Can I be quite honest here? I’ve been kind of down these last few days.
I’m ridiculously nervous for my upcoming cubital/carpal tunnel surgery. As much as I joke about how I’m going to take Tinder profile pics in my sweet bandage/splint after my surgery (don’t worry, I’ll still do that), going under the knife is pretty scary. I’m also just straight up frustrated that my condition has deteriorated pretty badly in the last week. I can’t grip a steering wheel long enough to drive myself to work. I can’t hold on to a fork while eating dinner. Actually, the fact that I can’t do these things is lowkey funny, but I’m just really uncomfortable at this point and it’s making me less motivated to do anything/everything.
Anyway, I’m just in a weird funk right now. To put things in perspective though, I’m incredibly thankful for my family and friends who are looking out for me though all of this mess. As much as I want to be a strong independent woman (lol), it’s kind of hard to do that when one of your arms will be out of comission.
So, about the fashion: I’m also kind of tired of the holiday stuff right now and I’m sure you all are too, so here’s an easy, casual weekend look that I’ve been rocking on repeat lately. These destroyed jeans are even approved by my mother, which is a really big deal guys.
Good luck with your surgery and here’s hoping for a speedy recovery! And, oh yes, love that bag and those jeans!
Thinking of you and your upcoming surgery! Sometime a girl just needs her squad to get her through the tough times. XO
Love the look, hoping all goes well with your surgery and you bounce back quickly!
That does sound super frustrating 🙁 I’m sure you will feel so much better after your procedure, sending you well wishes and good vibes!

Wishing you a speedy recovery!

I wish you the best for your surgery, and may you have a speedy recovery.
Best Wishes!!!!. I had CT surgery last year on my right wrist. Wasn’t bad at all. Highlight was I finally finished watching the final episodes of Gossip Girl 😉
