Hope your week is off to a good start! I'm sorry I've been gone from the blogosphere for a while.
I've been so busy with work and fun time and haven't had a lot of time or energy for blogging. For me, blogging has ups and downs. When I start to feel blogger burnout, I try to step back a bit instead of forcing myself to write without passion. While I take my blogging seriously, I never want it to feel like just another "job."

Skirt: The Limited |
It's kind of nice to be living life though, having fun playing board games with the kids and getting ready for Halloween, going to fashion shows, and spending a little time with the man. Sometimes, I get so bogged down between my paid job and blogging that I let myself lose focus on actually living!!
I'm feeling a little more refreshed and have several posts planned, including today's outfit post featuring yesterday's work look with a day to night twist.

Top: New York & Company (Available here) |
Here, a statement making necklace helps bring together a solid pencil skirt, trapeze top, and blazer.
I love minimalist looks, but I would be bored by this outfit if it weren't for the necklace and textured bag. For me, basic pieces usually require a little something extra to help make a look feel interesting and more unique.

Blazer: The Limited (Similar here) Satchel: The Limited |
While this outfit felt polished and professional for work, I would swap out the black blazer for a moto jacket for a super quick day to night switch.
|
Jacket: Torrid (Available here) |
FYI, I normally wear a size 0 at Torrid and sized up to a 1 in this jacket to get a more relaxed and slightly longer fit in this cropped jacket.
I plan on getting the sleeves shortened soon, but otherwise, I'm happy with the fit.

Boots: Target |

Earrings: New York & Company |
Do you have any quick day to night wardrobe tricks? Which look do you prefer?
