DAY 101: Shop My Closet Career Chic

Mood: Content

Weather: Sunny & Warm (is it still summer?)

Outfit Purpose: Work

Style Savvy: Okay, back to my BLACK denim jeans 5 DIFFERENT ways! This is LOOK #4 which I paired with a vintage Diane Von Furstenberg (DVF) top, DVF blazer, Manolo Blahnik Mary Jane heels and mix of new/vintage jewelry. I tucked my top in and added a black belt to polish my outfit. If you’re office environment is a little more corporate, maybe reserve this outfit for casual Fridays.

Personal Style: Career Chic

Thoughts: When I’m blogging every night, I usually have Pandora music playing and go back and forth with different stations depending on my mood. Lately it’s been love songs. I don’t know why but that’s where I’m at I suppose. I still write poetry from time to time and I feel like lyrics to a song are poetry. It’s so funny that I can listen to certain songs over and over but one night it might really strike an emotional button with me. Like tonight. Leona Lewis’ Better in Time song came on and I usually sing along to the songs because I pretty much know all the words but this time I just listened.

When I get mail from my ex-husband, I still tear up. I hope this stops soon. So the song just resonated with how I’m feeling seeing the mail tonight and his handwriting. Especially these parts of the lyrics:

“Thought I couldn’t live without you / it’s going to hurt when it heals too / it will all get better in time / even though I really loved you / I’m going to smile because I deserve too / oh yeah it will all get better in time … Was it all that easy? / to put aside your feeling / if I’m dreamin / don’t want to let it hurt my feelings / but that’s the past I believe it / and I know that time will heal it …”
