Monday is upon us again. <sigh> I spent the weekend cleaning for my best friend to come in to town from Houston next weekend, watching the Harry Potter marathon on ABC Family, and recovering for a bout of bronchitis. A Z pack and an inhaler later and I might ACTUALLY make it to all of my bootcamp classes this week. No promises though;-) I’m really bummed, because my trainer has put in her 2 weeks notice and this will be her last week teaching bootcamp! She was part of the reason I loved it so much and I am really sad to see her go:( I’m hoping they find someone to take over or else bootcamp may be over! I have been seeing all sorts of Groupon deals for work out activities lately though, so maybe I will try a few of those for the remainder of the fall/winter and then start an outdoor bootcamp again in the spring. All I know is that I need to continue with working out, especially now that the BF and I have signed up for our SECOND half marathon!

This outfit is one I wore to work a week or two ago just after I got back from visiting my parents in Dallas. I had seen a couple cute black and white striped shift dresses at Target, but the shift style USUALLY doesn’t work on me. So, when I saw this one that actually had some shape to it, I knew I needed it! My Mom agreed that it was adorable, so I knew it was a winner. Let’s say, I have worn it to work twice in the two weeks I have owned it, and I don’t hate it one bit:) I love pattern mixing these days, so obviously I had to throw in a little floral there with the scarf, and let’s be honest, pearls go with everything so they were a must have as well! There you have it, today’s outfit!
Does anyone else out there have a really great work out program that they do along side the running when training for marathons? Let me know, because I would love to get a little variety in my work outs!
I ADORE black and white striped dresses:) Such a cute outfit!
Thanks, Joanna! This dress is my new favorite!
You should sign up for my online training program! It’d be the perfect addition to your running. Email me if you’re interested. Happy Monday! XOXO
I will, I will! I am so excited!
I love this entire look! Stripes and floral definitely go together very well.
Thanks, Carly! I love how it turned out!
I LOVE this outfit! I scarf and dress go so well together! I love when people mix prints, it always turns out so cute <3
Thanks! Pattern mixing is one of my favorite ways to mix up my style!
Ah perfect pattern mixing!! I used to go to a yoga class because I LOVED the instructor–now I do it at home since she left and its still fun

I wear scarves every day and have never seen one tied like that, I love it! I like stripes but also have to find the right one otherwise I look short and dumpy!

Ooooh signing up for your second marathon, so you’re hooked hey? I thought about signing up for the Nike women’s half marathon next year – but it terrifies me.
LOVE a good striped dress, especially paired with a fun scarf.
I am hooked! I was so scared before the first one, but it was actually not as bad as I thought it would be!
LOVE the pattern mixing and I’m always afraid of shift dresses as well…..and sometimes horizontal stripes but you totally pull this off! It all looks great on you!!!!!
Thanks, Michelle! Shift dresses don’t give me any shape…
