L'eau

Over the weekend it got hot.  Like really freakin' hot. Like my temperature gauge said 107/hell yesterday and I almost started crying.  Over the weekend, I decided to spring for a few lightweight chiffon tanks and dresses to keep me from melting.  Although I brought several home, this was the only keeper.  I was just too crazy about the color to let it go. 

As a general rule of thumb, I don't buy inexpensive chiffon-y type shirts from discount stores like F21, H&M, etc.  I just don't have good luck with them.  They never fit right and they always end up falling apart after a couple washes. I used to have a sort of addiction to cheap tops and I gave myself an intervention because I realized that if I just saved and bought a more expensive, but better quality piece, it would last much longer.  Sometimes I stumble and I'm sure this one will be in the trash in a few weeks, but for $14.99. I'll take my chances.
