I usually have my two BFFs dress me by committee when I need help choosing what to wear. I post pictures to our group chat and they make suggestions or give me opinions. This time I think I need the collective power of the peas.
This weekend DH and I are taking DS to New Orleans for his birthday and to look at colleges. We have been there several times, so I had my clothes all planned out.
I knew it would be hot, but we will be going to meet with a couple colleges I wanted to look nice, so I was going with my favorite knit dresses, either short sleeve or sleeveless (with a cardigan or something if a/c is cool) with sandals or loafers (could even wear Cons for doing touristy walking things) and a scarf to dress one up for evening.
The weather forecast is now calling for 80% chance of storms. All. Weekend. The rain will cool down the temps, but then it is wet and muggy. And I don't know if I really want my feet wet wearing sandals.
At home when it is this kind of weather I just wear jeans and my rain shoes or duck boots (the rubber/leather type). But I want to look nice for our trip.
Do I change to skinny ankle pants? Capri? Capri leggings with a nice tunic?
All of these are viable options, except I still have no clue what shoes to wear!
Also, do I take my trusty raincoat with the hood that is a taupe and navy color and is kind of oversized and makes me look shapeless or do I take my pretty pink trench style raincoat with no hood and doesn't really breathe, but looks good on?
Mother nature hates me, I think.
Please help me Peas!
