This watch
These t-straps
And this vintage dress (which has already sold, sadly)

Such an easy cotton dress to throw on and go ... with a sweet ruffle --
You could not ask for a more effortless skirt -- I could see pairing this with lots of different things, and getting use out of it for work as well as the weekend.

I love the contrasting stripes on this 'cinnamon stick' dress from Lulu's. And the black ribbon sash at the waist gives a nice contrast. And it's only $38... not too shabby!

Final sale at LOFT
LOFT is definitely trying to move their summer merch out of the stores ... the other day when I popped into one of their midtown locations, all the clearance had been pushed up to the front of the store, and the back of the store was EMPTY.

Joan Holloway style at KMart
Y'all know how obsessed I am with Mad Men ... well, I was perusing K-Mart of all places recently and noticed oodles and oodles of dresses that scream Joan Holloway --
This cap sleeve dress with the detailing at the neck is straight out of Joan's wardrobe from season one. Totally gorgeous.
I love the belt on this plaid dress. This is such a perfect dress for the office.
As the show gets into the mid-1960s with this season, I think this floral print neck tie dress is exactly the sort of thing we'll be seeing Joan in.
The collar and button detail on this floral print dress is so mod, I love it. Likewise with this geometric print number.
The turquoise blue hue of this belted a-line dress would look amazing with Joan's red hair and porcelain skin.
Joan could totally rock this taffeta sheath dress with rosette detail for a night out on the town.

Don't forget . . .

Red Thursday sale at Red Envelope
Red Envelope, which is probably one of my favorite go-to places for gifts (I just got this awesome picnic backpack for my adventurous cousin and his new wife), has a Red Thursday sale where one item is drastically discounted for one day only.
Today's item is a pretty cute looking monogrammed birthstone necklace ... a lot more hip than most birthstone necklaces with a hint of preppy.

Fall preview at Fred Flare
The thought of fall just makes me excited right now. This may sound crazy, but I am pretty sure that summer is my least favorite season of all. I'd even take winter over it.

Fashion in 1964
