Post Vacation Stress Disorder

January 13, 2015

Sweater: Loft (similar) | Shirt: J.Crew (similar) | Cords: Loft | Boots: Corso Como (old) | Purse: Michael Michael Kors (similar) | Necklace: J.Crew (similar)|Watch: Marc by Marc Jacobs (similar) | Bracelet: Stella & Dot (old)| Lipstick: Bobbi Brown (Warm Beige) | Lip Gloss: Smashbox Limitless Long Wear (Endless)

Last week was my first day back in the office after the holidays. I can’t recall ever being away from work for that long. It was so relaxing. I now understand the importance of time off and can’t wait for my next vacation.

Going back to work was rough. I found it difficult to adjust to my normal routine. My sleep and workout schedule were completely out of whack.

I purchased this sweater a couple years ago. I normally wear it with cranberry cords and ankle boots, but decided to change things up and wear these rose cords with riding boots.

Hope you’re all having a good week. Thanks for reading.

    Lovely outfit, Asa! You look stunning!
    I hope you will get into the routine of things again soon at work. 🙂 It’s just getting past the initial shock to the system.

      I totally agree. Once I get past the initial shock I should be fine. Thanks for the encouragement. 🙂

    Poor thing, it’s tough re-aligning yourself with work after any vacation.
    But on the other hand, you look great!

    Cute cute cute! I love how you paired this look with cords and also mentioned how to style your last look with cords. I don’t have any and I usually don’t consider them but after seeing this post I wouldn’t mind having a few pairs! The statement necklace is beautiful as well- I hope adjusting to the routine has gotten easier for you! I always find the longer I’m away the harder it is to go back. Happy Sunday!
