In the past when I've been asked to travel for a job, its been to places like Washington D.C. or Connecticut. Next week, though, I am going to San Migeul Allende at the request of a stylist I work for frequently. Since this trip is for business and not pleasure, no swimsuits needed. Thank Goodness. Im not sure that the Mexico is ready for the blinding whiteness that comes with my barely covered body. But, in planning my attire, I need to be practical, but I still want to look like I do in fact work in fashion. Since Chambray is trendy for Spring 2011, I love this tunic. Lucky for you and me, I've kept the cost down. Who wants to lose or ruin a $200 pair of shoes or sunglasses? Being almost transparent as well, I also need to cover up, yet still keep cool in the 8 hours or more I will be in the sun on set. Have you guessed that I'm not much of a beach girl? Yes, that is a bottle of Aveeno SPF 85 in the picture.
If you click on the items, you can see that this entire outfit cost $400, including sunblock. The most expensive piece is the jean shorts, but you can always find similar styles for much less.
