Off Duty

Today’s outfit, I’ve dubbed Off Duty.

Not like a model, but like a New York City taxi — it’s like I’m on my way to the garage for a shift switch.

Or something like that. As you may know, I have a few days off of work this week. Bliss, right?

False. For some, that might mean spa pedicures and catching up on the Netflix queue, but for me, that means — well, life and shit. Bridesmaid fittings, long-overdue post office pick-ups, squeezing in meetings and answering as many e-mails as possible until Carpal Tunnel syndrome sets in. (Is it weird that Danity Kane’s Daaamaged just played in my head?)

This isn’t a pity plea, I just know you can relate. Can’t a girl get another hour in her day?

On the bright side, I don’t plan to leave my apartment in anything other than my off-the-clock outfits, which typically consist of oversized outerwear, cozy knits, moto boots and #leggingsaspants.

Yep, that’s right. The Equipment blouse is there to cover my ass, Pants Patrol, so take a seat.

**PS: I did something bad last night — I bought the Tibi Piper booties that I’ve been eyeing for MONTHS! They’re on sale at Tibi.com right now, and you get an extra 15% off with the code NEWSLETTER. I had to, Mom. I had to!

  1. I feel that with a flannel tied around your waist some 90s grunge or alternative rock should have popped in your head rather than Danity Kane! I kid, well somewhat. And those boots you are wearing are going to be pissed when your new boots arrive because there is going to be an awesome boots battle going on in your closet.

  2. Ummm I’m obsessed with the Tibi Piper booties! And those RM booties you’re wearing in this post! And while we’re at it your 3.1 Phillip Lim booties…basically all of your booties….. #bootieenvy

    Totally digging your off duty look! I’m thinking I need some faux leather leggings asap.
