February 21, 2012: Getting In The Mood

Long weekend are the best! Did I just have one? In this picture I did. This is sad face all over again but, for real! My floor's really not that awesome... It's always a bummer to head back into the office after you've had an extra day to spend at home for "free" AKA not taking a vacation day. I have generally been trying to consistently wear professional outfits at work. Dress for the job you want and all that jazz, plus it helps me refocus after the weekend. How do you get back into the groove on Mondays?

February 17, 2012: Just Another Friday

This is a Friday outfit, can you tell? Yeah, I know... It's hard to be motivated to wear more than some skinny pants with a comfy top when your only hours away from the weekend especially after the kind of days I have been having; The weekend is my respite and Friday is the gateway. How about you, does Friday (or whatever day your Friday might be) influence the way you dress?

• Top: navy boatneck sweater, LOFT
• Bottom: black really skinny pants, GAP/gift from BF
• Shoes & Accessories: silver hardware embellished flats, Preview via Nordstrom Rack; silver/rhinestone lariat, Christmas gift from a friend; silver bead earrings, Tiffany & Co.; Neverfull GM, Louis Vuitton/gift from BF

Purchases & Acquisitions: February 2012

I might still be posting outfit from February but, it has come to a close... It is time to review purchases and other additions my wardrobe. I am happy to say that this is yet another month where I didn't buy anything!

But wait, what about that Navy Poplin Dress Jason Wu for Target?

Right, I didn't forget about it. I just didn't spend any money on it. For my birthday last August my parents very generously gifted me with a hefty Target gift card which I have been using to pick up odds and ends... Best. Gift. Ever.
