It’s been a bit of a slow week in GML world, and that’s very much on purpose.
Well…let me rephrase that. My social life has been slow, but work has been b-a-n-a-n-a-s (in a good way!).
Most weeks I’m out just about every night, but this week the opposite has been true. It’s been a nice change to fully plan on staying in and just relaxing. The fact that we’ve been in a polar vortex for what seems like this entire month doesn’t make that decision difficult, to say the least.
Anyway, here are some snapshots via Instagram + more of the story behind them.
1) Monday was a great day. I very rarely take full advantage of 3-day weekends, but this time I treated Monday like the holiday it was. Rachel and I went to spin early in the morning, then I caught up on some work before shutting my laptop and enjoying the rest of the day. I had brunch with Rachel and Martina at Egg Shop, which I’d been wanting to visit for a while. It was SO good. I got an egg & cheese sandwich (gruyere, caramelized onion aoli) on a gluten free English muffin, and we went splitsies on bacon. Because bacon. Definitely recommended if you’re in NYC.
2) Every time I kinda sorta miss having a “real” job, I remember how much I hated wearing dress pants and pencil skirts. Thanks social media, for keeping me forever dressing like a teenager.
3) Sneak peek from a recent shoot with Samy. I always have so much fun at our photo shoots. I’ll be honest, though - playing model always feels a little strange. It makes me feel so silly! I definitely think there’s value in having more professional photos, but sometimes I miss the good old days when blogging was more…au naturale.
4) Another shot because these are my favorite boots in all the land. They’re from Boohoo.com.
5) Sooo am I annoying anyone with my repetitive SoulCycle posts? Oh well. Get used to ‘em 
6) NUGGET THOUGH. In case you were wondering, she is in fact the cutest pup in the entire world. And believe it or not, in real life she’s even smaller than she looks.
7) Oh ya know, just your perfectly curated flat lay of my breakfast before I smashed it in my face. Also, can I be Margot Robbie?

What’s been a highlight of your week so far? Has it been a busy one or on the slow side?
I just want to kiss your pup! So precious!
hehe she is! she’s actually my best friend jessi’s pup
I too, wish I was Margot Robbie!
Love that messy bun style!
I’ve had such a crazy busy workweek but took the day off today! Too bad it’s crazy cold day because I don’t think I could survive strolling around outside or longer than 30 mins. Happy Friday
Good for you for giving yourself a day off!
Wow all those spelling errors…yikes I promise I went to school! That’s what I get for using my phone to comment
Life has felt crazy! I came home from vacation Monday and was back in the office by Tuesday (and wishing I had a job where wunder unders and hoodies were my required attire!). Nights were busy with errands, so by Friday…I was done. I need this weekend to regroup! Highlight of my week was coming home to my love and my kitty!
