Cheers to the Weekend

20120821-221941.jpg

It’s Friday people! Honestly, this was a very long week. I don’t have big plans for this weekend except for attending my cousin’s wedding on Sunday afternoon. Saturday, I plan on sleeping in and going about my day in as relaxed a way as I possibly can. This is my second to last weekend off, before, Nate and I are back to working opposite shifts on Saturdays. Double this with the fact that he works Sunday mornings also, weekends aren’t easy for us if we want to see each other at all.

What are you doing this weekend? For those of you who have gone back to school to teach or learn, or have children in school how have the first days gone? Have you fell into your stride and figured out schedules and such? I’ve been writing out my lesson plans for the first week of classes, and now I need to come up with choreography for combos too. I love my job!

Add a Shot of Pink

Lyla is a big fan of color! When she picked the tank top she told me “you need a little pink mom.” All together this is a comfy, end of summer outfit.

Ease on Down the Road

Simply perfect for blistering summer weather. Which by the way, with kids going back to school shouldn’t we be getting some cooler almost fall like weather? I would love to wear a new pair of jeans I’ve got hanging in my closet.rings, chevron rings, chevron, pink nail polishtank top, trapeze top, shorts, cutoffs, sandalsNow to turn things around for a second. I have to say that a baby in a t-shirt and cloth diaper is probably the cutest thing I’ve seen all summer. I really like this particular robot cover from Rumparooz.tank top, trapeze top, shorts, cutoffs, sandals

Carefree and Plaid

My sister cleaned out her closet, and I received a few new pieces for my closet. Don’t worry, this wasn’t a purchase at all and does not break the rules of my shopping ban. I received these pieces before the ban started anyway. The shorts are one of the items I came home with. Boy oh boy are they soft too. It is like wearing pajama shorts all day long.

Do you have a clothing items like that? Things that you may not always wear, but when you do you feel incredibly comfortable all day long. I almost fell asleep two or three times during the day. Not the best thing to have happen when your playing single mom for the week.

Short Shirts and Long Shorts

The last day of summer dance classes, and cleaning up the studio for our open house this weekend required a simple, ok to mess up, outfit. I thought a fun color combo would make it a little more worthwhile. Cherry red crop top, long cutoffs, and bright blue tennis shoes.

I had a heck of a time photographing this outfit. However, you get to see my favorite poster at the dance studio. I love the Fosse print in back. Bob Fosse was a choreographic phenomenon! Some day, I want to choreograph a Fosse jazz tribute. Haven’t found the perfect group for this yet, but I’m still waiting.
