Summer: 9 to 5 Style

Jump to Comments

As our running partner (and teacher friend) parted ways with us this morning, and as we watched her run of into the wild blue yonder that is her summer vacation, it was difficult to not feel a pang of jealousy.  However, envy does no one any good.  Plus, it ages you.  So we’ve decided to come up with a list of ways to do summer: 9 to 5 style.

1.  Wear opened, toed, highly inappropriate sandals to work.  Es fiiine.
2.  Go blonde.
3.  Enjoy a little sunset happy hour with friends and coworkers.  Margaritas on the deck!  (easy recipe here).
4.  Eat your lunch outside – you aren’t that busy!
5.  Wear bright colors and lots of dresses.
6.  Take a vaca – even if you are super busy – summer just isn’t summer without sinking your toes into the sand.

  • 7. iced lattes for breakfast

  • 8. Sunday night cook outs

  • Good thing about blonding your hair because yesterday my hair guy thought I said I wanted to look like Christina Aguilera in her Genie in a Bottle days, rather than a more summery version of myself. Glad to have e-laneys approval.

  • while it isn’t really true that you can never be too rich, too thin, or too blonde – it is a little bit true

  • let’s have one soon please.
    we have big green eggs at our house.
    two, to be precise.
    Anyone up for celebrating the summer solstice next sunday watching the sun set on the longest day of the year on the porch of Korea???
