I can’t exactly say I’m a saint when it comes to dressing up, I like to show a little skin and a little curve. For the most part, though, I like being modest. I go the extra layer to cover up my butt with a sweater for work. I use leggings when it’s cold if I’m wearing a dress, and avoid dresses altogether if they’re above my knee for work. I feel odd at the club. One time I wore…
To be honest, I still have trouble putting together my work outfits. I try not to think about the outfits too long, but long enough to make sure I’m hitting a few key points. Is it cute but also professional? Am I going to be comfortable wearing this all day? Are the people at my job ready to see me in this outfit (this is not a joke and probably something people should ask themselves more often)! I keep these…
I’m not gonna lie. I would have not bought these pants a few years ago.. I don’t even think I had anything of this color in my closet. I was afraid of the mustard. I wasn’t taking risks and honestly I was unhappy with the way I was dressing. This was when I was in college, by the way, because in high school I won “best dressed” award! Haha! Back then, I wanted to pursue a career in fashion and wear all the…
If its not too obvious already, I am no makeup guru. But, like a lot of you girls out there, I love makeup and beauty products. It feels amazing to find the right combination of products that just work with you. It’s even more amazing when this combo of products gets you from looking dead in the morning to looking semi decent and ready for work! I’ve always had issues with acne and dark spots. Oh my gosh I look…
Deciding what to wear for work used to make me anxious. Okay, it still does, but I’ve learned a few tricks to help me get through that morning routine in a breeze. Most of you know that I’m a high school teacher, but few of you know that I started teaching at the age of 21. I’m 25 now but I feel like my face has not changed and I still get the daily “Omg I thought you were a…
Hello everyone! Two things you should know about this coat: it’s my moms, and it’s from her insanely large collection of coats. To say she is obsessed with coats would be an understatement. She collects them and I’m sure she can fill up a closet with them. Anyway, she let me borrow this gorgeous one the other day partly because I am the complete opposite and don’t collect coats. It’s not that I don’t like them, I just don’t bother buying them because there is hardly any cold…
Santa, baby give me some cold weather! We took these pictures the week before Thanksgiving and it was probably 85 degrees outside, but somehow it looked like Christmas in every corner of the street. I love how festive everyone around me has been, which makes me love the holiday even more. When I was growing up, we didn’t really have any set Christmas traditions. Sometimes we didn’t even have a tree up. Gasp, I know. It was mainly because my parents would take my brothers and I…
I love wearing comfortable clothes, but who doesn’t right? I also like to look sharp and not at all like a slob, which can be tough to figure out when choosing what to wear for work. I’m a high school teacher, so as you may imagine, I have to work extra hard to look my age and not like one of the students (sad face). I’m also on my feet all day and running around so staying comfy is a must for…
