Today's Outfit: Not-So-Lazy Sunday

  • Anthropologie cardigan
  • TNA ribbed racerback tank
  • Joe Fresh belt
  • H&M shorts
  • Pour La Victoire heels
  • Coach necklace

I've been doing fewer outfit posts lately because I'm simply exhausted. Multiple deadlines at work. Blogging and freelance writing when I go home. Events to attend. Yoga classes (or lack thereof because of lack of time and energy) and salsa socials (ditto). Events related to the boy's brother getting married (bridal shower, stagette, rehearsal banquet, the actual wedding day). The day I wore this outfit, I had an article to hand in by Sunday 6pm, so it was straight to work after a late brunch with the boy. Lots of stress and long busy days don't make for very creative or elaborate outfits. Most of the time I find myself looking like this and praying the bags under my eyes aren't too apparent.

With everything going on, I guess this is as good a time as any to announce a brief blog hiatus! I need a break so I can focus on other things and, you know, really enjoy summer. Although I'll be pretty scarce on my blog, you can still find me on Twitter for the next week or so.

    You do seem insanely busy! But we love your OOTD posts. You've got such great style. I really like the heels here, esp. paired with the very casual getup plus cardi!

    Lisa, I've always been impressed with how well you manage your schedule and I hope you have a good break from blogging. Sometimes it's nice to step away from it all. In spite of your busy life you still look polished and put together which is more than a lot of us can say when we are that exhausted! So I commend you for that :) Will I see you at BR on Thursday?

    I find that when I'm super busy and stressed out, fashion is always put on the back burner for me. The entire first half of this year was a total fashion faux-paus for me.... I just threw anything on because I didn't want to think. Wish I could put together an effortless outfit like yours so easily!

    I can totally understand the need for a break. I don't think I could write a blog on my own. Enjoy the break and let us know when you're back

    Well I don't know what you're talking about, I think you look stunning and totally put-together in this outfit. Hopefully things let up soon enough for you and you can enjoy some of the summer :)
