A Casual Office Look

Happy Hump Day!

I’ve been a mess today! Last fall I tried to put the boys in a MDO (mother’s day out) program and everything was full! One of the churches I was recommended to by several moms in my area had told me to call back in February to sign up the boys for Fall of 2016. Well, yesterday I called and sure enough they have a spot open for Colin to finish off this year! As much as I didn’t want to sign him up without Jadyn, it was the only way I could get Jadyn priority on the waiting list and to have them regristered early for Fall 2016

Last night I was laying in bed and all I kept thinking about was how I am not ready to let Colin go to class. There is no doubt in my mind that I will be crying tomorrow when I drop him off. It’s so funny because I was looking forward to having a little break to myself and being able to run errands all alone, and now I’m over here like “NOOOOOOOOO, I’M NOT READY”. Thankfully, I have had tons of mamas to comfort me in letting me know that this is a good thing, and that more than anything seeing how much fun they will have in school is worth it.

So enough of that and on to the outfit…

When I worked the 9 to 5, my favorite day was not Friday because of the weekend, but I loved it because it was casual Friday’s at work! We actually had casual Thursdays and Fridays! This look is a perfect casual office look! You have your trench coat that takes up the outfit a notch and adds a bit of sophistication to the look. Depending on how casual your office allows you can choose to cuff your jeans or leave it! For the office I would suggest keeping your accessories to a minimal. The office is not a place to go all out, less is always more!

If your on your feet a lot, or you have a lot of walking to do, these flats are perfect, and SO comfortable, the quality is impeccable! I have been able to run around after the boys in them and love them! I love the snake print, it’s just enough to add a bit of flair to any outfit, and the t-straps make them sophisticated and incredibly classy! Bonus points for them being under $100!
