A TAD TIRED

This has been a busy (and warm!) week. It’s starting to feel like the Grease rehearsal schedule is catching up with me… but that just means this long holiday weekend is well-deserved and perfectly timed!

Take a look at the outfits from this past week: the good, the bad, and the ugly.

FRIDAY, MAY 20

Wet hair, don’t care. Thursday nights and Friday mornings are rough, as the sleep deprivation builds after rehearsals Tuesday-Thursday. It was nice and summery weather on Friday, so I opted for this dress.

  • Lace-top black maxi dress, Forever 21
  • Reef sandals (not pictured)

SATURDAY, MAY 21

This was my quick-change, casual look for Date Night at Zengo Denver.

  • sleeveless, floral top, Francesca’s (sale rack)
  • dark-wash skinny jeans, Gap
  • black flats, Target

Old Navy dry-fit workout tank top, palm frond running tights from REI | THE REAL LIFE | Outfits of the Week series, clothing, style, fashion, thrifty, dresses, casual office attire, running

SUNDAY, MAY 22

After an early-morning 7.5-mile run in Wash Park, I quickly showered and got into more workout attire for my 4-hour dance rehearsal. All the movement on a Sunday!

  • blue and green sports bra, Target (sale! $5)
  • salmon dry-fit workout tank top, Old Navy (see more here)
  • palm-frond running tights, REI

MONDAY, MAY 23

Ready to get to work! Ramping up for a long weekend means needing to get ahead on content output. In this picture, I think you can tell I’m caffeinated and ready!

  • striped T-shirt, American Eagle
  • black skinny jeans, Gap
  • black flats, Target
  • blue pendant necklace, Francesca’s

Ripped skinny jeans from Gap, flowy black top from Target, wedges | THE REAL LIFE | Outfits of the Week series, clothing, style, fashion, thrifty, dresses, casual office attire, running

TUESDAY, MAY 24

Ready for more work, followed by Grease rehearsal (running through all of Act 2). It was a long, tiring day—at least it started out looking well-rested!

  • ripped skinny jeans, Gap
  • black flowy top, Target
  • multi-colored wedges, hand-me-down

Dillard's dress with teal belt, Target flats | THE REAL LIFE | Outfits of the Week series, clothing, style, fashion, thrifty, dresses, casual office attire, running

WEDNESDAY, MAY 24

I always think it’s funny that when I’m truly exhausted, I reach for a dress. I mean, it makes sense: It’s quick, and it’s just one piece of clothing to worry about. But this looks all put-together, despite how out-of-it I was.

  • floral dress, Dillards (I think?)
  • teal dress belt, Kohls
  • black flats, Target (they got a lot of wear this week)

Gray tank from Gap, skinny jeans from Gap, DSW black booties | THE REAL LIFE | Outfits of the Week series, clothing, style, fashion, thrifty, dresses, casual office attire, running

THURSDAY, MAY 25

Skipped a morning shower (I’m just going to run after work/before rehearsal, so why even bother) and went for a messy ponytail with a headband. Whatever.

  • gray tank, Gap
  • blue skinny jeans, Gap
  • black booties, DSW
  • no-slip headband, BicBands (I love these for running!)

Annnnnd that’s a wrap!

WHICH DAY WAS YOUR FAVE?

    Love your outfit choices – practical as well as chic. If I had to pick one it would be the cute dress with the teal belt but I like the stripes and also the last photo with the grey t shirt and pony tail. Thanks for following my blog, Le Chic En Rose! I’m now following yours too and look forward to more outfit posts, best wishes Rosemary 🙂
