Good morning! I’m back with another installment of “what I’d wear” to various things that might be on your calendar this week. I’ve been finding these posts personally useful because I am normally an extremely moody dresser and will often leave my outfit styling to the very last minute, but in this case, I actually flipped back to last week’s post for inspiration as to what to wear to a party one of the moms in Emory’s third grade class threw. I ended up wearing this HHH dress, these boots, this jacket, and this adorable under-$100 necklace from a Magpie reader’s business*, drafting off of one of the styled looks here! You can see the components above and a full styled look here.

What to Wear: Work Meeting.
I personally like to wear whatever makes me feel most powerful when I’m heading into an important meeting — for me, this is almost always a dress and/or a blazer. Side notes: 1) I just ordered these new glasses from Warby Parker (they make it so easy — you can just enter your prescription yourself, and they have a little try-on widget so you can see how they’ll look on your face) so wanted to include! and 2) How amazing are these $140 embellished flats as a look for less for these VBs?!

What to Wear: Pilates Class.
I have been in a good exercise flow and am contemplating embarrassing myself / stretching myself (literally) by trying pilates again. It is so hard! How fab is this cute colorblocked, sherpa-accented vest from J. Crew?!

Hi! Two things please- I love the bags you suggest but most are open at the top (don’t zip closed.) Does that bother you and does your stuff fall out? Also, would you consider a “What I’d Wear” for going directly from the gym to meet friends for dinner?
I do this most Wednesdays and would love some nicer looking options (preferably black/especially sneakers) to work out comfortably but then slip into a neighborhood bistro without looking too shabby. Thanks so much!
Hi Mary!! Love these questions. I am not typically bothered by an open top but I’m thinking now about my lifestyle, which is mainly going from place to place in a car, sitting at a destination, etc — I’m not commuting on a subway, or walking to work, where that might be more of a consideration. For now, it does not. But let me keep my eyes out for zip-top options!! Will provide some chic picks soon.
I’m on it in: re exercise to table outfit! My top rec off the top of my head is a cute jacket to throw over your gym clothes!!

Ah have fun at Tyler Childers! We saw him when he played in Lexington KY in the spring and it was one of my favorite concerts in recent memory. I have been listening to his music practically every day since — in the car or on the home Google device while I’m tinkering around the house. You’ll have so much fun!
So glad to hear! He has a one-of-a-kind voice! Can’t wait.
