I feel like I have been a little MIA, but the end of June kept me pretty busy. I have been thinking of rounding up all the things I did in June into one post, so stay tuned for that. I spent the holiday weekend at home with my family and celebrated my mom’s birthday on Sunday. My dad and sister left for a trip to Mexico on the 4th, so it was just me, my mom and my sister’s Westie Bella. We went out for brunch, and it was nice to get to spend some quality time with her in the morning and continue celebrating with my brother’s family and my grandma in the afternoon.
I was in charge of planning a big retirement event at work, and it is finally over after today. Event planning is fun, but it can be pretty draining when you have a lot of details to think about. Luckily I didn’t do it by myself, but it is nice that it was well-received and that it ended on a positive note.
Today’s outfit features a skirt from LE TOTE that I’ve shared in a previous post. I loved the zipper detail, but in the end decided it wasn’t a piece I needed to keep in my wardrobe. It was fun to style for work and I am sure I could have come up with some more combinations, but I didn’t see myself reaching for it more. I love that I can try pieces by LE TOTE and get a sense of how many times I might be wearing something.
I am most excited about the shoes I paired with this outfit. These DV by Dolce Vita pumps are posh finds! I got a really great deal on them on +Poshmark and love how they look! (They were also only worn once and looked brand new!) If you haven’t joined the app, you need to get on it. You can use my referral code to start off with $5 shopping credit. It’ll be handy to have, especially now that the new bundle feature has been implemented on the app. I haven’t used the new feature in another closet, but I’ve implemented it on mine and now you can automatically request to purchase more than 1 item in my closet with a discount on that bundle. Seriously dangerous,  but it will definitely save time as a seller from having to manually combine items and save you money as a buyer. Let me know if you tried it and what your thoughts are as well!
Hope you are having a great week so far and until next time,
Brandy
