sunday night bocce league

we're 0 for 4

please coach us

headed to canada for work

this is in an airport bathroom

just took jeans for the week since the meetings were pretty casual

wore this to a tradeshow

felt TALL and confident

:)

loving that wool blazer but it's warm enough in ATL now that it's probably retired for the season

wore this to a customer meeting

have worn this outfit SO MUCH in the past two months

this is called, get creative with what's in your suitcase

Japan inspired me to do more layering and I like this try

day of sightseeing

you know how much I have sneakers + jeans

but I tried to tuck my jeans in so it looked like I was wearing the sneakers on purpose

HA

really liked this

more creative layering

REpeat

carry on suitcase, what of it

now in FL for another work trip

anthropologie top that I have loved a lot

wedges from NY&Co that you can't quite see

OLD favorite tank top from canadian shop RW&CO or something like that

lands end skinnies, target flats

company button down REPRESENT

it's getting about time to start shopping for a new pair of standby flats

JUST in case

oh and I kind of abandoned my curly girl hair methods

needed to look a bit more together for the work trips

oopsies

afternoon of shopping

loving this dress from banana republic outlet in blowing rock

same as the pink one I wore to L+M's wedding

bought the pants and top

hoping the pants will be a good office staple this summer

such a weird looking top on the rack but I. love. it. on

didn't get this top, it wasn't quite LOVE

did get the trouser jeans for the office

got this dress

saleslady accidentally put an identical one in the size down in my bag

so if anyone needs this dress in a medium...?

loved this dress but it was $30+ and made too cheaply to be worth that for me

dinner with customers in NEW CLOTHES

loving the purp

headed to the airport

back in ATL, shopping with my mama

new top + lands end skinnies CUFFED

casual day at work

old gap outlet tee from years ago

how it survived the goodwill cuts I'll never know but I love it now

friday morning curly amazingness

okay so I only semi abandoned the curly girl methods

ABC brewery tour with friends

canada black tank, ny&co skinnies, roommate's beautiful silver leaf necklace

ridiculous expression, all my own

<3

one month later.... through march 17 :)

lots of photos and a new setup.

get PUMPED.

dress monday

that awkward moment when you realize your trench coat is longer than your dress

#oopsies

loving the wool blazer for real

this looks like it might be with dark jeans and boots

japan sweater + jeans and boots

and some srrsly curly hair

japan dress tunic, belted with skinny black pants

probably another work outfit with the wool blazer and jeans

looks like the weekend?

love this... I think this was for a wedding shower I went to

new setup

just LOOK at this quality face that I make in every. single. picture.

next week I'll smile, promise

old navy shirtdress, belted plus tights and boots

trying to spice up some boring brown pants with an orange top and sweater + scarf

paris top with gray trouser pants 

usually wear this top with skinnies so this is a bit different... liked it alright but it looked a little boring

saw the photo then added a belt and bright cardigan

love

and look at that crazy curly hair

my hair looks so gross, haha

chicos dress, belted with tights + boots

tried this on, looked at the photo, disliked

same gray trouser pants as above

I think this top may go into the Goodwill pile...

liked this better

spring weather = spring clothing with fun COLOR

liked this combination and will try it with other tops + cardigans and shoes

big. curly. hair.

still love the wool blazer and skinnies

<3

BOCCE tee shirt

have been living in this for the past week

plus super dark lands end skinny jeans

casual friday

company button down + dark skinnies

I really like this combination as a casual work look

bocce shirt take two

wedding pregame with the BRIDE :)

wedding GO with lovely Sara

such a fun wedding to get dressed up for :)

half of january and half of february

these posts just keep getting longer because I'm getting lazier and lazier about posting

but I'm NOT getting lazier about actually taking photos

as you're about to see

office

loving my gray wool blazer so much.  and the land's end skinny black pants.

looks like I'm wearing them here with flats?

this is the most pre-Japan-like outfit that I've worn to work so far.

regular trousers, sweater.

trying to stop ignoring the majority of my closet that was not with me in Japan

same, minus necklace and plus scarf

office

I used to wear cardigans EVERYDAY

what happened

HRJ this is your hand-me-down shirt

(today I consigned it but it did get one good wear)

LOVING my green jacket lately

new dress from ann taylor loft

worn to the office for a sales meeting with black boots

love

another new item

finally spent that anthropologie giftcard from LAST YEAR

finally tried on a top at anthro that didn't make me cringe

:) 

office?

loving my blazer, obvs

Japan sweater dress, black skinnies, boots

another boring office outfit, trying to work regular pants back into the rotation

unfortunately I can't wear dresses or the black skinnies everyday.  sigh.

also trying to use more of my shoes.

wear it or give it away.  so I'm giving things a last chance before I start chunking :)

same plus blazer

HRJ hand-me-down velvet black blazer plus black tank, necklace, dark skinny jeans and boots

dinner out with coworkers

loved this

velvet blazer is definitely a more nighttime look

what is up with that face??!

lazy work outfit

messy bun = my bff

oh this was a series of dress try-ons for new orleans wedding

still love this dress.  still a bit too tight for my tastes :)

this was my top but I ended up going with chi-town dress with tights + boots (as shown later on)

but I'm always surprised by how much I like this impulse buy Target dress

have only worn it a few times but I really like it

roadtrip to new orleans

still my favorite outfit- target tee plus skinnies and boots.  L.O.V.E.

paparazzi shot.  loved my jacket this weekend.  and my Japan bag.  I'll be sad when it dies.

wedding wear

loved the dress with navy tights + boots.  or maybe I did black and black?  can't remember.
