I've been doing battle with a cold for about the last 3 weeks.  The cold seems to be winning.  Everyone at home has been sick and no matter how much we medicate and Lysol (v.), we can't get rid of this bug.  Ugh!  And as much as I would love to convalesce while luxuriating in my bed all day, that ain't gonna happen.  Life and responsibilities aren't taking a break because I have a cough and a runny nose.

And as much as I'd rather be home in my pajamas, I still have my daily errands to run.  And I'm NOT that chick that would ever be caught dead out in public in PJs!  Just as sure as I step out the house looking crazy, that'll be the day I'd have to get out of the car for whatever reason while picking Mikaela up from school.  She'd be horrified! LOL

So even when I'm feeling cruddy and must be seen in public, I default to my go to style of comfort, pull my hair back (since it's grown out), add blush, bronzer, lipstick and a pair of oversized sunglasses.

Wearing:  wrap cardi (similar to THIS); Helmut Lang dress (old, similar to THIS); faux leather leggings (similar to THESE); BCBG boots (old, similar to THESE).
