18 Jul Shades of Green
Hello Ladies, I was due for a casual day, ( clothing wise) and today was it. Today was one of those days where we decided to go out to a late brunch. Lets just say, our mornings and afternoons kind of blend in together at times
My mornings are usually taken up by starting with the bubble bath and espom salt routine, while playing some swing or jazz in the morning. Brunch is often the large meal with delicious fruity drinks ( belinis or Martinis ( doesn’t matter, as long as they end with an “ini” I am usually set :-), and later we may have a small meal and/or snack. I wake up in the morning and sometimes there are sounds from my stomach, I think I don’t even recognize. The translation is all of the same: I;m Hungry. So we head to one of our favorite brunch places, Bonefish Grill, and order a craving I have had for over a month, Eggs Benedict with asparagus, along with a freshly muddled Watermellon Martini and some coffee. My husband and I order the same, yet he basically likes the egg very runny and I like mine practically hard boiled. The waitress’ name was “Summer”, which I think is pretty unique, and all well and good, because I am not good at remembering names. Unless they are dogs.. that is another story… Another hot day, in the 90s, as July is often the hottest month in Charlotte, NC or the Carolinas for that matter. I decided to be a bit more casual today, as I have been dressing up in more dressy attire and just felt like wearing this green ensemble of green printed shorts with a hint of mint in the corner. This, of course, is what I bring out with the top, a wrap mint top, which accentuates the waist. Since I was going with mainly a green theme, I wore my Clark Artisan shoes, my “foot pillows”, I like to call them, as it really feels like you are stepping on one, as well as my green sparkly necklace and matching earrings. Enjoy your weekend! Jess xo
Shorts: LOFT ( 3 yrs ago), top ( Ann Taylor similar), Shoes: Clark Artisan,( different color on sale!) Handbag: LV Damier Speedy, Necklace and Earrings: Jewel Box ( 2013)

Posted at 18:13h, 19 JulyJess, this day sounds like a dream. Brunch is also one of my favorite meals, especially during the lazy days of summer. Your shades of green are awesome and surprisingly blends so well together. Love your ‘foot pillows’, how great to have comfort and style all in one. Have a wonderful weekend, cute lady.
