I loved these pinstripes as soon as I saw this top. What you can’t really see on the stock photos that there is a metallic gold stripe, too. It just made this blouse even better in person. The buttons along the sleeve are such a great detail.
As a busy mom who wants to look put together, but doesn’t always have much time, tops like this are perfect for an effortless chic look. Throw your hair up, put on this top, and wear flats for being out and about with the kids. It would also be a great piece for work-wear by wearing a skirt or adding a blazer.
This week is the week for: repairs. Friday the water filtration system in our home stopped working and, of course, the company is closed on the weekends. Water has leaked out of the machine and damaged our hardwood floors. And I miss my reverse osmosis water! The repair man comes today.
Saturday night, when I woke up with Cora, her room was freezing and I could feel cold air blowing out of her vent. Long story short, our heater for that end of the house is not working. Thankfully my husband has connections with a heater repair man and he was kind enough to come out on Sunday to look at the problem. Of course it needs a new part which he had to wait until Monday (yesterday) to get. Well, the part was out of stock, so we went all day with out heat, again. He’s also coming out today, with the needed part, in hopes of fixing our heater.
And lastly, my car. It has been randomly not starting. As if the battery is dead (but it’s not) and has made me late (or later than my usual late) too many times. I’ve also been stranded away from home. I have an appointment to have it looked at on Thursday.
Thanks for reading and I hope you are having a great week!
