Stripes Again

I am admitting to chaos again in my life. Still in midst of a massive move and too frazzled and busy to even think about clothes. (If you follow me on Instagram, you can tell that I am not so far along.) The truck came today so... progress... I have been wearing the same thing nearly every day: old jeans with holes in them and a striped boatneck tee. It is a little hot for long sleeves, but the mosquitos are a nightmare right now – better hot than bitten. In the process of packing up my closet, I am especially aware of how many of these tees I own. The stripe stack is high, but I promise I wear them all, and they are serving me especially well this week.


kind of wish i could keep it empty


So I will direct you to the last time I wrote about this tee, because everything I said is still true. Except now we have so many more colors now, including a handful of new ones for fall. (The green and navy one will be my next, once I have a place to put it. And, once I have caught my breath, a new closet to take pictures in! The light in the old one was dreamy, but this one is a little bigger. More space for stripes. See you on the other side.
