End Notes:

As crazy as it may seem, I am so ready to have a full, five day work week. After two weekends in a row of leaving town on Friday and having to cram in a full week of work in four days, I’m ecstatic to not have to worry about a Wednesday night spent packing or a Friday full of travel.

Unsurprisingly, jersey is a pregnant lady’s best friend; it’s stretchy, breathable, and wrinkle free. But to keep myself from becoming too slouchy while I’m campus, I’m trying to smarten things up today with my favorite red wedges and a short sleeved khaki jacket. Those little polished bits don’t hamper my corporeal comfort level at all, but they do help me maintain a level of focus that will come in handy for a day at the library.

    I love that printed top. The whole outfit works so well together. I love it when an outfit achieves both comfort and chic.

    That print really is gorgeous. And I so admire your dedication to keeping a smart, pulled-together look throughout your pregnancy. Rock on, lady.
