Sunday Style: A Million Bucks

Image
I wonder what it would be like to have a million bucks. I wonder how quickly that money would be spent. I wonder if I would feel more safe or secure knowing I have a million bucks? I wonder if I would get treated differently if people knew I was a millionaire. Random thoughts that go through my head when people say "you look like a million bucks" or "I feel like a million bucks". Whenever I put on a karinadresses dress, I always feel like I am special - like this dress was designed just for me- or maybe like a million bucks?! It doesn't matter which style or color I wear, I can't help but feel pretty. The fabric is lightweight and easily packable and it doesn't wrinkle so it's great for traveling or sitting in meetings. I find I reach for these dresses more than any of the other ones that I own!  This dress is no exception. I was drawn to the color and print, but the Katharine style which shows off my waist, is also one of my favorites! I d...

Sunday Style: The Prom That Never Was

Maybe it's the fact that I am teaching every day now but I have become nostalgic and find myself reminiscing about my younger years when I was in school. Fifth and sixth graders don't go to proms but you would be surprised at the talk that I hear..."we are dating, he cheated on me"...I told one girl that she needs to enjoy her time being a kid and don't worry about dating. She will have plenty of time to get out there and date- but not when you are eleven! Anyways, I digress. I didn't go to a prom because I went to Christian school. There was no prom but we did have a Junior-Senior Banquet each year. I remember fondly my Junior year and my double date. I wore a beautiful navy dress off the rack from TJ Maxx - I vividly remember how much I loved this dress. It was a regular dress, nothing fancy, and I remember wearing it to church as well.

Tuesday Blues

Today I am meeting clients again for the second day in a row. It's rare that I get out and get to actually interact with people in person since I work remotely. I love this Gap dress but decided to make it a little more professional by putting a jacket over it and nude pumps. I don't have the blues but Tuesday is such a funny day. Monday is so dreaded, Wednesday is hump day- we're halfway done!, Thursday is Friday Eve and Friday is the start to the weekend. Tuesday is just Tuesday. Sometimes it's a repeat of Monday or it's just a bad day for some people if they didn't get their work done on Monday.  I try not to spend my life wishing away the days towards the weekend. They are all special and I'm thankful I get to wake up and enjoy another day, even if it is a Tuesday... Hope your week is off to a great start!  Sandae Dress- Gap Jacket- Calvin Klein via Macy's Shoes- Nine West via Marshalls Necklace- Anna...
