Weekend workouts or anytime of the week for that matter are my me time, the one time in my rather busy schedule that I don’t check my work phone, that I don’t check my many WhatsApp group chats but solely focus on me and my wellbeing. I don’t just workout to stay healthy but to decompress, regain energy and let all those toxins out of me quite literally. That being said, working out and looking cute are a combo. Even in the off days when you’re feeling lazy, a good playful powersuit puts me in the right mood immediately. This weekender playsuit from Left on Friday does just does.

And just like that we are halfway through May! Let’s get ready for spring and summer office wear. This structured Veronica Beard vest is sleek, sophisticated and can be worn with matching pants or with white pants or jeans for casual Fridays. You can easily recreate this look as you probably already have these pieces laying on your closet. Veronica Beard makes really nice, sophisticated pieces that are meant to last and are versatile that you can take from the office to dinner and to brunch on the weekend. I usually get mine when Shopbop is having big sales. My Attersee is another favorite. Mango and Zara have great options at affordable prices.

I see you, you are a busy woman who wants to lean into getting dressed with ease. It doesn’t have to be perfect, but you want to feel like you, use your wardrobe with a few new items here and there because if it’s a good deal you want to take it. I’ve got you. This is my go-to choice for an ease look when I just want to go the beach club for a leisurely afternoon. The best thing is that you can recreate this look with pieces you already own. Grab a pareo, a print casual skirt, a white tee or bodysuit and some sort of beachy accessories to elevate your look from a casual pool outfit of the day to a sophisticated sunset outfit of the day.

Back to DC content because spring and business casual dresses are my cardio. Also Memorial Day is 3 weeks away, how did that happen?! Back to business. I borrowed this bright red lightweight tweed dress from my friend. So cute but I would have gotten the size 2 if I was buying it just to have a little more wiggle room or I would have sewed the front just to play it safe. The shape is what I always look for and what works for my petite body. I’m a dress girl through and through. Midweight dress, crew neck dress, mini length dress translate to spring and summer office dress, business casual outfit for the months to come.
