Welcome to the next outfit in my Work From Home Wardrobe Series where I display the cute outfits I’m wearing while working from home during the coronavirus pandemic.

Today’s outfit is more comfort than style and is brought to you by the need for more coffee! I didn’t sleep well last night, and this morning Nick tried to be very sweet by setting the delay brew on the coffee pot last night so it would be ready for us first thing but forgot that the timer wasn’t set so it actually brewed my coffee at midnight instead of 6 am! By the time we got up, the coffee was cold and old. I tried reheating it in the microwave but I LOATHE reheated coffee (because it always tastes burnt to me) so I just couldn’t do it. I had to make a fresh pot.

Hi, everybody!

As I mentioned in my last post, I’m starting this new series called Work from Home Wardrobe (WFHW) to display the outfits I’m wearing while I try to get some work done at my house during the coronavirus pandemic stay-at-home orders while trying to take care of a three year old. My intention is for this to be a fun, but it’s also because I’ve discovered that I am *much* more productive if I get up and go through the usual motions each morning: style my hair, put on a little bit of make up, and get dressed. So, let’s kick this series off, shall we?!

Hi, dear readers!

I hope you all are doing well in these uncertain and trying times of dealing with the Covid-19 (coronavirus) pandemic.

Both Nick and I have been working from home for the past two weeks and we’ve pulled Sebastian from daycare. As a public health professional, practicing social distancing to flatten the curve is very important to me so we’re doing all we can to be a part of the solution instead of the problem. We’re only going out to grab groceries and even then, Nick goes by himself. I make him take disinfecting wipes with him to use when he touches anything and then when he gets home he washes his hands very well.

Last year I created and failed pretty miserably at a 19 in 2019: A list of 19 things to do in the year 2019. Since I only did a few of them – far less than I ever imagined – I’d like to pick it up again this year and try to complete some of those things I had wanted to do then. The things I did accomplish this past year were: attend a wine tasting, put down new floors, paint and renovate the laundry room, and bake a fancy cake. That’s 4 out of 19; I told you I failed miserably. For this year, I’ll include the ones I didn’t do plus 6 more and they can serve as my New Year’s resolutions.

So, in no particular order, here are my 20 things to do in 2020:

Welcome back to another outfit round up! This is the first round up I’ve had of outfits I’ve worn since starting my new job. Our dress code is about the same as any other nonprofit/academic institution which is business casual and jeans are fine. I’ve been trying to dress it up and get back into my professional style & mindset. These are a sampling of the outfits I’ve worn in the last few weeks that are trying to be *slightly* more business and less casual.

Loving these outfits.

Obviously bathroom lighting isn’t ideal for outfit photos and the lighting in the restroom at my new office is the worst. It’s really hard to get the color of my clothes in these photos. My navy blue pants, gray skirts, and brown tights all look darker than they actually are but hopefully you get the gist.
