easy fall look

ditch your hoodie sweatshirt for a blazer.


as comfortable as it is there is a blazer
counterpart out there that is just as comfy and warm.

that $18 blazer (from kmart!) is all over the internet.
not only because it's only $18 but it's a knit 
blazer, which means it's going to be just 
as comfy as a hoodie
but you're going to look so much more
put together
and on trend.

this is just as easy as putting on yoga pants a t-shit and hoodie.
i'm not telling you,
i'm showing you.
and
this is your mantra for back to school.
this is just as easy as putting on yoga pants, a t-shirt and hoodie.

will i look put together every school day to drop my daughter off?
no.
will i try?
yes.
will there be days when we sleep in 
my daughter gets a pop tart for breakfast 
and we barely miss the bell?
yes...and I probably wont even have time for a bra on those days.
but,
the days that i wake up on time:
i will wash my face
put a bra on
put on pants
a shirt
and a cute blazer/jacket
and pull on my boots
straighten my bangs
and brush my teeth
before i bring my daughter to school.
i challenge you to do the same.
and if you don't have kids or kids in school,
i challenge you to do this before you run your errands.
before you go to school.(which more than likely you're already doing)
before you join the world, take time for yourself.

some more ideas for the road:

  1. Thank you for this!! Totally not a fan of hoodies other than for the great outdoors or working out. I think of middle schoolers and high schoolers that have AERO all over it.
