8-23-2026 MY WEEK: sweet action

it was one of those work weeks that totally drained me. working late, running to meetings, hell i even worked a bit overtime on friday! i was exhausted from that and keeping up with my steps on the leaderboard.

saturday totally brought me back to life. one of our friends, arijana, was getting married. sib and i were excited to have our bestie morg do our hair beforehand, and we felt like princesses. new tradition unlocked: no more formal events without besite morg by our side! we had a blast catching up, snacking, and pampering ourselves.

if you've never been to a croatian wedding, you're missing out on a whole night extravaganza. it was a blast celebrating the bride and groom and catching up with people, dancing, and naturally, drinking away.

this week's looks

i admit, i feel like i have a hard time putting in effort for my walking looks. but now that i've been adding more time for my workouts, and i've been biking and walking outside so much more, i am trying to be more conscious of looking a bit cute too, i think athleisure can look really sick (positive context) when styled correctly. while i never put emphasis on sportwear as much as sib usually does, i think it's time i do better.

monday walk. here's an example of minimal effort... studio ghibli tee, polo sweatpants, sneakers and sojos sunnies. at least the sunnies gave off tom ford vibes.















monday work. a simple black turtleneck top and cream toned trousers. loafers, versace sunnies, uniqlo tote and a variety of metals.

tuesday walk: a charcoal tee and speedo shorts, sneakers and versace sunnies. for work i wore a hard rock graphic tee and a pinstripe grey skirt, heeled loafers a la 90s, my vlajternativa tote bag, sojos sunnies and an array of jewelry.

wednesday work: a dior top and free people knit skirt, chrome slingback flats, metallic crossbody, and primarily gold jewelry
walk: fruit of the loom gym tee, grey biker shorts, sneakers, and jewelry - ha! effort.

thursday work: dkny top, high waisted jeans, patent leather horsebit loafers, red, bronze, and blue detailed ponytail bow, matching color jewelry, and backpack - biked to work.
walk: blue yoga top, biker shorts, and a white cotton shirt, we walked at osborne park next to the lake, and had ice cream beforehand, so we got a bit chilly.









friday was my cheat day so i didn't do much walking. for work i biked again so i wore grey trousers and a work tee, backpack, fisherman loafers, and some jewlery.
















saturday morning i wore a cotton blouse and sweatpant shorts for my many scheduled pampering sessions before the wedding. 
















sib styled me head-to-toe for the wedding. this asymmetrical dress was purchased by her a few weeks ago at the thrift, and the heels were chosen by her at designer fashion warehouse. she was pissed they weren't in her size, but she demanded i don't let them go. she helped me choose the bag (magazine clutch) and i did the jewelry, which were a bit too loud for someone who uses their hands when they talk as much as i do.



i demanded sib not to wake me up as i was in dire need to sleep in on sunday. when we both decided to come alive in the late afternoon, we took a walk, and i chose this sweatshirt (it's like fall is already here), and plaid shorts. we hung out with besties victoria and nicole, and debriefed the night before. 









what am i looking forward to next week?

i have a fun style challenge prepared for you! our pool closed this weekend for the season, so i am officially looking forward to fall season. let's hope my work week won't be as crazy demanding as this past one. toodles!
