Blue Trench

Posted on May 25, 2012by Brandy Saldana

Blue Trench Coat Love 21 | Green and Navy Tank Top Diane Von Furstenberg | Black Slacks and Gold Bracelets Forever 21 | Peacock Necklace Betsey Johnson | Gold Peep-Toe Flats Christian Louboutin I love my peacock necklace!
Although I am not too creative in how I wear it. So far I’ve paired it with the same trench blue coat as last time.
Today was a different type of experience at work. My afternoon was full of meetings, and most were fun because it was related to the video committee I am now a part of. We scoped the lab we would be using to film our first safety video, and afterwards I met up to write a shot list at a nearby cafe. I am finally utilizing my English degree by writing a “script” for our movie!
I cannot wait to see the end result, but I must tidy up the script we worked on first. I am glad the office allows me to be creative, not just with my clothes, but with the actual work I get to do.

Tiger Eyes

Posted on May 17, 2012by Brandy Saldana

Tiger Print Jeanne Wrap Dress Diane Von Furstenberg (similar here) | Tiger Bangle Forever 21 | Nude Ulltra Patent Pumps Steve Madden | Sunglasses Tory BurchI feel amazing.
Not just because I am wearing a DVF wrap dress I actually thrifted (yes, this beauty was found at a thrift store), but because I kicked butt with the presentation I had at work that I collaborated with the Director of our office.
Needless to say, not only did it feel good rocking a designer dress I did not pay much for, but I felt proud of the work I did and the positive feedback I received for it.
Now not only do I look good in terms of the way I dress, but I am also looking good in the eyes of my boss as a valuable team member.
If only work was always this easy. Oh well, at least shopping is.

High Collar

Black and White Button Down Kailey Shirt Diane Von Furstenberg | Black Cardigan, Shiny Black Pants, Bow Ring Forever 21 | Black Patent Ulltra pumps Steve MaddenHurray! A post uploaded the day the photo was taken, so we are back on schedule.
It has been an interesting day, and all because I am finally working on more projects for the Director of our office. I realized today how much I would love to have a job where I can be creative, contribute ideas, and be able to just create things that are worthwhile. My work today did not feel like work, and I felt I could work on the photos and Powerpoint for hours.
I read recently on a forum for recent college grads about the 3 choices one can make after finishing school. One is to work right away and work on your passion on the side until it takes off, the second is to dive all in with whatever savings you have and see where your passion can take you. The third of course is to just work in a career and not worry if it is your passion, and unfortunately that is usually the case in order to have financial stability.
I feel like I am doing option 1 at the moment by not only working on my blog (which I could also spend hours on), but also by learning the basics of decorating cakes. Some days I want to be a reporter for a fashion magazine, the next a stylist, and then an amazing pastry chef.
As long as I keep at it, I’m sure it is only a matter of time before I figure out what I really want to do.

Burberry Plaid Skirt

Posted on May 13, 2012by Brandy Saldana

Navy School Boy Blazer and White Sweater Top Forever 21 | Red Plaid Mini Skirt Burberry | White Leather Cross Body Bag Coach | White Heaven Flats Steve Madden
Schoolgirl look! I tried to aim for something more like Gossip Girl or like the Korean Drama Boys Over Flowers and the really cool private school uniforms they had.
I found this skirt by chance at my favorite Crossroads. It was my first time finding Burberry at a used clothing store. It was too cute to pass up, and I will need it once I can afford my camel Burberry trench!
Anyways, my cupcakes were a hit at work during our surprise good-bye party for Tiana, so it was worth the effort I put into them.
We also headed out for Happy Hour afterwards, and we had a great time at Triple Rock. I will miss my fellow coworker, but I know we will see each other soon someday.

Anchor

Posted on May 10, 2012by Brandy Saldana

Cardigan Diane Von Furstenberg | Dress Twelve by Twelve | Necklace Forever 21 | Flats Steve MaddenAnchor’s away! Once again I bring out my oversized vintage DVF cardigan and paired it with a dress and necklace from Forever 21. I am just missing my sailor hat, but then again that would be going overboard, no pun intended, on the nautical trend.
It’s funny, but I did not think this dress flattered me anymore, and it is because I am not a fan of dresses, or tops, with a high neck since I feel it will make me look shorter. It is nice to be proven wrong. This dress is really fun and I like how it works with my other items.

I think this look is more of a weekend dress for visiting the wharf or walking down a pier with an ice cream cone in hand. Maybe even to be on a boat. Why not go a little more nautical with it? What’s your take on the nautical trend?
