Dress Urban Outfitter/ Satchel Kate Spade / Rings F21
Here I am, enjoying the last glimpses of sun before the fall skies take over completely. I braided a tiny strand of my hair, threw on a maxidress, and grabbed my mint Kate Spade satchel. Seeing this dress is a total throwback to the Faneuil Hall Marketplace in Boston! Here is the story behind it. I was dressed up formally after touring a startup space during a Babson field trip. I didn’t know we were going to the Quincy Market afterwards, and didn’t bring my wallet with me. I only had about ten dollars in cash on me! I wasn’t sure how to spend the rest of the day wallet-less in a shopping area, but I knew I wanted to change my outfit, because I hated walking around in dress pants and a blazer. I went to an Urban Outfitters store and looked for a fun summery dress to spend the day in. I found this maxidress in my size, tried it on, and loved it! I bought it with an UO gift card that I happened to have in my bag, and changed into it immediately. Even though I spent most the day alone, (and a portion sitting in a cafe writing in my journal) I had a good time regardless. I think it was partly due to loving how this dress swished and sweeped as I walked through the streets.
Putting it on now instantly reminds me of that day in the Faneuil Hall Marketplace. I just love the pieces of clothing in my closet that have stories and fun memories behind them. It’s one of my favorite parts of wearing certain outfits. 🙂
