Rewarding Outfits
Rewarding Mail
We reviewed a package from Quarterly Co, shared our black and white stationary wishlist, and learned how to send that perfect piece of fan mail.
Rewarding Movies
We dove into surprise 60s hit Beach Party, looking at the campy film and imitating it's style.
Rewarding Plans
This month has been an intense one for me, I took multiple, graduate level classes, which left me with a bit of tunnel vision. I'm sure my endless conversations about perfectionism, underachievement and administration was just riveting for The Boy, but honestly, when I was breathing in the stuff there just wasn't room for much else. I even travelled to Iowa for classes!
To break up the monotony of scholarly articles, I read (try Peter Pan if you're looking for something charming) and, after reading this Q+A about five things in every woman's closet, I dreamt about this list of what I'm shopping for. Honestly, I didn't get much with done from my Why don't you... list, but a girl can dream, right? Hope your summer is going swimmingly!

Your outfits were simply perfect this month! Loved the one with the polka dot shorts ^_^ I have found Un-Fancy through another blogging friend a while back and have been hooked as well! Not that I'd do a capsule wardrobe myself, but because I had most of the items she wears in my wardrobe and can turn to her for inspiration when I don't know what to wear :-) xo
Reply DeleteI'm really fascinated with the idea of a capsule wardrobe but don't know if I really could do it either. But I do love Un-Fancy and the simple style presented there.
DeleteSounds like you had a busy month! I'm counting down to the new season of Doctor Who, too :)
Reply DeleteI just went through Un-Fancy as well. WOW! Girl's got something figured out.
Reply DeleteAlso- if I haven't already commented on the gingham + polka combo, that is perfection and could not look any sweeter. I love it!

I love a good rewarding outfit- and the three you chose are definitely top notch! :) And this summer went by WAY too fast- i'm not ready for fall yet! And that "5 ways to shop smarter" post you shared was absolutely genius- i loved her points.
