Sweatshirt dress + spots

Sunday, April 21, 2013


So I've been a little neglectful of le blog lately; I missed Friday Quick Takes two weeks in a row (hopefully planning on rectifying that this week after my surgery exam! prayers please!), What I Wore Wednesday last week, and last Sunday I even missed WIWS for the first time in months! I also haven't responded to a lot of sweet blogger comments, and for that I'm sincerely sorry (but I have read and enjoyed every single one).

I blame all of this on surgery. I just finished my surgical specialty week, which was equally awe-inspiring and exhausting. I spent two days in cardiothoracic surgery and got to be in my first open heart, one day in plastic surgery where I assisted in some reconstructions for breast cancer patients, and the last part of the week in neurosurgery where I saw an awake craniotomy (but more on that in a later post).

I have also been studying nonstop (lots of gastrointestinal loveliness a.k.a. butts and guts) and I'm starting to go a little crazy (I don't know how I did this every weekend during my first and second year of medical school). I have to guiltily admit that I am way too excited to go to Mass tonight because of the break from studying (and of course I should be excited to go to Mass because it's Mass).



And on to the outfit. It all started with this pin and then I watched this sweatshirt dress forevah until it went on sale. The size left on sale was slightly too big for me, but I justified it because a) it is super comfy b) and I can still wear it to the hospital c) its looseness is disguised with a cardi and d) most importantly, I think it will be a great maternity dress when the time comes. You can never be too prepared right? Also, I am pretty sure that this cardigan is 40% off right now and it doesn't get much better than a pattern that is a blend of polka dots and animal print. I almost added my green belt to the mix, but sometimes simpler is better.



Scarf: old, from fashionABLE (created by women in Africa!)
Cardi: Loft (40% off!)
Dress: Madewell (when it was way on sale)
Tights: Target (for $2!)

Happy Sunday! Linking up of course with Fine Linen and Purple. Also joining Jenny, Doranda, Style Elixir, and The Pleated Poppy.
