I’ve been trying to wear a real outfit after work instead of putting on lounging clothes so I can actually wear my non-work clothes more often, so I threw on this little number. Super easy and just as comfortable as flannel pants. 😉
Dress: a tiny boutique in Soho, NYC; Sandals: Dolce Vita; locket necklace: J.Crew; Rose Gold Watch: Michael Kors; bracelet: J.Crew (here’s a similar one that’s still available); Earrings: antique store; “Perfect Top Knot”: A Cup of Jo; Dog Bowl: Pets Supplies Plus 😉

So cool that you woke up at 5:30am to work out. I’ve tried on many occasions but have not been successful. Do you have any advice on how to keep awake?
Ummm well I’m not *that* good…considering that I slept through the alarm this morning!
But to stay awake, I have to go to bed no later than 10, have a cup of coffee in the morning and get up and move around a lot at work – standing at my desk, standing during conference calls, etc. And drinking a lot of water seems to help!
Thanks for posting! I was definitely one of the ones who asked. 🙂 I think part of my problem is that I only have 8 lb. weights hanging around the house. I think I’d better bite the bullet and get me some 15-20 lb ones. Like you say, can’t be scared of the heavy ones. 🙂
You’re welcome! Yes, definitely up your weights! You want to be really really struggling at the end of each muscle group set of 12-15. You’ll be amazed at the difference. 🙂
I need to take a cue from you and stop wearing lounging clothes around the house every day of my life!
Holy 2-minute plank PLUS side plank! That’s awesome.
I’ve also been trying to look less slouchy after work. It’s tough in this heat!
I was totally shaking by the end of the planks!
Seriously, the heat makes it harder! But a dress is so comfy and cool!
Love that arm workout! I’ll have to try it some time
I hope you like it when you try it!
Why do you drink hot water with lemon? (just curious!)
I also agree about the need to wear real clothes and not lounge clothes…I work from home, so wear lounge clothes all day long! But when I do actually get dressed, I feel so much better (and I’m sure my fiance appreciates it too, haha)
I find that hot water with lemon gets my digestive system, ahem, moving in the morning. 🙂 I should do a post about it – that’s the main reason why, but I’ve also read that it’s good for detoxing too.
oooh, i want to wear lounge clothes to work and then dress up afterwards! Let’s switch 😉
This workout looks great. Definitely going to try. Thanks
I hope you like it!
Cute dress, mamasita! Dresses are seriously the secret for looking put together with no effort. ESPECIALLY here in the summer. They really do end up being just as comfy as lounge pants!
