O.W.O. Sunset Edition

Posted on July 14, 2014 by reversecommuter

O.W.O. (one weekend outfit) is all about sunsets and rosè…and sweats. Insert “HUH?” here.

It is in reference to the launch of net-a-porter‘s net-a-SPORTER, a dedicated portal for all things sporty, be it golf, tennis, running, yoga and even apres-les-sportifs!

reversecommuter has long been concerned about women trapped in the dreaded “I GAVE UP” yoga pant uniform. Net-a-SPORTER is different. It is a gorgeously selected group of designer pieces that make the sporty look look fab! Designers include Laiin, Monreal London, Bodyism, Stella McCartney, Nike, Hey Jo etc. Suffice it to say that the old fading yoga pants have had their day.

Natalie Massenet and her troops can help clean up the world just a teeny tiny bit – in the same vein as reversecommuter aims to do on a daily basis – to remove one burnt out elastic yoga pant from one woman’s wardrobe.

Don’t you just love it when your wine matches the sunset? 😉

The One Step

I thought it was just me. Suddenly I am the queen of the one step.

Lunch must come in a box

Outfit must be one piece, maximum.

Perfect lunch date (with said boxed lunch) somehow squeezed into crazed day

Quickly add one soul saving dip in the pool before the school bus brings home the rambunctious-sports playing-school project doing-constantly competing-always giggling- loudness delivering-awesome twins, who I truly love more than words.

But then a friend of mine on the baseball field last night mentioned Jet Hatmaker’s Worst End of School Year Mom Ever blog posting from last year, (hello, where the heck have you been reversecommuter!??!) and I realized that at this time of year, a one item outfit is not only climate appropriate, it is NECESSARY to maintain some sort of mental stability – there is just WAY TOO MUCH going on!!!!!!!!!!

A couple of my current fave dresses are (in no particular order by the by…)
