Happy Monday, ladies! I hope you all had an awesome weekend. Things are revving up like crazy around here. We’ve gotten some news recently that will mean HUGE changes in our lives, some of which will affect the blog – though not negatively! The first thing I can share is that from February to April, we will have to go back down to 3 posts per week. The reason why is still under wraps, but after April, we’ll reevaluate and hopefully be able to go back to 5 per week. I already have all of January’s posts planned out, and most of them are photographed. So, barring more weather limitations, all the posts for the month should go up as normal.

Speaking of weather difficulties, here is the post from last week THAT WE SHOT 3 TIMES before the photos came out! Whew, #bloggerproblems. Anyway, check out Winter 2016 Formula #2 below!

Like I said, shooting this outfit was a challenge, but I’m glad it finally worked out because I really adore it. It’s the perfect easy outfit for a cocktail night. If you’re super busy, but still have time to change completely, a formulaic cocktail night look like this is perfect. You can save time, and focus on other aspects like your hair or make up if you’d like, and trust that you’re look will be the epitome of chic. I also love these cocktail night formulas for nights when I’m really not feeling it, but I know a night out with the girls is just what I need to boost my mood, and the formula gets me out the door!

P.S. If you don’t have time to change after work, check out the Cubicle to Cocktail series.
