Today's Look: Tuesday, 5/29/12

It's back to work today.  We had a great weekend and ended up having a lot of fun with family & friends.  Great food, laughs and relaxing moments = the perfect weekend!

 outfit details:

shirt & shoes, old navy / khaki skirt, thrifted

So I went to Old Navy last week to make a few returns and was blown away at some of the clearance prices I found.  Old Navy is hit-n-miss for me and I found some cute pieces this last week that were definitely a hit in my book!

Seminar Recap & Today's Look

outfit details:

maxi skirt, target / jacket, f21 / tee, h&m

 Our last evening in Chicago we were able to go to dinner and relax a little.  I have the best co-workers! 

 Gotta say, it wasn't so bad getting this nice room and king size bed all to myself for a couple of nights.  However, it was sure nice to get back home to Nathan!  Maybe next time he can just go with me!!

 This specific seminar only allowed for a table-top display.  We had a lot of traffic and made some great contacts!  I'm excited for the next one.

 I branch out a little more each year with this job.  Talking to people I don't know has never been my strong suit, but ya know, I came right out of my comfort zone here and even felt comfortable while doing it!  Mom, your prayers helped! :)

Today's Look: Thursday, 5/24/12

I can sure tell I haven't been wearing heels as much lately.  Two days on my feet all day and I was nearly in pain!   

outfit details:

top, f21 / black skirt, old navy via Gap Clearance Store

Nude Wedges, Payless 

Today's Look: Wednesday, 5/23/12

I spent the beginning of this week at a client seminar in Chicago.  This was my first one to attend and I had a great time and was able to meet a lot of my clients!

outfit details:

skirt, j.crew via thrift / top, f21

black wedges, nine west via zappos / handbag, alloy 

I did a little construction on this blouse to make it more appropriate for the office environment.  The top was sheer but since I had another blouse in the same color (why again did I buy similar pieces??) I simply lined the "strap" area with the extra fabric.  I love the color and best of all - the zipper in the back!

Today's Look: Friday, 5/18/12

It's Friday!  It's Friday!  :)

This week has felt like it was 14 days long so I'm so happy to be to the weekend!  Whew!  I finally got some energy last evening and even got a few things accomplished @ home.  Sweet relief...I was beginning to think my laundry would NEVER get done.  

We are having some friends over this evening for a little cookout.  I'm pumped about this.  I do enjoy having people over...and especially on Friday evening.  Did I mention we are to the weekend???  Oh yeah, we already covered that!  Hope you all have a terrific one.  We'll talk more later :)

Have you noticed my theme lately??  It's all about comfort!  My Payless sandals and maxi skirts have been top picks when I rummage through my closet each morning.  Today was no different, but at least today I did take time to flat iron my hair :)  Had to put some effort in my look somewhere!

My eyes will hardly stay open this afternoon.  Besides the sunshine blinding me (can't exactly complain about sunshine now can we?!) and feeling like I didn't get enough sleep (let's face it, I never do!)...I'm having a great day so far.  I have lots to get done so today's thoughts are short and sweet!  Happy Wednesday!
