Do you ever have one of those days when you get dressed for one thing, but end up doing another? For instance I got dressed this morning with the intention of going to a BBQ with Mr. Granola. Before we know it, we've knocked out 4 errands and ended up at our storage unit cleaning it out and schlepping stuff to the donation center (our front curb at home).
So what was supposed to an outfit for BBQ ended up being a moving outfit. How perfect is that? Not so much, but like I always say, life happens and then I blog about it. Because honestly, who wants to waste valuable time going home to change? Not I.

There are some rules for a traveling sales associate. Be on time and wear business comfort. It's a dress code I've come up with for my line of work where I spend countless hours in the car and/or plane. Living in California has it's perks in the business world-- I can get away most days without wearing a suit when visiting customers, which really broadens my dress code options.
Made of wool, this J.Crew skirt is called a "mini" but I intentionally bought it a size too big and got the hem taken out 2 inches to take advantage of the extra 40% off sale. For work I really don't accessorize. It's a very conservative industry and the less flash the better. At most I might wear a bracelet and/or earrings. How much do you accessorize for work?

Here's the official post to these Quick Pics of the Day-- which I wore to the airport and was totally comfortable. I don't know if I've just adjusted since moving from San Diego, but I'm actually feeling warm on most days here. My first winter in the Bay was horrible. I had to buy tons of socks, a Slanket (the original Snuggie) and Uggs. I swear I have never felt so cold and wet in my entire life. So maybe I've officially transitioned. Whatever it is, I like it!
I got this belt during J.Crew Factory's last extra 30% off sale. I was a little disappointed that it's not genuine leather, but I love the color and ostrich print.

Hi Friends!
Long time no see! We've been busy bees shopping for real estate, traveling, and working. It's been awhile since I've done a reveal, so here goes one for my new Tory Burch Natalya wedge pumps. Originally $265 I got these on sale for $185. I realize they're not a great steal, but they're super comfortable and perfect for all the work travel I do.
For sizing reference, I usually wear a size 7.5, but in TB Revas, I'm an 8. I originally bought the black pair in an 8, only to find them too big because the toe box is a bit wider. So I would suggest getting these in your true size. However!!...the tan pair seems to run larger because they're slipping a little. Hmmmmm.
Thanks for checking out my reveal. I snuck in a recent purchase of my pink and orange Big Buddah Celine lookalike bag too, since it matched the boxes so perfectly :)
