Hi everyone! I hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!!
I am really exhausted but feel like I should update everyone. So here is a list of things going on in my life:
1) I’ve had a couple job interviews but haven’t heard anything yet.
2) Today is my friend H’s 21st birthday so yay to her!
3) My best friend Squeaks is home now from her summer job!!! Yay!!
4) I have worn a couple decent outfits I wanted to share with you!
I went on a job interview last week and this is the outfit I wore. A yellow turtleneck tee from Express, a gray tweed skirt from Forever 21 and my gray Rocketdog flats. I even put on a little makeup. I added my black pearl necklace and bracelet. The outfit was professional and the yellow kept it fun. I really liked it and got a compliment on my necklace. I know they tell you its better to overdress for an interview instead of underdress but I disagree. I think overdressing makes you seem a little desperate and overly willing to please, especially if you haven’t had a job in a few weeks or months. I like to dress the way I would dress everyday if I got the job. I think this outfit exemplifies my professional style. What have you guys been told? Which do you think is better for a job interview, dress as you would on a normal day of work or overdress?
I had to run errands all day Wednesday but I didn’t want to just throw on a shirt and jeans, so I decided to spice it up a bit. I decided to wear a pink shirt from Express with my gray and pink fleur de lis vest (also from Express). I decided it was to hot for pants so I threw on some capris from Forever 21 and my Sam Edelman shoes from Akira Chicago.
My friend ASK was in town on Thursday so grabbed dinner together at Houlihan’s. As always, the company was great and the food was delicious. I knew how cold it gets in a restaurant so I wore a cardigan from Delia’s over my Mickey Mouse shirt from Disney World. I also wore my new pair of Old Navy jeans and my Sam Edelman shoes!
You can see my outfit from yesterday in my previous post. It is a top from Arden B I got as a birthday gift and jeans from Express. Of course I wore them with my Sam Edelman shoes. I know I know… Jeez Niv.. stop wearing those shoes.. but I CAN’T. They are too cute!!
Today we went to TGIFriday’s to celebrate my friend H’s birthday. It was a ton of fun! I decided to try out my new Akira Chicago top and belt and they got a ton of compliments. I decided to wear tan leggings underneath to bring out the tan in the top more. I added a silver bracelet from New York and Company, my nickname necklace from Disney World and fleur de lis earrings I got as a gift from friends for my birthday last year. Of course, I also wore my Sam Edelman shoes! Hahahaha (sorry).
Once again….
HAPPY BIRTHDAY H!!! I HOPE YOU HAD AN AMAZING DAY!!!
