vacay mode

Pants- Ricki's; Blouse- Banana Republic (Gifted from ML); Necklace- Thrifted; Heels- Walmart; Purse- Aldo
I checked out mentally at around 11 a.m. this morning because I'm already in vacation mode! So I did what any slacker would do and went to the gym, ate lunch and left the office by 1 p.m (I just couldn't put my heart into writing work e-mails!)  I leave tomorrow morning for San Diego and I still have to clean the apartment (because there's nothing worse than coming back from a relaxing trip to a mess!), do laundry and well there's that whole issue of packing.  I'm an awful packer- I bring way too many clothes and end up buying new outfits when I'm there, leaving very little suitcase space for error.  This time I am going to try and pack as light as I can with cute skirts, fun accessories and breezy tops for San Diego and bikinis, dresses and sun hats for Hawaii. 


I absolutely love this necklace I bought at a local consignment shop, Rikochet Resale
It's not farewell just yet- since my man is in work conferences when we're in San Diego and relaxation is not my strong point, I plan on doing some blogging next week from the comfort of the Hilton!

    Please blog from my lovely state of California. Too bad you aren't closer to me. We could go shopping and have lunch while your man is in his meetings.

    Have a wonderful vacay!

    xoxo,

    I like how in the absence of color your necklace and bag pop. And that necklace truly is a gem. Plus I like the flowy top. (: And I totally cannot blame you for not focusing at the office, haha.

    Take me with youuuuuu!!!!
    I am the same way when it comes to packing. I pack way too much. I always end up buying new stuff. Then, I have a hell of a time trying to get everything home in the same suitcase. Usually, I end up buying another suitcase while on vacation.
    ... I think that is a disease.
    Have fun on vacay!!!

    I hope you have a great vacation! I too can't stand the idea of coming home to a messy house, pre trip cleaning is always mandatory!

One of my daily joys is reading the lovely comments you leave. It may take a day or two (or three, depending on how hectic life gets!) but I will stop by your slice of the blogosphere soon! xo Emily
