Today’s OOTD (outfit of the day) features a black and white tweed blazer, red tank, black pencil skirt. I went with classic accessories like red drop earrings and black heels to keep it simple, since the multiple textures/patterns felt like enough was “going on.” I was hesitant to wear a tweed blazer in the summer, but the structure of it (like the light colored lining and 3/4 sleeves) combined with a cold office environment told me it would be legit. Speaking of outfits, I have really been Read More
Versatile accessories from Fibi & Clo
I love versatile jewelry. I get more bang for my buck when I can wear an accessory multiple ways, and it’s great for traveling so you don’t have to pack multiple pieces to go with every outfit. Case in point: this adorable necklace/headband from Fibi & Clo. (Read more about Fibi & Clo here.) Just last week, I wore it as a necklace for the first half of the day. I squeezed in an exercise class during lunch and didn’t get sweaty enough to warrant a shower, but since I have super Read More
Maroon Shift Dress Remix & Our First Dance
So here’s a little weekend recap: Friday night the hubs and I laid low but Saturday I did a challenging but fun workout led by my friend Kim at a local studio. There were several other bloggers in attendance, and we had a great time doing a kettlebell and boxing workout, followed by a delicious lunch. So nice to meet up with these ladies! From L to R in photo above: Lauren, Britt, Kelly, Amy, Kim, Erin, Sara, me! In the evening, my husband and I met another couple for dinner out and Read More
Tweed Blazer Two Ways
I had every intention of waking up early on Monday to do this blog post before work, but sleep prevailed. It was a fun whirlwind weekend full of fun visits with friends and family! On Friday, I met up with some old coworkers for froyo. It was nice to reconnect and chat! We met at our favorite froyo spot in town. You earn points for each time you go there and I am getting SO close to this awesome shirt that says: Afterwards, the hubs and I ordered takeout for dinner and called it a Read More
What I Wore to Work: Winter Darks
This week’s “What I Wore to Work” was apparently all about the “winter darks.” Lots of neutrals or dark colors going on here! Perhaps it’s my indirect way of saying how the cold, snowy weather makes me feel! In other news, this past weekend the hubs and I took on a little DIY project: a closet organization system! (We’re on a roll…we just finished our chandelier too!) Check out my Instagram for a little sneak peek, but I hope to get a post up later this Read More
What I Wore to Work: Sweater Season & Tunic Time
Brrr it’s cold outside! Our first snowfall was on Monday and the temperature is dropping FAST. Such a difference from the lovely weather on Saturday during our Champagne & Chocolate Crawl (which was heaven, by the way. Check out Instagram for a few photos of the shenanigans as well as the gorgeous Loft cargo jacket I got at consignment store, which was one of the stops that day). In any case, let’s get back to business and recap another week of office Read More
