Movin' On Up

Blazer:  Nordstrom, Top:  J.Crew (old, this year's version here), Jeans:  Zara (LOVE this similar option), Shoes:  Aldo (very old, great alternative here), Bag:  Forever 21 (similar), Sunnies:  Forever 21 (sold out, similar here)

This holiday weekend couldn't come soon enough. I'm sure you're thinking, 'Wait, wasn't she just on vacation?!?' Well yes, this is true. But this month has been super busy and stressful at times.

...And I'm so happy to announce that the hard work has paid off. 

I recently applied for a new position within my company and I GOT THE JOB!!! 

I start next week. My new position is Sales and Customer Care Trainer ~ pretty much my dream job. I finally have the opportunity to combine my love for teaching with my passion for fashion. 

So again, I apologize for the super sporadic posting, but I owed it to myself to give the interview process my undivided attention.

I hope everyone has a wonderfully relaxing Memorial Day weekend!

Look Familiar?

Blazer:  Zara (old, similar here), Top:  Zara (recent, loving this one), Skort:  Zara (old, identical here), Shoes:  Steve Madden (obsessed with these), Bag:  Sophie Hulme, Sunnies:  Ray-Ban

I'd venture to guess that some variation of this skort has been featured on about 90% of fashion blogs  over the past year. Yes, there are certain pieces every season that quickly become cult classics among the blogging community {i.e. Rockstud pumps, these sandals, this clutch, this oversized scarf, etc.}. 

While many of us are on a quest for originality, sometimes repetition is unavoidable. Especially with a piece this versatile and comfy.

Does this over exposure deter me from wearing one of my summer favorites? Not really, instead I seek to be unique in the way I style it. Today I decided to make it office appropriate paired with my favorite pink blazer and striped lace shell.

Happy Monday everyone!
