Morning Coffee in My Sweats





What I'm Wearing
* VS sweats, hoody & black v-neck
* Tiffany silver padlock pendant necklace
* Various silver chains, black bracelet c/o Guy & Eva, and DIY washer chain bracelet
* Round sunglasses
* Rebecca Minkoff MAB
* Crocs high top leather sneakers {so light I can barely feel them on my feet!}

Dirty, messy bed hair, sweats, sneakers, sunglasses and coffee... this is pretty much how I've looked since Friday afternoon (or some variation of it)... day and night - until the wee hours of the morning. Sunday evening I had to pull myself together and set up a photo shoot for some outfit photos I needed for my book but other than that, I've been locked up in my office again all weekend long trying to finish the last of my book edits. Rather than hiring a photographer, I offered to do it all myself, so as to give the book my own feel... but it's so much work, I can't even begin to describe it. The end of June will mark 7 months that I have been working on my book and while I love it and cannot WAIT until it's published early next Spring, the idea of opening up my mind to new and creative things OTHER THAN MY BOOK is so refreshing right now and I can finally see the light at the end of the tunnel. I'm so close... SO CLOSE... needless to say, I've been wearing sweats and sucking down caffeine all weekend long just to finish by my next deadline, today.

No, it's not pretty... but it's real ;)


















Happy Monday!

I wish my dirty, messy, bed hair looked like yours! xoxo

my honest answer said...

Even in your sweats you look ten times more glamorous than I EVER look! Which is probably because I looked at this outfit and thought, nah, too much trouble, I'd have to shave my legs...

some girls still look good even when they're slumming it - you are one of those girls (thanks for keeping it real for us today too!)

I love when fashion and style bloggers give us a taste of the "real" - often these types of outfits are common! :)

Thank you for an extra good writing. What are the local people can get in such a perfect way to write the details? I have a presentation next week, and I look around this information and facts.

you are so close! SO CLOSE! almost done!

and i love those shoes! they are so cute!

i have reverted to my summer wardrobe of skirts and bras for lounging around the house. it is already too hot for me to wear sweats! lol

I'm convinced you're some amazing super breed of female. Bed head, sweats, etc should equal looking a hot mess (case in point, when my friends showed up at the door the other day upon seeing my bed head/pjs they literally burst into laughter) but you still manage to look glam. Honestly, it's just not fair. I demand you give back all your winnings from the genetic lottery. Really though, can't wait to check out the book. Please continue to be amazing :)
