Polka Dots Make Everyone Happy!

Good morning!  Today is a bittersweet day for me.  I dropped my son off in the infant room of daycare for the very last time this morning.  I can’t believe that my baby boy is no longer a baby!  Both of my kids will be moving up to the next classroom after our vacation.  At least the cost of the daycare will go down a little! 

My daughter Ava’s classroom is holding their end of year party this afternoon and then I’m meeting a friend for a cocktail, so I needed to wear an outfit that I will not flash everyone in when I sit down in the tiny chairs, but still nice enough for an adult outing afterward.  I chose my Ann Taylor Pink Polka Dot Pencil Skirt, Size 2, which is currently on final sale here for $38.93.  If you are in between sizes, size down for this skirt.  It runs a little big.  Yesterday I wore an Ann Taylor Pencil Skirt in black in a Size 4 and it fit the same as this Size 2.  Last month I paired this skirt with a sheer top with a tie-neck (look can be found here).  This time, I decided to pair the skirt with a classic white button down cuffed sleeve shirt.  The shirt is from Ann Taylor, Size 4 (closet) and it’s one of my favorite button downs because the darting at the waist provides a slim fit.  I prefer a tailored look and hate when button downs billow out!  I accessorized with a white leather belt (closet), gold earrings, Pink Bubble Necklace (here on Etsy for $13) and neutral Franco Sarto Strappy Sandals (closet). 

Have a great day!  Thanks for stopping by!
