I’m back! After an hour drive to the airport, a little negotiating with Delta Gate Agent and a 3 hour layover in the Atlanta Airport - I have returned the comfortable confines of my bedroom. To say it was a long travel day is, well, an understatement. But after spending 3 lovely days in Florida, I shouldn’t complain right? Yeah right. LONGEST TRAVEL DAY EVER. With the 30 for 30 on the horizon {note to self: figure this ish out ASAP} and a lot of clothes still in my suitcase {note to self: do laundry}, today’s outfit got the imitation treatment. To be honest, I almost re-wore this outfit, but instead of being completely boring, I went for only slightly boring by changing the colors and necklace. Similar yes. But not the same {it’s the small victories that matter kids}.


Alright so that’s it for today. I clearly have a lot to do {note to self again}. Oh yeah, plus there's all that stuff piling up on my desk.

Pin It!

  1. Wow that is really a long time to travel! I live in a small island, and the time it takes to cross the country is just about 45 mins hehe! Love the colour of your top! x

  2. Glad to hear you're home safe but it's a bummer your traveling was so blech! I know, I was trying to plan my 30 items last night and I realized I really need to do laundry, ugh!

    That belt is so cute, I want one!

  3. Just wanted to say that I stumbled across your blog a few days ago and am hooked! You and a few others have inspired me to start mine as well! I also see there is another 30-for-30 challenge coming up. When does that exactly start?? Can't wait :)

  5. BOO on other stuff. I'm so sick of all my "otherstuff" like "life" that keeps getting in the way of blogtime. And I don't even travel further than two miles any day so I really feel for you with all your extra otherstuff.

    But anyways, I totally would've never known you plagiarized yourself if you hadn't said something. It's a fresh color combo! And you look SO. EFFING. PRETTY. in that blue!

  6. I thought I had everything figured out for the challenge, but then I started trying to put a couple of outfits together, and I was having some trouble making a couple of my choices work. Looks like I know what I will be doing this weekend...

  7. That blue shirt just pops out, ya know? Layovers are getting too long, too often now. It used to be, if you were going to wait more than 6 hrs at the airport, they put you right in a hotel. Now, they make you wait while they find a plane you can board. I mean, I love airports but I love free hotel rooms even more. hee hee :)

  8. Small changes can turn an outfit into something completely different! I loved the necklace, size is great not too big but still very flashy! Glad you got home safe, have some rest and the go solve some of those selfnotes! Goodnight! xo

  12. Well, I think you look absolutely fantastic for someone who's had such a whirlwind travel experience!
    Grey and blue is one of my all time favourite combos and I love how the detail on your skirt picks up on your necklace ♥

    I'm considering the new 30x30 but I have so much going on right now - it might just make me crazy. lol.

  14. I finally sucked it up and did a load of laundry. Unfortunately, there's still about 3 more loads to do. Le sigh.
