We took these photos killing time before a meeting this week. And yes, I was optimistically dressed for Spring. I spotted this top on my girlfriend Jen last season and fell in love. For $18, I think we can all agree that it's a style steal. Did I mention it's supposed to be a dress? Yeah...so there's that! I think they call this "dressing for your age."
