Stripes to go

On the road again but I got to wear this all day today not just on the trip back to San Antonio.

 I seem to prefer these boyfriend style jeans for the plane rides cause they are loose and comfy.

 Wore a skirt suit blazer but then decided to wear a cardigan in the plane for practicality.




Jacket - Tahari
Tee - From Turkey
Jeans - Newport News
Sandals - Boutique 9

TODAY:
My husband decided to skip tennis so we can spend the morning together before I take off again for my business trip. We called up my dad who was also skipping tennis and together went to the zoo. All weekend long I have been trying to get more hugs and kisses from the kids and I can tell they hug and kiss more as well. I felt like a visitor at home this weekend. I was only there for 2 nights and a day and a half so just tried to make most of my time by spending quality with the kids and family.
It was so hard to leave again. I wasn't as panicked about packing though cause I only unpacked the clothes and nothing else. I also made my list of outfits on the plane ride home and didn't bother trying them on so lets see how this week goes.
I was also more at ease this time around on the light. You see, consulting can be very different than a permanent job. At the beginning of a new gig you never know what you are going to get exactly, whether you will be able to truly help or not. There was also the anxiety of being a in a foreign city, a new company and meeting a whole set of new people. But this week I know exactly what I am going to and even though I dislike this hotel just knowing what to expect made me feel less anxious. I am determined to finish my book on this trip so I can stop carrying around the huge hardcover book. I even brought a back up book in case it finishes early. I love being able to read again. I even read when standing in line to board the plane, then on the runway then waiting to de-board, waiting for the luggage. All down time I take advantage by reading and removing myself to a whole other world then where I am. I love that ability books have on the readers.
I should go to bed so I can get as much res as I can for another crazy week I am sure.

  1. I think this outfit is so chic on you, stripes and a blazer is always one of my fave looks. I hope you have a great time in San Antonio, I was just there a few weeks ago.
