Trenches Ahead

I was on my way to Katie's apartment after class this overcast morning when I saw a sign amidst road construction that read "Trenches Ahead".  Now that we're bloggers, I thought that would be a totally clever and appropriate place to have today's photoshoot, but I don't know how well that would go down with the construction workers/rest of traffic.

I suppose the lush green trees weren't that bad of a backdrop for today's outfit photos!

On Katie- jacket: Nordstrom; shirt: Goodwill (then monogrammed!); jeans: Gap; flats: Steve Madden

On Courtney- trench: Banana Republic



blouse: jcp; jeans: Gap; loafers: Goodwill



watch: Michael Kors; necklace: Kate Spade
 Embracing true St. Louis style in the words of Reese Witherspoon, "My rule is, if it's not moving – monogram it."


watch: Macy's




Promptly afterwards we scooted our booties to Hy-Vee for a much needed brunch of pancakes, fruit, eggs, bacon, and iced coffee!  Afterwards it would've been ideal napping weather but we're adults now (sigh), and class/work called.

If only accounting homework could be as fun as blogging.

xoxo
Courtney & Katie

P.S.- If college boys see you taking blog pics, just keep calm and carry on. Not awkward at all.

  3. I really like the idea of monogramming a thrifted shirt! I just ordered a plain ole short-sleeve button up on sale at Lands End and the monogramming was only $6 ... I couldn't resist :)
