I must stop posing by this house or you all will start to think that I live there. I don’t think anyone lives there actually, well so we hope. It looks condemned and there is always something else broken or another shingle that has fallen off every time we drive by. Which is a lot, as we are in the market. That’s right, the market for a crack house.
I wore this yesterday to work. Casual Friday indeed. I ended up dressing just like my boss — who is a dude. Nice blazer, button down, jeans — he has good taste I must say. And we sat by each other at the department meeting. Such luck I have. Of course we were wearing different shoes. His wedges were black.
Well I’m off to support my husband in mowing our grass. Then I will support him on fixing me dinner and bringing me some wine. Oh and don’t mind me, I’ll just be tidying things up a bit on my blog. Pardon if things happen to look a little wonky for a while.
Happy weekend, darlings.

SUPER cute outfit. Love the plaid.
I remember those good ol' days in the office … someone would show up in a coordinating outfit and it would be all "well, I didn't get your memo!!!!" for the rest of the day. Hahahahahaaaaa…shut up.
so casual, yet SO chic! love it!!!
It made me laugh that you said you matched your boss, but it's fine cause you look great in this outfit!!

great outfit! Small town or not the scenery you always pose in front of it amazing.
You always find great shoes from Target! I love this outfit and I'm in search of those wedges! 🙂
Love this outfit almost as much as I love your witty writing…
Wearing clothes like a boss, love it. I'm the biggest fan of those shoes, they're all brown and wedge-y and I like them a lot

So jealous of your fabulous photo locations. I was just bragging about you to my boyfriend yesterday! "Kendi has such accessible style and takes her pictures in beautiful places…"
Seriously. You're blogposts make my day sometimes. i.e. your bosses wedges 🙂
HA you crack me up. 🙂 Is the title in reference to the SNL skit? Because I love that song. Also, I fully support your husband in brining you a glass of wine. I'd love one from mine as well 🙂

Aw this is a sweet post. You must have a very kind husband! I like your outfit… casual yes, but I think the blazer and wedges dress it up ever so slightly making it more work appropriate! Thanks for sharing!
You really have a good sense of humor. Like this outfit and love the new header 🙂
love the light in this picture. and congrats on wearing a blazer and not looking a middle-age corporate dowager.
(oh and i may have used that phrase not completely knowing what it means)
Great outfit! 🙂

Hey, all the blog additions/changes looks great – your site is really looking awesome! And I love this "30" project, it's really fun and inspirational to see how much you can get out of that capsule wardrobe. All of us at academichic are becoming avid followers of this little experiment.
Have a great weekend! S
Hi! I own the same gap jeans, and I really like your combination with the casual shirt and blazer! I might try and replicate it soon 🙂
PS
I just started following your blog, and I really like it!!!
Cute outfit. I really love the 30 day project you are doing. And your crack house. 🙂
Cursing myself for not buying a blue blazer this season. Blurg.
I wished we lived in the same town..I would drink some wine with you:)

I am loving the blazer with the checkered shirt! I hope you enjoyed the dinner and wine!
I love this! Let's see your boss's wedges. I bet his were fantastic!
You're doing such a great job!!! Keep it up I am getting inspired to ditch a bunch of clothes and see if I can do this.

Such a chic Casual Friday outfit! Love it! Did you boss comment on how you looked alike? That would have been too funny. I like the new layout, by the way.
Haha, I love the house! I wish there was a cool house like that near where I live!

I love that house. It makes an awesome background. Now, why can't I find a nice crack house in my neighborhood to pose with?
Also love the outfit. Perfect weekend chic!
I like the new blog design! Also, you look adorable in those jeans!
Oh gosh, you look so cute!
I happen to have that same shirt, do you think that it would work with a black blazer and jeans, or should i really hold out for navy? it really is an awesome look!
Oh these pictures are so amazing! It was the same for me the other day when I posed in a very grungy area in downtown – I was like.. I hope people don't think this is what my town really looks like. Haha!
dude style or not, I am really liking this outfit! I like that the shirt you paired with the blazer isn't a typical pairing. You know, not a "business" shirt. The casual shirt under the blazer is way adorable!
Adorable!!! Thanks for the great ideas!!
Great outfit babes!
We love the fact you have really mixed up the higher end labels with some golden classics.
Fab work!

Kendi, you crack me up. I've only been following you for a little while, but I think you're top of the pops. So funny! The comment about his wedges being black is pure gold. Keep up the great work (i.e making me smile)
