Do you ever feel like you have days where you’re crazy busy but accomplish little to nothing on your to-do list? I feel like I’m having one of those weeks. I either need more hours in the day or something to help me get laser focused. Can anyone help me out? Yeah, I didn’t think so.

Anyways, on to today’s better late than never post…

As much as I love sneakers, I have avoided grabbing a pair of classic chucks (despite being constantly envious of how cute they look on Beth) since I think they accentuate my already epically large feet. But when Rack Room Shoes gave me the chance to pick a pair of shoes for a post, I figured it might be worth giving them another go. I’m glad I did since I needed a new pair of fresh white sneaks and these are pretty perfect with jeans.

But rather than go the standard jeans and tee route, I thought I’d switch it up and go all black & white with this causal look. Perfect for running around on a fall weekend* – polished enough for errands, comfy enough for lazy football watching on the couch. These Lysse leggings are pretty freaking fabulous too since they come with a built in tummy panel to help hold everything in – perfect for this post-baby bod.

* Speaking of fall weekend plans, this weekend Dress & Dwell is hosting their 3rd Annual Fall Flea. It’s making the move from the farm to downtown New Albany so there’s no excuse not to head over there to hunt for some antiques and other fun finds. All the details here. Check out my trip to last year’s event here.

Black & White Tee: J.Crew (bought earlier this year but this sweatshirt is similar); Vegan Leather Panel Leggings: c/o Lysse; Converse Sneakers: c/o Rack Room Shoes; Necklace: BaubleBar (sold out but this one is the same color palette) ; Black Crossbody Bag: Sole Society (from last year but this year’s version is really similar)

I realized I’m a total fail today on providing links to the actual products – except the leggings & sneakers. So sorry about that but trying to shop the closet (#budgetprobs). Images by Whitney Neal.
