A Work Filled Day of Work

Why:

I’m here. I haven’t left you… I promise.

Life has been rather busy lately, I am taking on a lot of new work responcibilities, trying to stick to a regular exercise schedule, trying to cook / eat healthy, trying to make time for my relationship, friends, and family, and trying to sleep.

Somewhere in that mess, blogging took the backseat for a week.

I took last week as an opportunity to repeat outfits, be lazy, and ignore “normal” rules of fashion. Plus, even when I do take photos in the morning, the blogging aspect doesn’t get done when I crawl home from the office around midnight.

Right now I’m focusing on my career. I’m working on my professional self. And as much as I love this blog, the people I have met through blogging, and the personal growth I have experienced… it sometimes doesn’t make it on to my list of priorities. You understand, I know. I just feel like I need to explain my sporadic posting.

Anyways… today was a battle for comfort, warmth, neutrality, and professionalism.With a pop of fun color, of course.

I spent the day running around, kicking butt, taking names, and getting things done.  A very productive day indeed.

I even randomly ran into my best friend in the entire world, along with an old professor of mine and a group of students in NYC on a fabric sourcing trip, preparing for their senior collections. I obviously knew my BFF was in town, but our schedules haven’t coincided all week, so we haven’t seen each other.

A pleasant surprise indeed to receive a hug from behind on the streets of New York and turn around to realize it’s your best friend!

I feel really good about today, and today’s outfit. It goes down in the books as a success!
