Cool, Casual and Comfortable In Joggers

Hello! Today I'm featuring a relaxed, comfy style that I shopped from my closet, a few cupcake moments and details for a trucker hat giveaway!

Before I get started, let me just say that the days are beginning to converge together! Selling one house, while buying another, all the while packing up life is no joke! We celebrated 4th of July by cleaning out the storage building, attic and a head start on the garage. UGH! That was overwhelming at times, but thankfully we continue to make progress out there.

There's only a week and a day until our scheduled closing on this house so we are at full throttle around here.


However, on Sunday we decided to take a break from packing and all things moving and rest!


It felt so good to put aside the packing monotony and feel "normal" for the day. It felt so good to wear decent clothes!  Just the same, I didn't want to think too hard about what to wear, so I chose these joggers for my outfit because of how cool and comfortable they are. The navy top was an easy match and from there I went to the age, old classic of pearls. I prefer shoes with height when I wear these pants, so I grabbed my neutral wedges and then topped off the outfit with a hat - pun intended!


As for the purse, it is on constant repeat because it goes with everything and has become my favorite summer accessory. :) Btw, American Eagle just came out with another option that I like more! If it goes on sale...wink, wink. Click HERE to check it out.

Outfit Breakdown:
Hat: Banana Republic (old)
Top: GAP (old)
Joggers: LOFT (old)
Shoes: Famous footwear
Purse: American Eagle (Latest Option)
Necklace and Bracelet: Premier Designs (NecklaceBracelet)

Cupcake Adventures!

With our departure date looming, I've been dropping in at Splat everyday. Last week I realized that I only had 17 days left, so that began the countdown.  For the most part, my schedule and mood determine what happens with those free cupcakes.

I may hand one out to an older gentleman in the parking lot of Aldi because he insisted I go in front of him at the register...

Yes, I was too chicken to ask for a picture...so a drive by shot is what I left with. 
I may stay a visit awhile, especially if I see friends there...


My packing helpers may strongly suggest we take a packing break and head to Splat...


I may meet a friend, savoring face to face conversation before it becomes a rare occurrence.



I love them all, but the most adventurous ones continue to be the deliveries...


Happy Birthday Anson!


Well, today it's back to the packing game so I'll close with cyber hugs and see you back here soon! ;)

Oh! And there is a trucker hat giveaway that went live on my Instagram last night. Hop on over and check it out...GIVEAWAY

Big Hugs!

  3. It'll be so sad when your cupcake adventure ends, Chrissy!! You'll have to find another store like it to take it's place. I bet you just make everyone's day when they get a cupcake!!
    And I can totally relate to the moving and packing---and we are only helping Nancy. But I was a tired pup this weekend....

  4. Saying goodbye to Splat is making me sad! They are going to miss you and your precious family, the community will miss your sweet soul.
    Now that outfit - I love it! Yes, comfy and cool joggers are the way to go especially when you look so stylish! I love the hat and wedges too - I agree, joggers need a heel!
    Hang in there friend, this all seems to be going so seamlessly, you know He is directing it all!
