celebrating

I showed this outfit for the chambray edition of #momstyle remix, but liked it so much I decided to dedicate a full post to it's green-skirted goodness. I love that it has a nod to fall with the deep forest green, but the light-weight chambray kept things cool and comfortable on a 90+ day. Thankfully it's starting to cool off a little bit - highs in the mid-80s and lows in the 60s - finally tolerable Florida weather.

Unrelated side note, I'm so, so glad things have finally calmed down at work and I'm back to a regular 8-5 schedule. It's nice to get back into a normal routine again, and to have time to dedicate to this space. I've missed you guys! My office mates and I had celebratory pumpkin spice frappuccinos - it's just too dang hot for warm anything this time of year - in honor of the completion of the magazine (and National Coffee Day). I can't think of a better way to celebrate!
