Well, my extended holiday break has come to an end today. And lucky me, I'm coming back to work with a head cold! Hooray! What kind of person has 10 days off, many of which were relaxing and still gets sick? Apparently me! Oh well, at least I look cute today! New sweater and gingham shirt from Christmas!
Sweater - Merona, Target
Gingham shirt - JCP, JCPenney
Pants - Ann Taylor, thrifted
Necklace - Maurices
Shoes - Madden Girl, thrifted
I'm of course jealous of Mr. Monkey, he took today off. He deserves a day for himself, but man, I wish I could have stayed at home with him today! I think today could be a long day. Fortunately I kept checking in on my emails while I was away from work so I don't have too many surprises to deal with today.
The good news is, the weekend is only a couple of days today, we're already at Hump Day! Short weeks for the win! Onward and upward!
A cute outfit and new clothes makes going back to work a little more bearable. Hopefully you are feeling better soon. I love the gingham top and how you paired it with the cardi. JCPenney has been kicking butt lately! Heather
ReplyDeleteI love that outfit! The pink sweater and shirt are really cute! Thank goodness for it already being hump day so a short week again. It's a win that's for sure! Feel better soon Bethie Boo!
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better, Beth! My hubby decided to take off the rest of this week while I'm still at work which stinks. We're both wearing gingham today :)

Hey lady! Love that shirt! I am so sorry to hear you are sick. Take it from someone that was sick for most of break - drink so many liquids, drink, drink, drink and flush it OUT. I also tried a "mustard bath" that sounded weird (and smelled weirder) from the co-op (wedge) and it seriously helped. Not sure if it was hippie voodoo or the real thing, but it is worth a try! :) Hope you feel better soon darlin! xoxoxoxo
ReplyDeleteHope you feel better fast dear!
ReplyDeleteGreat attitude Bethie! GET WELL SOON! Thank you for the cake compliment on my photo. Hahahaha, was it BAD to post a photo that looks like a dessert so early in the morning?
ReplyDeleteMy man has the rest of the week off, so it was definitely a bummer to come back to work today, but hey! I am trying to be more optimistic about each day and you are right... it is already hump day, whoot whoot!
ReplyDeleteLove the pink colors on you, so pretty!
I love a short week! I love the outfit today, we kinda have the same outfit on! Only I won't have my pics up for like a week because I am so slow at getting to them, hehe.
ReplyDeleteI hope you feel better!
Aww too bad you're not feeling well :-( you look great though. I got a pink sweater this Christmas too!
ReplyDeleteThis is very chic and pretty! I love that pink on you-what a great color. I hope you feel better! Going back to work with a cold is always the pits. Blah.
ReplyDeleteI had a discussion with myself about working today... But I made it in! And the fact that there are only 3 days makes it that much easier!
ReplyDeleteI love how you layered the gingham under the cardigan! Looks so pulled together!
So sorry you're feeling yucky! Hope you get better soon! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd you do indeed look cute! Love the pink cardi and gingham. Adorable. :)
Hope you have a great day back at work! I'm starting my new job at Camy Couture today! Pretty excited. I'll let you know how it goes on the blog tomorrow.
ReplyDeleteAnd you look great! Love this business-y look!
Aww sorry you're feeling ill! However short weeks for the win. You also do look pretty fabulous. I love the pattern mix and the perfectly layered tops. Like something outta a J Crew lookbook.
ReplyDeleteVery nice Bethie! I like it when shirt tails can be free, and not tucked in. Boo to going back to work though.
ReplyDeletei'm sorry you are sick...i was the same way. i downed zycam and even did the sleep with an onion trick...whatever it was worked, because i am starting to feel better now!!! get well soon!

Boo to that! My holiday break ended today too, but thankfully I didn't have to suffer through it with a cold. I hope you feel better soon! I really like this look on you by the way! I feel like it's classic, but I thought having a printed button up in the same color as the cardigan was unexpected and looks great!

Hi, Beth and Happy New Year! :)
ReplyDeleteSo sorry you're dealing with a crummy a cold. Hopefully you're getting it out of the way and won't have another one all year.
I absolutely love this cardi/gingham combo....and the color is fabulous. Pretty matching manicure too!

Between the bright color and layering, this is seriously an adorable outfit. It's always hard to get back into the swing of things. Hopefully you are feeling better soon! Did the bright colors today help? :(

I agree. JC Penney has been awesome in the last 2-3 years. I like the small Plaid paired with that Magenta-Burgundy Cardigan. Happy New Year 2013 Beth!!
ReplyDeleteTake Care, Ada. =)
