Life Style

Excuse me while I deviate from fashion talk for a moment for a brief "dear diary" entry: I am dog tired. In the past nine weeks, I have been out of town for seven of them. The other two, I was moving. I haven't had my "routine" (eating/sleeping/working out) since August, haven't watched TV since August, and haven't answered my email since August (sorry if you are waiting to hear from me!! I promise I will write you back). I'm definitely not complaining - I love to travel and feel blessed to have all of those experiences. I'm just so tired. I don't have any travel planned in the next couple weeks and I can't wait to finally answer those emails!! And unpack from moving and do a million other things. Have you ever been out of your routine for a long period of time? How did you cope?

About the outfit: today's look is not all that similar to my inspiration photo but I wanted to include it for two reasons - I like the summer/casual vibe of her look and it gives another idea for wearing a printed skirt. And while the photo is not that similar, it did actually spark the idea for my outfit. I like sharing my creative process with you guys even if my outfit winds up very different. :-)
