It’s always great to treat yourself, and I’ve opted to do it with fitness apparel and clothes via Fabletics and Le Tote. Surprising right?! Anyways, I’ve gotten a few goodies in the mail lately that I thought I’d share with you…first up is my latest outfit this month from Fabletics! I got my first outfit for $24.95 (you can too!) and blogged about my experience here. Then I got my second outfit. This month, I opted for this super comfortable ensemble: This was the Keystone outfit, Read More
What I Wore to Work: Belts, Baubles & Boots
It’s in the air…can you feel it?! Christmas is coming!! AND our year-end holiday shutdown at work! That’s right…our office is closed from Monday the 23rd through January 1st- it’s like I’m in college again with a “winter break!” In addition to celebrating Christmas, I’m SO looking forward to some much needed relaxation and “me” time! I’ve got tons of stuff to keep me busy: workouts, baking, catching up on TV shows, blogging, cleaning and spending time with family and friends! Here is Read More
What I Wore to Work #10: Bold Colors
TGIW! Today is like Friday because of the Thanksgiving Holiday- woo hoo! I will be spending time with family (including celebrating my Dad’s birthday), doing some Black Friday shopping, running/hiking and getting some projects done around the house! It will definitely be a fun-filled few days- let’s just hope the weather cooperates! PS- Check out my fancy new social media buttons on the right sidebar and follow me! (And thanks to the hubs for helping me out with Read More
What I Wore to Work: Sweater Season & Tunic Time
Brrr it’s cold outside! Our first snowfall was on Monday and the temperature is dropping FAST. Such a difference from the lovely weather on Saturday during our Champagne & Chocolate Crawl (which was heaven, by the way. Check out Instagram for a few photos of the shenanigans as well as the gorgeous Loft cargo jacket I got at consignment store, which was one of the stops that day). In any case, let’s get back to business and recap another week of office Read More
Headed to the Emerald City…with a dose of violet.
I have no clue where Monday went. Literally ran out of hours in the day between work and finishing up more painting from over the weekend. That said, today you get TWO outfits! Shoes: Target (clearance buy!) Pants: NY&Co Tank: Gap Outlet Blazer: Kohl's (on super clearance) Ok, so I know that emerald is the Pantone color of the year or whatever, but I don't have anything emerald, so this was the closest I could come to it. (And bonus! I did a little bit of pattern mixing with the shoes Read More
Winterize It!
Bri over at Work Clothes, I Suppose came up with a great Third Thursday Threads Challenge: Winterizing a Summer Item. This theme is particularly fitting because it's FREEZING outside and I'm desperate to start wearing my spring/summer clothes! Case in point: yesterday's post. So what did I decide to winterize? Well, I LOVE to wear skirts and dresses so I immediately went for my Old Navy sleeveless dress! (Please ignore my ghost white skin. I hope to change that stat.) Anyways, I love this Read More
Work that Blazer!
I don't know where the inspiration for this outfit came from (probably a mix of Pinterest and the super stylish bloggers I follow), but I LOVE this look! I think a large part of why I love it is because the skirt is one I would have only considered wearing in the summer, but with some layering/different accessories, it transitions into another season seamlessly! (I found that to be true of a tank top I recently wore as well!) Sarah of Simply Sarah touches upon this too, she just started a Read More
Cozy Cocoon Sweaters
There's something about a cocoon sweater that is so...well, cozy! It is the perfect addition to an outfit when it's cold outside (especially when it's down to the single digits in Chicagoland this week!) I recently pinned this look on my Pinterest Style Board and tried to re-create it with items I had in my closet. I didn't realize how much I loved cocoon sweaters until I looked in my closet and discovered three (pink, maroon and burnt orange), all of which are from Target. (I just can't Read More
