Weather Woman

When I was a kid, another one of my dream careers (briefly) was to be a weather lady. Not because I was interested in science or how weather worked. I just wanted to look pretty and learn how to point to a green screen in swooping motions while reading the teleprompter. 

I would also like to point out that I was obsessed with the Weather Channel when I was a kid. OBSESSED. I was terrified of thunderstorms and would watch the weather incessantly to make sure there wasn't any bad weather coming our way. When there was--oh boy. Especially when that red bar would scroll across the screen accompanied by that God-awful beeping noise. Forget it. I was a mess. It got to the point where my parents actually had to block the Weather Channel from me. True story.

All this is to say my outfit yesterday made me feel like something, but I couldn't quite put my finger on it. My first thought was kind of presidential, with the black dress and pearls. And then I thought maybe news reporter? But I figured it out when I got home--does this outfit make me look like a weather lady?

This great blazer was a lunchtime Goodwill find. It fits a little loose for my liking, so that means I wanted to pair it with a slightly more form-fitting dress underneath. 

Also--I LOVE that our new deck --or excuse me, private blog photo taking area -- catches a peek of the morning sun. It really adds to the weather lady theme, right?
