Capsule wardrobes inspired by art and nature

Halfway finished with the 100 days! I'm still very happy with my dress; last night, I put it into a delicate wash mesh bag and ran it through a load in the machine, on the Delicate cycle. Hung it overnight, steamed it this morning. Brilliant!
love,

Two doctor appointments in 2 days with my mother... But at least we get out to see the absolutely lovely autumn foliage in the parks!

I'm going to be out and about with my 2 favorite people! It's quite cool here, but a robin brooch will help me remember that spring is always right around the corner...

Yesterday - off to the doctor for a shot in my arthritis foot. NOT MY BAD KNEE... sigh...
Today, laundry and working on The Vivienne Files - those posts in the pre-dawn darkness every Monday morning require a bit of planning ahead!

Monday was a quiet day at home, working; yesterday I ran all over the city shopping, getting a hair cut, and getting a mammogram!
Does anybody else have more fun than me? (yes, I'm still wearing a knee brace!)

We took a walk down to the Art Institute - always a joy to the soul! It's a perfect autumn day...

The problem is actually in my back, but the pain is in my knee? I'm not a doctor...
Our weather has finally gotten consistently cool, so I think that I will be wearing lots of black tee shirts or turtlenecks under my dress - sort of like wearing a black long-sleeved dress. Lots of 2nd layer possibilities!

1 day spent with my leg propped up with ice on it, and the next day with an early morning orthopedics appointment! My knee is going to need a lot of therapy...

Good heavens, I forgot about yesterday! It was a pretty regular day - marled black and white tee shirt under my black dress, with my trusty stud earrings, and ballet flats when I wandered around the building...

Busy catching up with a million little projects, as well as our regular blog posts. It's really warm in our apartment today; we face east, and have huge windows - when it's sunny out, it's warm in, no matter what time of year!

I'm not sure that we're going to make it out of the building today; everyone is tired, and we have plenty to do at home!
