Endnotes:
This morning I flew back to academichic central, where I got off my plane and was shortly picked up by A. for a much needed coffee and catch-up session at our favorite coffee shop. You may remember this black dress from last week, when I wore it for my flight to my parents’ house and from my discussion on travel comfortable clothing. I wore the same jersey dress to fly back in for all the reasons I mentioned then, and once more, finished off the look with a cozy pashmina (read: pashmina on the ground, plane blanket in the air). This time, I zipped through security even quicker with these easy to slip on and off sandals, leaving me plenty of time to peruse the magazine selection before taking off.
This outfit worked great for a day of travel and flying for several reasons: it’s comfortable, it’s black and thus pretty stain resistant, I didn’t need to remove any hardware to get through the metal detector, and it looked chic enough to walk off the plane and head out in public for a day of plans. And last but not least, it conforms perfectly to our week’s review session of neutrals with a pop. Now that’s what I call multi-function! S.

I wish I was going somewhere! Have you had the pleasure of meeting baby e. yet? If not, have fun and let all three of them know that your readers send their best wishes!!

I think I’ve been a lurker till now – love the blog! I’m inspired every day. I’d forgotten that Target sells cute, cheap, reasonable quality shoes, and you’ve gotten me hooked again.

Thanks, Sal and Marie!
Clare – I have not yet gotten to see baby e. since he was born while I was gone, and I’m so excited to get to meet him soon! I will convey the well wishes! :) Thank you!

I just started reading this blog when I stumbled upon the “Packing for a Research Year Abroad” post through google. I loved how organized you were with the packing and I loved the pictures. I am attempting to do the same thing as I pack for a year of teaching in Moscow. I am using that post as a basis for my packing b/c I am one that ALWAYS packs too much.
I could not stop reading this blog once I started. I love it that people love clothes just as much as I do and don’t have to spend a fortune to make it look good!
Thanks for the wonderful ideas and tips!

That scarf looks so soft and fun. Almost makes me long for scarf season again. Almost.

Love it! That scarf is a gorgeous shade of blue.
