Mission #63, Day 5--Patterned
Patterned flats, or in this case slides, are all the rage and a really fun and interesting way to wear your flats! Personally, when I am in a bind I always grab for these flats. They are fun and super comfy.
There are a lot of August birthdays in my world. My high school best friend Bekey's birthdays was yesterday, another high school best friend Dylan's birthday is today and my brother's birthday is on Tuesday.
I met Dylan and his/our other best friend Chris while I was working at Subway when I was 15. We went to different high schools and definitely hung out with different crowds. Chris and Dylan were in band. They went to church. They followed the rules and liked cars. I was a punk rocker, a smoker and a class ditcher. Had it not been for Subway, we would have NEVER met or hung out.
But we did hang out--almost everyday. We would go for coffee or ride around in Dylan's 1967 Mustang or go on some other crazy adventure. They kept me out of trouble and helped them get into just a little bit of trouble. It was a nice balance.
Every year on my birthday, Dylan is one of the only friends that actually calls me on my birthday to talk to me and tell me happy birthday. It is such a small gesture, but it means so much. In kind, I call him every year on his birthday. Some times we reach each other and some times we leave messages, but the point is that we try to reach out.
So this year on his birthday, I'm going international with it. Happy birthday Dylan! Thanks for being my friend for all of these years!

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
