So Much Thanks

One of my absolute favourite colour combos ever - black, white, and red! My room was this colour scheme in junior high!

This was what I wore to a recent work conference. The first day of a conference, I tend to go with the pulled together "smart" look... aaaand day two is usually jeans. Guess which day this was?

Whenever I'm in Truro I try to stop at Jimolly's for a London Fog and some bakery treats. I swear a good London Fog will put me into a happy trance-like state.

This is Thanksgiving weekend in Canada! I have so much to be thankful for this year (and every year really). I've had great opportunities to hang out with friends and family lately (showers and bachelorettes galore), and I know the next few weeks will be full of love with our wedding only two short weeks away. Half the fun is the anticipation, so I'm in a really happy place right now! Not to say that it isn't stressful (especially when you throw in the dramatics of building a house)! Deep breaths...

Happy Thanksgiving to you all. I'll be back next week!

A Day at the Office

I've mentioned before how much I love being able to wear nice things to work. I used to work in a hospital in direct patient care, so I had to wear what was comfortable and easy to wash. Skirts were definitely not appropriate for the work I was doing!

Now I work in an office environment and I go meet with clients in their homes. The office vibe in terms of work wear is pretty varied, but most people wear casual to business casual with jeans on Fridays. It's so nice to actually like what I'm wearing when I walk out the door in the morning. If I have plans after work, there's usually no need to change!

I even caught myself spinning a few times from the filing cabinet to answer the phone.... I could have been taking a very important call, but I may have just wanted to twirl in my skirt!

I'm linking with Alison for a Friday's Fancies post on work wear. Click on the box to see how the other lovely ladies strut their style while on the clock!
