When: July 10 // Weather: 80s // Real life: driving to Michigan, exploring South Haven

(These pictures were taken in an almost empty park, so no mask needed, but I put it on for a couple photos just to show you the “full look.”)

I hate wearing a mask and I’m not afraid to say it. I try to think of them as a new fun accessory, but I forget all about that once the sweat mustache forms. I put one on when I have to and take it off as soon as I can.

But the important part is…I wear one, even though it’s obnoxious. And I am oh so appreciative when I see other people wearing them because I know what a pain in the ass they are (the masks, not the people probably). One day we’ll get to look back on this time and laugh and say, “remember when we all went around looking like bank robbers?” In the meantime, we can all stand in solidarity and annoyance together.

I am fortunate that I get to abstain from wearing a mask most of the time because I can work from home, get things delivered, and go outside without getting close to other people. But a couple weeks ago we took a little vacation up to Michigan and definitely got lots of use out of our masks! I’ll share more about our trip and what steps we took to stay safe in my next few posts, so stay tuned (and wear your mask, please)!

We started transitioning back to the office at the end of June, and a couple weeks later, we reversed course. It’s fine. I got what I wanted out of in-the-office work for the time being, which was: a couple cute business casual looks and a chance to print a shipping label for my own personal use.

This outfit has been in my head for months and it turned out almost as good as it looked in my head. Who else has “real world” outfits they’re saving up? And who is just showing off their #lewks to their uninterested pets?
