another job interview look.

Image
This dress is actually from my Poshmark closet but I LOVE THE SHEER DETAILS, especially in the back (above) and velvet florals. I'm really tempted to keep it and it seemed like the perfect thing to put on for another job interview that I had today!   I'm wearing: cup-Kate Spade (marshall's) headband-old dress-bcbg max azria (thrifted, FOR SALE, maybe?!) Should I keep it?!?! holographic clogs-Sven Clogs, last worn HERE

Do you have a go-to dress that you always wear to job interviews? I also wear it to staff picture days! This is it! I'm currently in the process of exploring the much-changed job field in the time of a pandemic. I see myself in some sort of academia, a school, a college, possibly tutoring as I see safe. I'm not sure yet where my cap will get thrown but it's an exciting journey! I'm wearing: dress-talbots (marshall's), last worn HERE bunny purse-kate spade (mercari), last worn HERE cactus mug-gift from my bff headband-super old! h&m maybe? turquoise clogs-c/o Sven Clogs, last worn HERE Have a WONDERFUL weekend! xx

How is your week going? This dress is my first ever Depop purchase. I got it secondhand and I just had to shorten the straps since it was two sizes bigger than I would normally wear, I read the measurements carefully to be sure. The price was great too, this dress is typically over $70! It would be perfect for work too! It's very modest and comfortable. I knew I HAD TO have it when I realized it had an adorable bow detail in the back that I couldn't resist. I'm wearing: fox backpack-leafling bags, last worn HERE tan beret-eBay sunglasses-oui fresh English Pinafore dress-Miss Patina (depop) NEW debut orange tee-marshall's, last worn HERE white clogs-Sven Clogs, last worn HERE Happy almost-Friday! xx

We are midway through another week of more questions than answers... I have another set of labwork for my Crohn's coming up, I'm REALLY hoping that the inflammation is going down and that my low fodmap diet is working from the inside out! This skirt was one of my newest thrifts! I fell in love with it right away, not only is it TULLE but it has red velvet polka dots! Does it get much better? Probably not, in my opinion. The band also matched Kirby perfectly so it seemed like a great way to debut it!  I'm wearing: kirby tee-xmas gift, last worn HERE pink tulle skirt-thrifted NEW to me cactus bag-Betsey Johnson (poshmark) last worn HERE gold clogs-c/o Sven Clogs, last worn HERE round sunglasses-pac sun (old) I hope you're having a nice week! I'm definitely grateful to have some extra family time with my brother in town from NYC! xx

It's another long and questionable week in the pandemic times. For the first time, I'm wondering if I should just start teaching again since I would be remote teaching and that would be a lot different and challenging in new ways...it's a tough decision. My husband and I went to Saver's last night and it was SO CRAZY EXPENSIVE. They raised the prices on literally everything to the point where it just felt a bit like shopping at target for clothing, full price even though everything at Savers is secondhand! I ended up buying about 15 Summer items from good brands that were marked lower since the seasons are changing, for resale. There's still a good month or two, especially in the West Coast where you can get away with shorts and definitely tank tops can be layered all year round. I got this Sundance brand white eyelet tank top at Turnstyle last week and I really love it. It's solid/detailed enough to work by itself without feeling super flimsy or like undercloth

Happy Sunday! We did a real Sunday Funday with my family and had our first ever hotdogs at home night! My husband and brother grilled, I made fries in the air fryer and onion rings in the oven & chili & beans on the stove top and we had quite a feast! My dad, brother, and husband all did chili cheese dogs and I had a basic style one with my mom! It was a little junky but super fun and I would definitely recommend doing this with your family once in a while! I'm wearing lots of Miss Patina today! My shirt, belt, and skirt! It's definitely one of my top favorite brands ever and I'm just crazy about the style, quality and fit! I'm wearing: sunglasses-pac sun (old) peach kitty tee-Miss Patina, last worn HERE Miss Patina striped skirt-NEW from Poshmark (secondhand) cat belt-Miss Patina necklace-thrifted flat clog sandals-c/o Sven Clogs, last worn HERE  Since I found this awesome Miss Patina striped skirt on Poshmark, I posted a few of my skirts for sale, including a
