Today’s outfit is linked at the end of this post! PS- I am obsessed with this sweater (I know we tend to overuse that word, and I try to use it sparingly).
This Morning: We had Blaise (my in-laws’ cocker spaniel whom we love) stay with us last night which was so much fun. This morning I woke up super early, walked Blaise then grabbed coffee with a friend!
Today’s to-do: Another start to the week, another typical Monday! The usual workday from 8:30-6, then I’m working on some fun blog stuff tonight. We setup our new bedding and end tables in our primary bedroom yesterday, so I feel like dwelling in there while I work for a bit!
Today’s intention: Remind myself of my why. I took some time to rest and reset in my free time over the last few months. At first it was kind of just July, then it rolled into August and I think I really needed it! I definitely felt the burnout. But now, I find myself organically sitting down to work on blog projects or go out and have unplugged fun with friend. It’s almost as if life kind of started a new chapter. I keep reminding myself of my why, why I created Simply Elsa, why I needed rest, and why I love sharing in this space (even if my content isn’t for everyone – which I know it isn’t, lol), and it makes it a happy, pressure-free zone.

I have a very similar outfit on today! Camel cashmere crew neck and jeans. I am LOVING today’s weather in South Jersey!
Just love that sweater! Sometimes a new garment can make you look especially fresh after one has taken the necessary time to re-calibrate, rest and re-focus. Looks great on you!
