Coffey Break Chat: Keeping Up With The Joneses

Hey you guys,

So, I’ve sat down twice now to start recording a Coffey Break Chat about this topic, and after two failed attempts, I came to the realization that there’s a pattern when it comes to the content I write about and the content I vlog about. For whatever reason, when it comes to a topic that I’m still mulling over, I sort through the thick of it by spilling it all out in written form, which turned into a very long reflection. So, I just went ahead and recorded the video. The original title for this post was: Benchmarking, Social Media & Self-Doubt, only to realize that what’s really going is Keeping Up With The Joneses at its best. To say the least, it took me stepping completely out of my comfort zone to record this video, but the first step is aknowledging that you have a problem haha And hopefully this will be a source of encouragement and clarity to anyone who can relate 🙂

Here goes…

Enjoy!

11.12.13

At the first sign of the temperature dropping I stock up on all my winter faves:

1. Sweatpants (Easy to dress up or down, great for night to day transitions)

2. Sweatshirts(Makes life on the go crazy efficient, I can barely make moves when I’m cold)

3. Scarves (I layer like crazy in an effort to stay warm, so scarves are a great substitute for necklaces)

This is one of the coolest gifts I’ve received to date. So much love to my good friend Andrea for thinking of me. The pendant on the necklace is the back space button from a typewriter. The creativity of jewelry designers always inspires me to think of new ways to rework the random pieces I’ve collected over the years.

Okay, okay, so it’s official. I’m ready to acknowledge that I have become a sneaker wedge junkie. I just can’t get enough of these bad boys.

Tonight is the second installment of The Flat pop up dinner series. I can’t really think of a better combination than my favorite place to go out annnd a bi monthly dinner series built around it. Good times ahead. Have a great day everyone!

Torn

Sweet sweet summertime. September is my favorite month for a number of reasons, but the thing I love most about this month is the crossover between summer and fall. I’ll be sad to see summer go, but I’m really looking forward to having fun with all the layered looks fall has to offer.

This is going to be a busy weekend for us. We will be hosting our very first Sunday Dinner for TheCoffeyBreak.com benefitting Mia’s Closet. Be sure to check back next week for highlights from the evening!

Have a great weekend!
