At the station

I took these photos with Meg last week while we were in Westport, checking out Roundabout's summer sale. The whole store was half off, leading to prices over 80% off retail on hundreds of designer duds. While Meg had been wisely not spending her monthly budget so that she could splurge on some great pieces, I made a more modest purchase, a leaf print tank by Joie for $20.

We didn't head into downtown Westport to avoid the temptation of all the high street stores (J.Crew and Madewell are literally next door to one another), and I wanted to check out a chocolate and coffee shop by the train station, so we ended up taking photos on the stairs to the platform. Wish I were heading to the city -- though this weekend I'm actually going up to the Cape for my sister in law's baby shower!

  4. That shirt and skirt were seriously made for each other! There are a few stores that I've been avoiding for a while now for exactly those reasons....

  6. Oh my words you look like a model in these photos Lydia! I love the pineapple and stripes. Sounds like a really fun day and good for you two for avoiding temptation. Chocolate and coffee are always a good distraction for me. ;-)

  16. Avoiding downtown to deliberating stay away from J. Crew and Madewell? Probably a smart move. Plus, a cute train station is the perfect spot for outfit photos. And speaking of outfit photos, I have to say that you have been absolutely knocking them out of the park this summer. Especially when it comes to pineapple print. Truth: I am not on board with the pineapple trend. But every time you wear something with pineapple on it, I find myself reconsidering and thinking things like how elegant those little gold fruits can look on some people. Masterful styling.

    PS: I wish I had just jetted off to Spain for my photos today. Alas... Stuck in North American until 2015. Unless the money tree I planted starts growing something, that is ;)
