Transitional

Life has been all about transition since I started my new job a little more than three weeks ago. It’s been incredibly rewarding and fulfilling to back in the workforce, and I’m really enjoying what I’m doing. That said, I’m re-learning how to balance work and life. My hours are very reasonable, but by the time I come home and walk the pup, I find the evenings go by much too quickly. So, I’m often playing catch up with writing and reading blog posts. Another major transition is happening in my closet. Not only are we moving from summer to fall, but I have to figure out what the heck to wear to work! With that in mind, I spent my lunch break catching up on recent outfit posts and perusing Pinterest for inspiration. Here are some of my favorite looks, perfect for transitions of all kinds:

    • Totally agree. Love mixed media bomber jackets too.

  3. Sometimes I dread the idea of ever working from an office again. I DON’T KNOW HOW TO DRESS MYSELF FOR THAT SETTING ANYMORE.

    • It’s definitely a switch from the shorts and t-shirts I’ve been walking the dog in all summer…but it’s kind of fun too! I will be glad to help you whenever you’re an office worker again 🙂
