What I wore to the Philadelphia Chamber Music Society Young Friends night…
the ann mashburn susy shift maxi dress
I laid my eyes on this dress during the beginning of last holiday season. Unfortunately, Ann Mashburn rarely offers holiday sales and so, after weeks and weeks of obsession and watching the Black Friday and Cyber Monday sales come and go, I purchased the dress with the introductory ten percent coupon code.
I typically dislike synthetic fabric, but I broke that rule with this dress. The top layer is a navy blue netting with wave pattern throughout; beneath is a black poly slip. It is a pullover style fastened with a button at the top of the back. A side slit ups the ante on the fancy factor.
I bought this dress in a size large.
the gap drapey trench coat
I bought this coat while on Sex and the City diet, circa 2018. I wore it throughout my first pregnancy, even into Burberry, where it was mistaken for a Burberry trench coat, by Burberry staff. Picture me smug as fuck with a baby bump musing that it is indeed from the Gap.
I am wearing this coat in a size medium tall.
