Confession time: I skipped my workout today and snuck away to get a mani/pedi. The choice was to either sit in a spa chair with a glass of wine while my nails get prettied, or do 3 rounds of running, burpees, and pullups… I think I made the right choice. 🙂
Soft colors are always my go-to for spring. I’m a former MAC makeup junkie so when I saw this blazer, the first color that came to mind was cornflower blue. Although my blue eyeshadow wearing days are long gone by now, this shade is so much more wearable in an outfit. The collarless-style of this blazer gives it more versatility as it can be dressed down with a simple t-shirt and shorts even for a casual weekend look. For today though, it was business casual as usual and pairing it with pink polka dots seemed like just what I needed to make it through hump day. Hope you’re having a good one!

That blazer is such a lovely shade of blue! Really nice with the pink polka dot blouse 🙂

I skipped yoga yesterday to watch Frozen with my kids. I think that "cheat days" are pretty essential to the workout process. Good for you!
thank you! i used a Canon 5D Mark II with a 85mm f1.8 lens for these pictures. I've posted info on my photography equipment here: http://cutenlittle.wpengine.com/2014/03/tripod-self-photography-tips-part-i.html
I love this color combination, a beautifully softer version of red white and blue. Cornflower blue is one of my favorite hues.
Sometimes we all deserve to skip out of the usual workout to reward ourselves. And i love the blouse with the blazer!
