For me, visiting college campuses is always a bittersweet experience.  And our little excursion to Harvard this past weekend was no exception. While it’s nice to be reminded of all the fun I used to have in college (tons of freedom with very little responsibility other than going to class), it’s also a wake up call that I’m no longer the fresh-eyed coed I used to be.  Oh well, I like to still think I could at least pass as a grad student!

{Spain Style} The Distinguished Gentleman

I typically don’t feature my husband on this blog, but I just had to give credit where credit is due…

Eric did a fantastic job packing for our recent trip to Spain.  Even though he only brought a handful of items, he managed to look fantastic and really well put together every day that we were on vacation.  I have to admit that I got a little jealous more than once as he effortlessly got ready while I struggled to figure out what to wear (especially towards the tail end of our journey).

I’m definitely taking a page out of his book for our next vacation by only packing a few key separates that I can mix and match in fun and interesting ways.

Today was my first day back at work, and I’m still completely jetlagged.  Thank goodness for caffeine, or I seriously would’ve fallen asleep during that conference call.

I’m off now to get some shut-eye, but I wanted to leave you all with some pics of what I wore for a romantic stroll through the botanical gardens in Madrid.  As cute as my glittery little flats were, my poor little tootsies were just about done by the end of the day.

Word to the wise: if your shoes lack arch support, slide in a pair of orthotic inserts.  I have several pairs that I switch in and out of various shoes, but I of course forgot to pack them for this trip.  DOH!

P.S.  If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a million times… don’t miss out on your chance to win a $25 gift certificate from my SkinCareRX giveaway!
