumpled up in a ball in my purse as a "put on if it gets chilly" piece, it's staying.<br />5.&nbsp; Libra top, Costco capri's, SE Trina sandals<br />6.&nbsp; VERY old ON tee, Gap BF camo shorts, errands.<br />7-8 "Date night" with a girl friend - dinner and a movie.&nbsp; JCrew tank, Lululemon pants, JCrew linen sweater, and the Toms sandals.&nbsp; Which are turning out to be workhorses, much to my surprise.</p> <p>That's it!&nbsp; Comments on anything and everything are welcome!&nbsp; </p>
