Yesterday was spent running errands and getting organized in terms of my upcoming departure to Germany. Since I don’t know how soon after my arrival in Munich I will be able to get a bike, I’m relishing my last few days cycling about town to the post office, the campus library, and the grocery store. I found this jersey skirt and these wedges very easy to bike in: the stretchy-ness of the fabric allows for easy movement while the weight of this heavier jersey prevents it from flying up and exposing me to the world.

There is not much else to say about yesterday’s “day” look other that it was incredibly comfortable while still managing to appear put-together. I love it when those two criteria come together. S.

I love academichic and have so much fun reading your posts! Congrats on your recent marriage.

Just wanted to note that in this picture (but not the matching “night” one), the shoes appear robin’s-egg blue to my eye–and I love the look! I know they’re gray, but it makes me wonder if you will end up someday with a pair of robin’s-egg blue shoes.

I’m not quite sure what I like so much about this look, but I do love it!
