Belated yet Bright

This is what I wore to work last Thursday, which now seems like it was ages ago.  Hopefully things will slow down again soon and my posts will stope being so sporadic.  I found this vibrantly colored dress at Maribel right after I got back from Israel.  I like that it can be dressed up or down depending on the situation.  Last Thursday I tried to play down its vibrance with dark tights, flats, and my trusty oatmeal colored cardigan.  I think it was probably still a little bright for the office, but I am not one to shy away from color so I went for it!

Cloudy Thursday Day Off

I took the day off to tie up some old tasks that needed to be completed and to relax. Sadly my wallet was stolen yesterday so as I tried to relax I could feel the waves of feeling thieved and grief stricken come over me.

At least I can wear a nice outfit to cheer me up!

Today I wanted something I can do chores in and look nice while perusing the Jewish Museum!

Have a great Thursday and tomorrow is FRIDAY!!!!

Prepared

 I am finally back to my normal schedule (having been out of the office for a project for the last three days), but now I have to contend with a massive rain storm.  I went for comfort today with my J. Crew cashmere sweatshirt paired with a basic black pencil skirt and black tights.  Since the sweatshirt is pretty boxy, I tried to keep the bottoms pretty tight to balance me out and not make me look boxy as well.  The footwear is where it got complicated.  I wore my green floral wellies to brave the elements outside, but I brought with me my three tone Boden t-straps to wear in the protected office environment.  Both my boots and my heels got complimented today - Hooray!

Bright Colors for a Sunny Day!

It's March and its in the 70s....Despite my urge to go all Global Warming on this I decided instead to hold in my need to scream sustainability, put on a dress and a smile!

Today I am wearing one of my best finds, a Marriemeko for Target dress. To put some edge and sophistication to this I put on a blazer and some closed toe suede wedges.

Have a great day!

YAY for legs!
