Sparrow



Blokey and I are on our way to see Mighty Sparrow, the Calypso King, at a free noon concert at Metrotech. It's not for fun, it's part of his dissertation research. I picked up this airy shirt dress while shopping with Jesse.anne.o and What I Wore a couple weeks ago, and while it can be a bit short, it's the perfect one piece for the fourth hot day in a row. Did I mention the concert is outside? Well, it's all in the name of research on post colonial Caribbean culture. Sometimes, you just have to make sacrifices.

I can't believe there's not a single neutral in this outfit, although my friend C. told me that yellow can be a neutral. My hair is a neutral, I suppose.

I hope that you have a lovely and productive (and cool) Thursday!

  2. That shirt dress looks really comfortable. I don't consider yellow to be a neutral, but that might be because I wear it infrequently.

  3. You look fantastic! I hope the concert was a good time and that Blokey got some good research done!

    I've never heard anyone call yellow a neutral, but I have to admit that I often treat purple as if it were a neutral.

  4. You look great. The dress is not too short, it is a little longer than the shorts you had on yesterday, besides, you have the legs to pull it off.
    I hope the research went well.

    ps. no more aftershocks..

  6. Dresses are so much cooler than pants or shorts. This one's sweet and sassy!

  7. That's an adorable shirt dress and I love the blue/yellow/purple plaid.
    Definitely a good choice for this heat!
