So this is what I wore Sunday to Masses and running around.  My mother-in-law and I went to a local plant sale and I picked up some herbs and flowers for the porch—so excited to get some pots and soil and make our balcony summery!!  Not that I know anything about plants—check in within a few weeks and I’m sure I’ll have forgotten to water them or the cats will have eaten everything or something.



This is one of my two purchases from the new Zac Posen collection for Target.  I’ve read a lot of mixed reviews and I have to say I agree.  While I loved this dress and the other (soon to be debuted!) piece that I purchased, I really didn’t like everything else.  And, as many have pointed out, it runs super small.  I went up one size in this dress and in all honesty, could probably have stood to go up one more size.
I’m also trying out the socks & sandals trend—much to the confusion of my students at Mass this morning.  While I think it’s cute overall, I think it cuts off my legs and leaves me with a bit of a stumpy effect.  I also had to throw on an old pair of socks (with dogs & the word “woof” on them, but nevermind that) because I didn’t have any cute eyelet or sheer ones.  So maybe those would work better?

What do you think?  Can you rock the socks & sandals?
