It’s been a great week, albeit a little too warm for mid-October. Here’s to a weekend with equal parts adventure and relaxation! But first: outfits and some extra fun snapshots of the week!

Monday was on the chillier side… or at least I wanted to believe it was! After work I headed to a new voice lesson to help me with my audition book. I wasn’t expecting to learn so much breath support technique in that first lesson… it’s really been eye-opening!

• Sleeveless button-up blouse, H&M
• Cardigan, Forever 21
• Dark skinny jeans, Gap
• Brown booties, DSW

This little number should be an eye-roller by now! I wear it a lot, and I’ve had the dress for, like, 10 years. Whatevaaaaaa.

• Dress, Ross
• Denim vest, Nordstrom Rack

On Tuesday I also got my flapper costume for a Speakeasy-themed Halloween party we’re going to next weekend. I ordered it from Amazon, and it fits like a glove! Tuesday night we went for a 4.5-mile run, too. Boom.

Harper loves to follow me wherever I go… even if it means putting up with boring photo sessions.

• navy dress, Stitch Fix (one of my fave Stitch Fix keeps of all time!)
• orange cardigan, Ann Taylor, an amazing Goodwill find!
• beige booties, Target
• necklace, don’t remember…
• puppy, The Cute Factory

Thursday the editorial team of Mountain Living and Colorado Homes & Lifestyles went on an art safari around the creative district and downtown Denver! But first, we met up at Sassafras for a delectable brunch (second breakfast for me!):

We just had to split some beignets!

I got the Fried Green Tomatoes Benedict, which did not disappoint. I was full for the next five hours! The only other time I’d been to Sassafras was after a 9-mile run with Nick over a year ago, and it was just as good as I remembered.

After brunch, we headed to numerous art galleries around town: Walker Fine Art, William Havu Gallery, Goodwin Fine Art, David Cook Fine Art, David B. Smith Gallery, Robischon Art Gallery, and the Museum of Contemporary Art Denver. We finished with a coffee at the MCA rooftop bar. My job is not too shabby, you guys.

Here are a few photos of our “safari.”

Yes, that’s a Pez Dispenser collection… and just a small section of it!

This installation was inspired after the artist visited Rome… all the selfie sticks!

I had the bright idea to take a selfie in the selfie sticks. So basic.

Then we decided to get really dorky and take a thousand levels of selfies. Birds of a feather! Sorry for this photo, Michelle. 🙂

Thursday night, I did intervals on the treadmill at the gym, which Nick did some speed work around the park. It was tough and I really didn’t want to do it, but it felt so good to power through that slump and feel better afterward.

Friday, October 20, 2017

Thank Goodness it’s Friday! It’s been such a great week, but I’m still excited for the weekend. 🙂 Tonight we’re taking Harper to a Paw School class; tomorrow we’ve got a long run scheduled and a Halloween Movie Watching Party; and Sunday leaves room for improvisation!

• T shirt, Target
• leggings, Aerie (dumpster find)
• Nike sneaks, DSW (becoming a Friday tradition)

What’s on your weekend agenda?
