We couldn't agree more with Fabulously Broke...

Ellen made a really good point about not attaining perfection in my swimsuit season post. I quote:

From Daily Dose of Coffee...

Gap is just way too twee for me lately. I know there was a time that I shopped there for everything, yet now I can't find anything that works.

I've always liked layers - mostly because I tend to get cold easily and need to pile extra layers over my original outfit to stay warm. Yes, this even happens in the summer when I enter a store/restaurant/whatever that has set its thermostat to 'icebox.' I think some of you know what I'm talking about.
