The first day of class
Monday I attended my first day of classes.
What I wasn’t wearing: these outfits from Shopbop.
Are Shopbop’s main offices in Alaska?
As much as I like blazers, scarves and wooly skirts, I would probably collapse somewhere between the lightrail line and jellyfish net sculpture if I wore any of their suggested back-to-school items on my first day. I might, however, wear them around midterms.
Here is my idea of a good Arizona-friendly first-day outfit:
1.) Cocoa Powder Shorts, $39.99
Comfy, casual, cool.
2.) Ring of Desire, $12.99
Make a statement.
3.) Breezy Button-down, $38
Wear sleeves up or down, depending on the classroom A/C.
4.) Trouser Flat, $69
Comfortable shoes to traverse the campus.
5.) Double-studded Belt, $58
Pull it all together.
6.) Nuo Eco-Friendly Bag, $43.99
Keep organized with eco-friendly style.

I LOVED your first day outfit! I’m kind of obsessed with the watch that you were wearing and kind of wonder where you got it… :]

Ha — Thanks! I actually got it years ago at a store in LA called Red Monkey. They still have a website, and there’s a similar watch sans the holes (https://www.redmonkeydesigns.com/store/product_info_custom.php?products_id=45), but it’s gotten kind of expensive. I think they have wrap watches at Frances Vintage now too.

Thanks for the tip Carrie! I just saw your post about the sale going on at Frances and I really want to make a trip down there this weekend!
