Anthropologie's Limabird Cardigan by Tabitha

Eyelet skirt (size 6): J.Crew, summer 2012

Do I match my lush green background or what? I can't tell you how excited I get when I can grab an item I love at Anthropologie on second markdown. This cardigan is like nothing else in my closet, and I adore the details and colors. It's sold out online but it is marked from $128 to $40 right now if you can find it in-store.

What I don't adore? The fact that I ripped a big ol' hole on the side of this skirt on the rough, 100 year old door jamb of my front door. Noooooo! This is only the 3rd time I have worn this skirt! Luckily my mom has a good friend who can work miracles with tailoring so hopefully it's not a goner. It's totally my luck of late that I would do something so clumsy though!

I like to keep things light and fun on this blog usually. It is a personal style blog, after all. Nothing too serious, you know? But lately my life has gotten a little stressful. My middle son, age 6, was recently diagnosed with dyslexia and ADHD. We have to make some pretty important decisions about his future and school over the next few weeks, and it's completely overwhelming to me, and a little sad. I don't want him to struggle his whole life, and I want to do what is best for him. Sometimes it sucks to have to be the responsible grown-up and make such life-altering decisions! So if I've been quiet lately...that's why. Just a lot on my mind.

Thanks for reading!
