Biker Vest and Booties

Inspiration Picture

My Interpretation

Dress: Old Navy; Vest: Target; Shoes: Mr. Shoe; Bracelet: Etsy; Bag: Coach

I was once again intimidated by the Inspiration Monday photo, but I ended up liking the result.  I may have thought to pair this dress with the vest, but I wouldn't have thought to add the booties.  How do people wear boots in the summer?  My feet were all hot, and the black "leather" vest didn't help much either.  Luckily, it wasn't too ridiculously hot today.

I wore this outfit to visit my brother and his wife's place near Madison yesterday.  My parents are off to Germany for a couple weeks, so we had a quick family dinner together at a restaurant by my bro's place.  It was a typical bar/restaurant with a burger and sandwich type of menu, but the food was atypically exceptional.  I'm really hoping the other half of my southwest chicken wrap survived the two-hour drive home so that I can have it for lunch tomorrow, but I doubt it.
