Dressing Up With Joy: Weekend Dressing

May 4, 2013

Where Does The Time Go?

Really where does it go? I mean I always find myself looking for the 25th hour to finish up one last chore! Amid Mili's classes, homework, play dates, household chores, my fitness routine and blog - I usually find myself running (not the good kinda running y'all where you tone the legs - but running where I forgot the library card in my other wallet, or miss the 4:12 subway because the metro card was out of money!) The Monday starts with early morning school bus and Friday ends with the weekend looking expectantly at me for the things we have ~~planned~~ pushed back for Saturday!

And while I am barely finishing up things-to-do, there are Pinterest boards reminding me how other women have a beautiful clean house, perfect menus for entertaining and amazing craft projects they'd be doing with their kids while I refill my metro card! I guess I need to work on my time management (I see another post coming about that!) Or may be I just need to accept the fact that sometimes we need to just let things go a little. So my mantra for this weekend is - a happy house is a messy house, perfect menu is what is sticking on your refrigerator door and the craft activity this Sunday is just snuggling-with-hubs&kiddo-till-the-sun-comes-up -really-high!! As we prepare of another busy weekend at our home, I made up a resolution of letting some things go and just not worry about achieving perfection! As they say - keep calm and enjoy the weekend:-)

Step Into Spring: Easy Weekend Dressing With Avon

Today I am collaborating with Avon to bring to you the spring wardrobe staples. I have to admit, when I think of Avon, the first things that come to mind are cosmetics and skin and hair care products! But Avon have a great selection of apparel and shoes (almost all items are under $50!!) that can enrich any wardrobe, all year round. As spring is finally here (yay! for the 70 degrees in New York!!), it is time say goodbye to winter blues and embrace the cheerful colors of Spring/Summer and Avon is here to help you pick out your Spring essentials and get ready for weekend, work or a party!

The cap toes shoes have been a big trend lately and these stylish and super comfortable cushioned flats in bright ocean colors are a treat to the soles!

A wardrobe staple – the chambray shirt – is oh so chic this season paired with leggings for the weekend or a pencil skirt for the office! Layer it with a trench and you can take this versatile piece well into fall! For just $24.99, this Avon chambray shirt is a steal! I love the length of it as I can tuck it in with a skirt or belt it up over leggings or skinny jeans.
