Air Filters

Sorry I've been MIA for a few days. The new house purchase and the new job combined with a catastophe at the new house has resulted in a complete abandoment of the internet for almost a week. Yikes!

Rand's Daily Outfit Assessment: "That shirt looks like an air filter. You know, like the ones for your house."

What I Wore While Blending In:

• white skirt (Avenue)
• white tank (Old Navy)
• black/white blouse (Target)
• orange pumps (via DSW)
• white bracelet (H&M)
• orange earrings (gift)
• orange belt (Target new stock via Goodwill)

So, this is my casual Friday outfit from last week. Pretty much it's what I would have worn on a regular day at my old job and a lot dressier than I would have ever worn on Friday. As I said previously, this new job is at a significantly more conservative firm, so I wanted a fairly conservative look even on Friday.

Ways I tried to be conservative in this outfit:

• white denim rather than blue*
• matchy matchy accessories (since matching accessories is more traditional)
• a collared shirt
• heels rather than flats

Ways I stayed true to my personal style:

• bright accessories
• fun, patterned shirt

* I think it was a good choice considering that the only denim I saw on other women at the firm that day was also white denim. I blended right in.
