Athenista: etsy shops i love

This is one of those weeks (maybe months??) where comfort is king. Blogging does motivate me to be more creative with my wardrobe and appreciate what I have but lawdy if this weather isn't the pits. Totally makes me want to ignore my closet (and showering) altogther and curl up on the couch with a hot chai latte and a sweater blanket. Lucky for you guys (or maybe just my coworkers), I have been pulling clothes out of my closet to be, at the very least, publicly and socially acceptable. Never did plan my outfits this week like I said I would. But I do have a plan for tomorrow: jeans. It's Friday (haalllllllelujah!). Which means some version of school spirit and my renewed will to live for the weekend.

Annnnnyyywayyyy... enough about how much I am hating getting dressed in the morning and on to what I loved wearing today (yes, comfort is still tops):

One of my favorite tops (floral! ruffles! polka dots! Spring!) and my current favorite sweater.

The sweater is perfection because I don't even need a scarf because it has an extra large collar that becomes cowl/turtle neck when zipped to the very tippy top:

Srsly, Sam Edelman makes the bestbestBEST dressy and dressyish flats. Could wear them every day. In fact, I did wear these almost every single day through my last month of pregnancy if that tells you anything at all. The only other shoes I would willingly put on were my $5 moccasin-slipper things from Target.
