hipster classic.

And back to regular posting! I hope everyone had a good weekend and holiday (if you were lucky enough to have Monday off—I was not). We had a very busy weekend, with our parents coming over for dinner on Saturday, and then running a 10k on Sunday! It was my first race ever, and we (my boyfriend & I ran it together) finished in an hour and 18 minutes!

We took these photos on Saturday after a nice unplanned brunch in Clarendon at Le Pain Quotidien (which was delicious!).

Photos by my boyfriend.

I'm wearing:

Plaid shirt: Urban Outfitters

T-shirt: Threadless

Skirt: thrifted

Belt: Target

Leggings: Old Navy

Wedges: Madden Girl via DSW

Necklace: Target

Purse: Coach, was my mom's

Red, black, and white is probably one of my favorite color combinations—for outfits, designs, everything. It's so simple and classic. This is a more hipster-y take on it, but I really like this outfit and how the photos turned out. My mom gave me this purse a few months ago and I always forget that I have it, but it's such a perfect fall color and I need to remember to use it more.

Anyways, having our parents over for dinner went really well, which was quite a relief. And I'm really glad to have the 10k behind us, although I'm still not going to stop working out (although I'm taking a few days off because my shins are still not thrilled with stairs—they were murdering me during the race).

Also, nothing like surviving a 3.5 hour meeting and coming out of it feeling much better about everything. The head of my division said that even though I may be the least experienced of our group, I've been doing my job the best. That's always nice to hear!

Have a great rest of the week!
