You know the feeling where there aren't enough hours in the day, but there are so many exciting things you want to do and accomplish, and they'd totally happen, but first you have to deliver top notch work at your full time job, and find time to be sociable, and then, you can come home and work on your pet projects? I'm fulfilled and excited by what's on my plate and by what I continually push myself to do in addition. Back when I started this blog in 2006-2007 I was just looking for a place to put whatever was in my head out on a public space and see if anyone shared the same ideas thoughts, or hey, even challenged them sometimes. When I've got nothing worthy to say I'm not going to post.

I had this Zara dress tailored to fit my body better and I seriously think I get more compliments on it than other more pricey designer dresses. It just goes to show that when it comes to shopping at Zara you can find real gems if you're vigilant about purchasing quality fabrics (this dress is 100% cotton/linen) and being careful to fit your body right. In this case, the straps were a little too long for my height (being 5'3" is kind of a pain because almost everything is too long, AMIRITE) For example, Sally is currently tailoring my Kiini swimsuit, which seemed like a silly request when I got there, but Sally was all business and so nice about fitting it to my body during my lunch hour.

These tiny little investments have been on my person so many times throughout the years that they have been well worth the upfront investment. I can't say enough good things about each of these designers, especially since I've blogged and worn all of these pieces hundreds of times already. The only thing left to say is truly go out in the real world and touch and feel them. I guess another thing I can say here is that I definitely am looking forward to expanding my little collection with some little pieces from, and.

There's nothing here to muse about here other than the topic of boxy outfits. The super flowy and tenty kind on the top half of your body, where your stomach partially your hips are completely shrouded in a top that any coworker could cheerfully say, "You can be 8-month's pregnant int that outfit! " (True story, real "compliment"). , I'm a big fan of Spongebob Squarepants proportions because I feel like it's selective sexiness, or picking your battles: I choose to show off my legs (which I hardly ever do), and therefore choose to hide everything else behind a cloud of cloth mystery.
