Happy Tuesday, y’all!

I know the weekend is still a few days away, but wanted to give you some time to outfit prep ahead of Friday night as you’re going to want to run out and get this Banana Republic Factory Scalloped Lace Top as soon as possible!

I love a good lace top, and this one is extremely high-quality and very easy to take from desk to drinks. It comes with a white cami that is loosely sown in, but very easy to separate in-tact, so you can switch it out for a black one depending on your mood.

Paired with a good pair of ripped black jeans and my tried-and-true black heeled sandals, this is the perfect look for whatever your Friday or Saturday night plans entail. Here’s to hoping we have a few more weeks of mild-enough weather that we don’t need to throw a jacket on top because nothing is worse than getting to a hot bar and having to hold your coat all night for quick dashes in and out of ubers. #toomuchwork

Real talk though, as much as I love a good Friday or Saturday night out, I definitely hibernate during the cooler-weather months. Anyone else? I also have found that as I’ve gotten older, regardless of the season, I love a good girls night in with a bottle a few bottles of wine and ample supply of cheese and carbs with which to eat them.

Some of my best memories over the past few years have actually taken place around the kitchen table in my apartment, discussing everything from dating to drones—lest you not forget, we live in Washington. Bars are great, but screaming to your gals over $13 cocktails gets old after a while.

Yet, if you’re team staying in over the next few months like me, definitely still consider this look. It’d be perfect for any creative-industry networking event, casual holiday party, or Friday look depending on where your office dress code sits on the spectrum.
