D.C. Day 1

September 9, 2015 by jessica 14 Comments

Floral-Dress-and-Sneakers-1v2

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!

Blue Tips

Dee-Elle-Smocked-Swing-Dress-2

Over the weekend, we headed south to Louisville. We had visited the city twice before and checked off the major sights, so a quick weekend trip was just enough time to visit our favorite haunts, explore local boutiques (I bought an opalescent and brass vase from Scout), try out new bars (Meta had the best craft cocktails), and new-to-us restaurants. It was also my first full weekend without the boot since May! I felt pretty sassy in my Jack Purcell sneakers after a 21c hotel employee told me I had “nice blue tips.”

This dress was a $29 sale find at Nordstrom and it was perfect for the steamy weather in Kentucky. It’s lightweight, fairly breathable, and didn’t wrinkle in my travel bag. The lining is a bit smaller than the overlay, so you’re not at risk of revealing too much in a light breeze. I heeded the advice to size up.
