It has been a very busy last few days and I feel like my mind has been going in a million different directions so I apologize for the lack of posts this week! You know when you have so much on your plate and you don’t know where to start so you end up not getting much done because you switch from task to task without completing anything? No? Just me? I’m sure you are much more organized than I am but this is something I am definitely trying to improve on this year.
As you probably know, I have a full-time day job as a Sales Executive and work on this blog at night and on the weekends. I found out some pretty exciting news this week that I made the President’s Club list (basically the top 10% of the company worldwide) and will be heading to Mexico with my husband for a week in May! Yay! This is my third year making PC so it is a very special accomplishment for me in my career. I obviously want to share this with you not to brag, but because I genuinely feel like this blog has become a place where I can open up a little more about my life and not just strictly share about my fashion and happy hour finds.
I also wanted to share this with you in case you might be contemplating starting a blog, a side business, or just a new hobby, to show that you can do both and be successful at it. There are about a hundred and one things I would love to do to improve this blog (and will hopefully be implementing at least a few of those soon), but at the end of the day, if you’re dedicating your time to something you’re passionate about, I believe that is a success in itself.
With all of this talk about work I figured I would share an office appropriate outfit featuring this black sleeveless trench that can take you from your desk to dinner. I am riding the culottes train with no signs of jumping off anytime soon. I’ve told you this before, but they are a surprisingly flattering fit (get a high-waisted pair like these) and you can pair them with everything from a chunky knit, a silk blouse, or even a fun crop top once it warms up! I’ve definitely got my eye on several pieces from THIS SALE going on!
The real statement-maker of this outfit is this black sleeveless trench and skinny silk scarf. The trench is currently under $25 and the neck tie scarf is under $8! Both of these pieces are extremely versatile and at their low price, there’s no reason not to add them to your closet!
Make sure to come back tomorrow for a new post AND GIVEAWAY!! Thank you for reading!
