what i wore: all business

Yesterday I gave a big presentation at work and wanted to look très professional (and, of course, on trend). I was inspired by all of the street style photography of effortlessly chic girls from New York Fashion Week to rock an all black look on the sunny California fall day.

Here’s what I wore: my new black Gap (Equipment knock-off) silk blouse tucked into a bouclé textured skirt, polka dot sheer tights and black mary jane heels. All business yes, but also, a little bit of fun (see pink friendship bracelets)- I don’t like to look toooo serious as I do work in a creative environment, after all.

And in case you were wondering, I aced the presentation!

    I think this outfit works so well because of all the different textures that you use. Black on black is a hard look to put together and you did a fantastic job.

    Congrats on a great presentation!

We’ll see where I take this but in the mean time it’s fun to switch it up and say I do both 😉. It will be hard for me to never be a snowboarder girl 🏂 again and I’m so proud of my skills there, but it’s also nice to stand up properly and not have my bum freeze from constantly sitting on the snow, and get off the chair with ease 🤣. Also cheers to new ski friends (some of my favorite kinds of friends) and isn’t this furry ski hood so cute? All the hot ski girls are doing it @courtwildson 💕! #skihood @pictureorganicclothing

As we know, he’s still got it, and it had been way too long (maybe since early college since I’ve seen Dave live, and at least 10 years since I’ve been to the gorge for Sasquatch, campground is the same, which is comforting!). What a great way to officially end the summer and with great friends too! 🌅@davematthewsband @gorgeamphitheatre
