It’s the weekend folks! Hooray!, right!?

This week I took a photo almost every day but none of them turned out…it was getting really frustrating. I was able to snag this photo one night after work.

Ok, let’s talk about this outfit for a minute…or, well, nearly all of the outfits I’ve posted thus far. Almost all of my clothes are more than year(s) old. That cami? Yep, pregnant with Ry…4 years ago! The blazer? I bought my senior year of college…so that makes it over 6 years old. The good thing is, I still mostly love them all, and they’re all new to you guys but really…I think I need to refresh some things.

And there’s those shoes again. Apparently I’m in love with brown this fall. And apparently I need to get new shoes.

Ok, well, that’s a lie…

I’m not really a big deal, but I do have big exciting news!

{no, I’m not pregnant}

I was recently asked to become a contributing writer for the blog “Liberating Working Moms“!

Liberating Working Moms, or LWM, is all about sharing what being a working mom is all about…“Ultimately, we are a group of moms, trying to get the word out about all the trepidations and rewards that come with being a working momma. It’s liberating to share our journeys of figuring out what works, what doesn’t, and what’s simply best for right now. Though the guise of this blog is under the working momma category, we hope that all moms will find something to read. Because really, all moms are moms. We all struggle. We all have rewards. We all need some advice. And we all have antics to tell about.”

You might remember this post I did about my {lack of} mom guilt. Well, I recently submitted an article for another guest post and Tracy asked if I’d like to come on board as an official contributor! Of course I said yes!!

This means you’ll find me over there a few times a month (along with some other fantastic & talented working mamas)  talking about routines, the coveted “me time”, day care woes, sharing quick weeknight recipes…pretty much all things working-mom. Of course, I’ll still be holding down the day to day over here too!

So, head on over and check out my first post as an “official contributor” where I’m talking about jealousy…just click HERE to go.

I hope you’ll love the community as much as I do!

Fall is upon us here in the PNW that means I’ve put away my capris and skirts and pulled out my pants. Since I work in a very relaxed environment, I normally wear jeans, but I’ll be honest…I get sick of wearing jeans everyday. On the day I wore this I got asked why I was so “dressed up” no less than 3 times. See what I mean by relaxed? I mean, it’s not like I’m wearing a suit or anything!

Oh, and now that it’s fall, it means we’re using our wood stove, hence the stacks of wood…I think I’ll need to find a new place to take my photos…

That necklace and bag? I love them both. They each came from a different grandmother, yet the coordinate so well, am I right!? Technically, the bag is actually one of Rylee’s dress-up bags, but I totally snagged it for this outfit. Shhh…that’ll be our little secret.
