We’re back from our mini getaway to Washington, D.C.! As always, the trip felt too short, but we still managed to pack in a lot of sightseeing: the National Building Museum, the National Museum of Natural History, the National Gallery of Art, shopping in Georgetown, a Nationals baseball game, the Supreme Court, the National Zoo, Embassy Row (our hotel was in the thick of it), and the Library of Congress. Whew! The Metro was undergoing maintenance, which led to long delays on many of the lines. We ended up walking most places (or taking an Uber when the heat and humidity were making us delirious), so let’s just say I’m looking forward to a day at the office to let my feet recover!

ASTR-Floral-Dress-5

When sneakers were popular last year, I didn’t think I would be able to pull off wearing them with dresses. Well, thank goodness for a broken foot to push me out of my sartorial comfort zone because I kind of adore the dressy-meets-casual combination. It’s an effortless weekend look that can go from the farmers’ market to an afternoon walk through the botanical garden and then out for evening drinks. That said, I’m still counting down the days (14!) until I can kick off my sneakers and slip back into sandals!
