Playing the Field

Got lots of compliments on this tunic I scored while shopping for my friend on Monday...

TUESDAY:
It was an all day affair volunteering at my kids' school for their annual 'Field Day' where they transform the upper field into a mini water park/obstacle course. From 8:30 to 11:30 I walked my daughter's 1st grade class from station to station as they had a blast splashing and running and playing and splashing. Then had to walk them back to class room and make sure they got dressed into dry clothes sorted their towels and wet stuff and got to the lunch arbor. Had barely 15 minutes or so to grab lunch myself before I reported again this time to walk my son's 3rd grade class for the next 3.5 hours.
There was actually more drama with the 3rd grade group then the 1st grade class. A bit upsetting to see girls obviously do not outgrow 'drama' as they get to 3rd grade. Yikes...

Of course after all this our day continued with gymnastics and baseball!
Was a very very long day...

Tuesday's outfit was inspired by this look from March 2015 issue of In Style:

This was a funky combination of colors and also cuts. The sneakers appealed to me as it makes it an easy outfit to fit my crazy lifestyle...

Not sure about this curly look… I tried something different...

Hanging out at beautiful Laguna Beach area catching up with friends (consultants from all around the country). Had training half the day.

Will be meeting up with my mom and sister and more friends tonight at the big Runway Show.

That will be a different outfit, different post. :)

Here are some photos with my Kika Sisters from today...

Take heart

 This casual combo was inspired by a very old chictopia post from last couple of years:

I liked the idea of blazer jacket with leggings and converses....

TODAY:
Another crazy day. Had my nephew with us which was nice. My dad joined us at the park (pre school class)  which was a great help. Then had a friend come over with her son to shop and had to pick up my son and my parents brought home cooked dinner. My days are getting a bit out of hand but hanging in there...
