Marching to a distant drum

I wore this around town while I poked around some local thrift stores. Didn't find too much I wanted to get, but it was ridiculously hot so I wasn't in much of a mood for shopping. I might save my big thrift trips for the stores near our old apartment, because I think there's more variety around there and it's cheaper.

I like how this outfit came together. Pattern mixing is so much fun for me when it's in red and blues. I'll probably wear this exact same outfit in the fall, but with my tall brown boots. I'm getting antsy for fall weather -- I'd like to be able to layer clothes again! I'm tired of sweating through everything and having to wash it all.

When I went to take these photos, the parking lot near this trail was overcrowded because the university's marching band and flagline were practicing on the intramural fields nearby. Hundreds of cars and people. So when I was snapping away on my secluded dock, I was treated to some cool band music. It reminded me of when I used to live at home, and our house was only a couple miles from my high school. On Friday nights during the football game, you could hear the drums from my backyard, like it was a secret symphony.

Hope you're having a great Saturday!
