when monday morning arrives on our doorstep many of us scramble to put together an outfit that will take us to the office in style. sometimes, a look we’ve worn the day before might be perfectly fine after a few minor tweaks. take my ootd which was worn for sunday brunch. this outfit has all the major ingredients of nine-to-five chic – button-up, cardigan, statement necklace and pointy-toed flats are all items i reach for time-and-again for the office. but what if the bermuda shorts are exchanged with a pencil skirt (a-line) or a pair of black trousers? suddenly, this look has been converted into office-appropriate. so the next time you’re in a rush to bring together monday magic simply think conversion. it just might save you precious time.
happy monday!

Very nice! Love the hat…you wear a hat very well. I had your blog up on my computer the other day and hubs walked in and said, “What are you doing in that picture?”. In certain shots we bear more than a passing resemblance.
wow! they always say you have a twin somewhere in the world. that’s great!
