This Charming Life by Kaelah Bee

Okay, so today is really only appropriate day to post this outfit (from weeks ago!) because the high is only going to be 77. Wanna guess about this weekend?! 97! Ninety-seven degrees! With like 100% humidity! Sometimes I have to ask myself if Tennessee is worth it in the summer haha I know it gets like 110* by now in places like the southwest, but the humidity is honestly what kills. I feel like I'm such a hermit in summer and winter. Anyway, this is one of those outfits where I really kind of hate it after looking at it, and I cringe that I walked around like that for several hours ya know? I mean, there's nothing fundamentally wrong with the pairing, but I just don't care for it. I don't know, maybe I'm sharing to show that sometimes I hate what I throw together haha.

My closet spans the width of my entire office, about 15', and is hidden by walls on both sides of my French doors. I sometimes take advantage of those little nooks to shove things like my printer, a bunch of craft supplies, and my Jeffrey Campbell box collection (the only shoe boxes I can't seem to get rid of... maybe I should put them in storage). These photos are a little embarrassing to share thanks to the clutter, but at least they're honest I guess haha. I promise I don't belong on an episode of Hoarders!

Anyway, I picked up this dress many many moons ago at Ross (just like basically everything else I own), and this cardigan is about 2 years old from Target. I bought every color Target had of these cardigans and I still wear every single one. They're perfect! Not too thick, not too thin, perfect material, length and I love the ruffle detail. I wish I could find more! All of the cardigans now are too stretchy and thin. The belt was a new-but-thrifted find and the ring is Betsey Johnson. (Kintage has a replica in their store.) The ring matches Pipkin perfectly. Now I just need to get the English Bulldog one for Georgia!
