Big news! I’m going back to work in August! OMG! On the one hand, I’m super excited to go back to work after nine years. But on the other hand, I’m a bit scared. I have been away for 9 years doing other things and enjoying being free and not tied to any work-related responsibilities.
And of course my kids. My older one will start grade three in September and my younger one will start his kindergarten journey. To tell you the truth I have no idea how that will go. Will he love it? Will he hate it? How often will he have a runny nose and other health problems, which means that (probably) I will have to stay home with him because I can’t take him to the kindergarten if he is not well? If he is like his brother then I will be more at home with him than at the work for the first two years 🙁
Stripes and floral outfit for summer
Stripes and floral outfit for summer. The weather here in Estonia has been lovely and so I have been mostly wearing shorts and tanktops. On Saturday I mowed the lawn and ended up with red shoulders. That meant that on Sunday it was time to wear something with sleeves, and the floral print blouse from SheIn is just perfect for that.
I paired my floral blouse with a pair of striped shorts. These are super comfy and just ideal for warm and sunny days.
I accessorized my stripes and floral outfit with a pair of rose gold sandals, a white watch, and a yellow crossbody bag.
And yes, my shoes and bag don’t match! When it comes to my yellow Michael Kors crossbody bag then it is something I have actually used quite a lot lately. It has just the right size to fit my mobile, a few cards, keys, and car keys.
My rose gold Marco Tozzi sandals are new. I ordered these a few weeks ago along with a pair of yellow Ipanema sandals. Both pairs were discounted so I ended up only 36€ which was great. I mean, I wear shoes in size EU41 or EU42 (although my Skechers size is EU 40) depending on the brand, and usually, it is almost impossible to find anything in those sizes at a sale. So I was super happy when I stumbled on those sandals and I’m even happier that both pairs fit perfectly.
What I wore
- floral print blouse
- DL1961 Foster Relaxed shorts
- rose gold Marco Tozzi sandals
- yellow Michael Kors crossbody bag
- white ceramic Michael Kors watch

I love this fun summery pattern mix, Leelo! Super cute outfit! Your yellow bag is really great. I wish you much luck returning to work! I can totally relate to the concern about what to do though if you end up with a sick child who cannot go to school. But it will all work itself out!

Leelo,
How wonderful for you that you’ll be starting a new job this summer. There is something to be said for being out and among people plus like of all the great work outfits you’ll be putting together. Your floral and stripes look for summer has a lovely balance of patterns and color.
