Moody Style: Antique Floral

I’m a little late in posting about my obsession with J.Crew’s Antique Floral collection, but that’s okay, right?  Better late than never is what I always say.  Anyways, back to me talking about my love for the antique floral pattern.  I think that this pattern is so versatile and feminine. And it seems that I wasn’t the only one considering there are only a few pieces available on the site.  I only wish I had gotten the pencil skirt before it sold out. Do you have a favorite pattern from J.Crew that you wish they would bring back? Let me know in the comments.

Moody Style: Denim and Stripes

Last night, I just realized that I haven’t written anything on my blog yet for the month of June and we’re already on the 9th days.  Yikes, I don’t know where the time went.  I need to get better about that.  Well, I’m flying down to Miami again for another work trip, so I figured I’ll start writing this post during my flight.  I should be doing actual work for my job, but who wants to do that on the plane.  I’ll be down in South Florida until Thursday, so be sure to check out my Instagram for more up to date posts of my comings and goings.  I’m pretty sure there will be another Jugo Fresh visit while I’m down there.  I’m obsessed with their açaí bowls.  I’ve tried to recreate them at home, but my version is no match for their delicious goodness.  Have you ever tried to recreate a drink or a meal at home after thinking about it for days, weeks or even months?  Were you successful with coming up with your own copycat recipe?  Let me know in the comments.

Moody Style: Anchored Down

I just got back in town from a quick trip to Dallas, TX for a work meeting.  I’m literally home for a night with enough time to unpack and repack for another trip.  Traveling for work was fun and a little glamorous the first few times I had to do it.  However, the unending parade of hotel rooms, living out of my suitcase, and standing in long lines for airport security is quickly losing its charm.  I can see how people can get worn down from doing this for too long.  The only way to maintain my sanity is coming home and sleeping in my own bed even if it’s just for one night.  I love feeling anchored down with some normalcy and the comforts of home.  It always perks me back up and gets me going for the next trip. Do any of you travel for work or pretty often? How you do recoup after a long trip? Let me know in the comments.
