Since I did not go to homecoming at what I’m sure was the best homecoming ever (big tears), I started some handwarmers. It was pretty awesome.

casual friday, and new outfit no. 3
My office doesn’t really do casual Fridays, but if we did, and if my place of work was down with silly sweaters, this is what I would wear: Betcha thought that dinosaur sweatshirt would never see the light of day, huh? For night…I would not change a thing. Or, you know, put on some sweatpantsContinue reading “casual friday, and new outfit no. 3”
warm up
The weather has gotten a little cooler, and I can’t take my eyes off The Purl Bee. The result is a deep desire for all things knitted—there are so many projects I want to try! I’ve been talking about handwarmers forever, and still haven’t made myself a pair. But this inspiration for some killer gloves…Continue reading “warm up”
new outfit dos
I don’t know if you know how much I love color blocking, but I love it. I’ll demonstrate. For day, I paired my blouse with a pencil skirt, and added some more color with my necklace and shoes. Office ready? I think so. For night, I clashed in a great way. Again, don’t listen toContinue reading “new outfit dos”
A word on Miu Miu
This picture from The Cut blog perfectly demonstrates my like/dislike for the Miu Miu booties. The shape is gorgeous, the design…well, not my fave. And when done wrong, it’s so wrong.
new outfit uno
Real life day and night, birthday dinner style: This is what I really wore to work. And this is what I really wore to a friend’s birthday dinner: Pretty similar, just switched work pants for jeans and lost the blazer—it was warm outside! Am I the only one who wears dresses as shirts sometimes? Today,Continue reading “new outfit uno”
happy columbus day
I don’t have work off today, but I hope you do. I also hope you can take advantage of the crazy Columbus day sales. These are some things I bought this weekend! I’m pretty excited, and think that all of these pieces (ok, not the dinosaur sweatshirt) could be great for work and for fun.Continue reading “happy columbus day”
pattern fun
Happy Friday, everyone! Today, I am having fun with patterns. For work, I keep the pattern to my shoes: and for play, I pile on the patterns everywhere: It’s Friday, go crazy! Hope everyone has a good weekend, with many versatile outfits. If you need me, you know where to reach me! (On Twitter, duh)
nail polish
To me, nothing says “I have my life together” like having perfectly manicured nails. I have perfectly manicured nails about 5% of the time. But, I think that pretty, put-together detail can be really nice, and really professional. For the office, I’d stay away from sparkles and anything too bright. These are vacation nails, theyContinue reading “nail polish”
red
I have a thing for colored pants. I want a pair. Just about any color will do, but I’ve been infatuated with red pants as of late. So I took this pair, dove into my fantasy closet, and chose about a thousand tops you could wear with them. Each top provides a different look andContinue reading “red”
