Hello blog friends!
I can finally let the cat out of the bag- I'm starting a new job soon! It's been in the works for a couple months, so it's very exciting to finally be able to chat about it. I'm transitioning from integrations to data & analytics. I'm also switching to a real business casual environment. My current gig describes the dress code as business casual, but flip-flops, jeans, and t-shirts are totally acceptable. While I'm partially excited, I'll miss having the option to show up in Birks and destructed boyfriend jeans 🙈. I'll also miss my coworkers. Many of my coworkers have also become dear friends, and I will really miss seeing them on the daily.
As soon as I accepted the offer, I start shopping for a few more business casual staples (no jeans! the travesty!) I'd been eyeing this blazer at Ann Taylor, and it was an additional 50% off (and is actually an even better deal now!). So I picked up the blazer and skirt on a whim, and I actually really like them together! Plus how cute will the skirt be with maroon tights in the winter?
I also plan to wear this blazer and skirt with this supersoft wine colored tee and this pale blue sweater. I think the jacket would be super cute with skinny navy trousers too. Basically, the mix and matching options are endless 👍

Congratulations on the new job! Good luck with the transition. What a fabulous way to celebrate by buying a fabulous new outfit! This suit is stunning. The colors and pattern are stunning and so much fun. And those shoes! I have them in blue velvet, but now I am thinking I might need burgundy for fall as well.
