TSB: May Rack Up

This rack up should be called "what I wore during the worst allergies of my life." Anyone else affected by the pollen tsunami. Somehow I managed to look put together and get through the entire month with my nose still attached. A good thing because I don't have much to start with. This week however I'm feeling so under the weather - everything feels impossible. Bear with me and send me ALL of the good vibes.

Here's looking back at May:

The weather was pretty awesome (minus the trees attempting to suffocate me) so I took full advantage of baring my legs. Now that we're headed into a rainy week I'm glad to have shown off these hard earned gams - running 13.2 miles ain't easy. 

Which looks were your favs? Any you'd love to see restyled a different way?

Babydoll Season

It's officially summer, in an unofficial way - how many times have you heard advertisers use that term already? Haha, we can't help it but it's the perfect catchphrase for MDW.

It might as well be summer, the humidity is in overdrive and making this pollen tsunami way worse than it needs to be. Regardless, you have to make the most of it so I've been wearing all my sundresses, shifts and babydoll dresses on repeat. 

I also got a few favorites from Tobi.com for my upcoming music festival trips (anyone here going to GovBall or Firefly??). The price is on point and wont guilt you if end up dancing up a sweat-storm at any festival (i.e. me).

I also got this cute little number for Summer Fridays at the office. I dressed it up with a red lip and black shoes. No one does a meeting on a summer Friday so there's no real need to worry about covering my arms. But, if the occasion arises I can always toss on a black cardigan.

Also, if you plan on doing a meeting on a Summer Friday - don't. Make it for Thursday or even Monday instead, trust me when I say people's attention spans will be so much better when you avoid Summer Fridays.

P.s. If any of you are in NYC this week, in particular this Thursday please stop by the Anniversary Celebration for the Limelight Shops. I'll be hosting it along with Lynn Do from NeckbreakinStyle.com and a few other bloggers. RSVP here, stop by and say hi!

Laid Back

Guys, this weekend was amazing! Remember that half I was telling you about, well it happened on Saturday. I managed to get a PR (personal record) and had the most uh-mazing nap after.

In fact a lot of sleeping and eating happened right after the half, can you blame me tho? Also, allergies. They almost made the half impossible but I prevailed without Claritin - still don't know how I was able to breathe. 

After 13.1 miles of running (5 miles of that in the rain) all a girl wants to do is wear birks without offending the office. In fact all I (and my feet) want to do is be comfortable AF. Still, I gotta look, you know presentable.

Enter this amazing maxi long enough to hide all of my guilty pleasures which consist of my white birks and food baby (running really works up an appetite). I was lucky enough to find this top on sale on Shopbop. I've been eyeing it since NYFW 14 - after a long wait I bit the bullet before buyer's remorse set in. Gotta tell you - there are no regrets either! Since a long weekend lies ahead I've been using this large carry-all from Sakroots to help me keep it together.

But, when Monday (yasss Memorial Day) comes over it'll be my beach tote. What are your plans for the long weekend?
