Finally! I can talk about my news!!

I recently accepted a new Event Planning position outside of Kroger.  This is such a big step for me and my career.  The company provides industry trade publications such as books, magazines, and websites.  They host a big event for each trade magazine that I will be responsible for. The magazines focus on retail design, graphic design, and boutique hotel design. Right up my alley!  I get to work closely with the publishers and the marketing department to develop these events from scratch.  I start January 9th.   I feel like the position was tailored just for me!  I can't say just yet, but I'm thinking this could be my dream job :)

Crazy Crazy

Dress: Modcloth

Tights: Kohl's 

Shoes: Jessica Simpson - DSW

Jacket: NY & Co.

Earrings: Charming Charlie

These pictures were taken before the craziness!  I figured since I've been slacking on outfit posts this week, I'd go ahead and post these anyway.   I promise once all this sets in I'll go back to having regular posts.  

This is the dress I wore for my birthday in July.  I think pairing it with black really makes it stand out.  Another example of turning a summer dress into a fall outfit!

Cropped Pants

Cropped Pants: Target

Silk Shirt: Banana Republic

Pink Blazer: Kohl's

Shoes: Payless

Bag: Thirfted

Bracelet: Kohl's

I think this is officially one of my favorite work outfits. I haven't worn these pants in so long. You saw them one other time HERE.  Just another great find in my closet.  I got this shirt at Banana Republic for $20, originally $80!  I was so proud.  100% silk and oh so comfy.

This weekend is Drew's birthday extravaganza! We're starting it tonight with a rock show!  We're going to see one of my favorite bands, Colour Revolt.  I posted one of their songs on one of my old Music Monday posts.  If you get a chance, check out their music. AH-Mazing.  Saturday is Drew's actual birthday. The big two-seven.  He likes to call me his cougar...not funny.  I'm only 16 months older. 

Spring to Fall

Dress: Thrifted

Shoes: Chinese Laundry

Blazer & Scarf: Target

You've seen this outfit HERE from this past spring.  This is a perfect example of how to flip a spring/summer outfit into fall. Simple and effortless!

I am so excited about Halloween this weekend!  We are going to a friend's house for a party tomorrow night.  I don't to spoil it and tell you about our costumes until I have pictures to post.  I made our costumes so I'm super proud of them.  I can't wait to show them off.

Dressing up for Halloween???

Hi pretties! Hope everyone is having a great week so far!  I just got back from my study date and I'm all snugged up warm on the couch.  It's cold and rainy out...ew.

Since my October shopping ban, I've been slacking on my outfit creativity, as you can probably tell by the lack of posts.  Over the past couple of months I think most of my outfit inspiration was coming from the new clothes I was buying.  I decided it was time to take advantage of this shopping ban and my closet!  I need to start remixing pieces I haven't worn in awhile. So, here goes nothing!

Can't think of a title...

While I don't have too many pink things in my closet, I'll be doing my best to try to add some splashes of pink this month.  As you know, this month is Breast Cancer Awareness month.  Kroger is a big sponsor and really does a lot to get involved with the cause.  In fact, our building will be lit up with pink lights all month long. It's great.

I'm happy to say I haven't been forced into tights this fall just yet. We've had perfect weather all week! I'm trying to keep the bare legs as long as I can!
