WIWW

It's baaaaaack!
Yes, it's a little annoying to have to pause in my morning routine to snap a picture of myself... but it's still kind of fun to see and it really makes a world of difference in how I look at my wardrobe.
You should try it sometime! (wink, wink) And then leave me a comment so I can check out your style for inspiration. Haha.
One thing for sure: I look different than I think I do! :)
My good friend Julie is going to be traveling to Japan with her husband in mid-November and I've been so excited and interested in hearing about all of their plans and... her wardrobe plans! She hasn't started packing yet like I would have (LOL) but she's thinking ahead and getting some new, super cute/fun/practical/adorable clothes and... well, I'm jealous. So I'm living vicariously through her and trying to convince her to take a picture of her outfit every day in Japan so I can make a guest post of HER in my WIWW posts. Wouldn't that be so fun? In fact, why don't you leave a comment telling Julie she should do this so we can all enjoy her style. :)
Okay, so this isn't going to be a normal WIWW because I have been taking pics for the last 3 weeks - though not consistently. I don't really even know what day of the week each pic was taken or necessarily what I was doing. So bear with me. I'll give you what I know.
This was a Wednesday.

Ashley, my maternity leave is over as of this week :( I'm back to work and busier than I have ever been! I was just saying today that there is not a moment during my day when I don't feel like I'm rushing or hurrying to get something done. It's exhausting! When (if?) things ever slow down, I'll try to find 3 seconds to snap a picture in the morning. It might be a while...

Love the first sweater pic of you...very pretty! And Sophie is stylin' like usual. :)

I would participate, but I think y'all would get bored of seeing my pajamas :) And yes, I know that WIWW originated as a way for SAHMs to be accountable for getting out of their PJs every day... but, well, I consider that to be one of the best benefits of working from home! Maybe one day, if I ever work out of the office again, I'll do it :)
