For Saturday, Day 10, I needed an outfit that would be presentable for work, yet also comfortable enough for a five-hour car trip after work. My husband and I were heading to Knoxville, Tennessee, to visit his mom for a couple of days.
Maybe it's because I first wore this skirt during my trip to Mexico in 2008 (that fact plus the color gave this garment its nickname, "the guacamole skirt"), but it's one of my go-to items to wear and/or pack for warm weather travel. Cool, comfy, looks fine with any neutral color on top--easy.

Holy crap! Look, everybody--it's a 2-headed squirrel!! Or at least a poorly drawn one. The reason why I'm next to this sign is a topic for another post.
For now, let's talk about my shirt, worn in honor of the first Sunday of football season. It's my Steelers shirt, which I love. Unfortunately, my team got clobbered in their season opener, but let's not talk about that right now...oh look--a two-headed squirrel!

On the way back to Atlanta from Knoxville, we paid a visit to Panarama Orchards for some apples. This place has become one of our favorite stops whenever we have a chance to take the back roads instead of the interstate. So many delicious varieties of apples are coming into season now, like these Honey Crips I'm clutching here. :)

I'm getting behind on my SSS posts--have been too busy living in the clothes and not just posing in them!
LOL at the guacamole skirt and the two-headed squirrel. I bet your five-hour car trip wasn't as long as it sounds because it seems you had a fine time in your car. Hmmm, what do you plan to whip up with those apples? ;)
