I'm Lovin' It

I opened the cupboard in our kitchen at work and noticed this AWESOME mug staring back at me and I just smiled so big.  I have been trying to figure out who the owner is so I can give them a big hug.  It has had all of us gals giggling this week, and for that I love it. 

Have Mercy!

I would do just about anything to call this my bathroom.  The pop of yellow, the bright white and light = right up my alley.

My iPad will be taking its first flight on a plane this Sunday and I am thinking I really wish I owned this Vivienne Westwood Derby tartan leather iPad case.  Love that it's pink and leather. 

I have been house sitting for my boss this past week at his gorgeous house on a walk street in Venice and have been loving the evening walks with B down the boardwalk to enjoy a beer at the Venice Ale House and the Waterfront Cafe all while enjoying the sunset.

My thoughtful and sweet coworker left me these lovely and fragrant roses on my desk Tuesday morning with a note that read, "Congrats on your promotion! Very well deserved".  Instantly brightened my mood.

  I purchased  My Private Jet back in the end of February and just got around to painting them this past Sunday and loved the results!  It lasted almost without a chip for 4 days and really sparkled in the sunshine.

This picture is really accurate of how it turns out and shines.  The color will soon be added to my must always have a bottle of collection.

And now I need your help, should I repaint my nails My Private Jet for San Francisco or go bright and bolder for my weekend?  I am on the fence - any polish color that I should absolutely pick for the trip?

Lately getting ready for work has been a chore.  I haven't purchased any new work clothes in a long while and it shows in my closet and attitude at work.  Seeing as I spend 40 hours a week at work I try to take pride in my outfits, which has not been happening lately.  What I need to do is add a few essential pieces into the mix. 

Starting with this Striped Bow Front Skirt.  Perfect with a black cardigan and black heels.  As much as I would love to wear it with those socks and shoes, that just wouldn't fly in my office. 

What office clothing staple can you not live without?

I am in desperate need of some new "lady clothes" for work.  I have been trying to mix up what I already have with different scarves, jewelry or shoes which is great and all, but I really need to add some new pieces.  I would very much like to add this Satin Rose Print Dress into my collection.  I realize that it is a bit sheer, but that could easily be fixed with a simple slip.  I love the color and the little peep hole in the back.  Great as is with some pumps, or I could also easily add a cardigan and my own skinny black belt and boots to fancy it up.

This week marked the first week back to school for many peeps. For me it just meant more traffic on my way into the office as I pass three schools on my route to work. Although I don't get to invest in or sport a "first day of school" outfit, I can try to get more organized at my desk with some fun new "school supplies" or in my case, "office supplies" instead, all courtesy of Forever. 

My desk is dark and formal with a glass overlay.  It currently has all black office supplies from the phone, stapler and file holders.  I think this pink Gothic Paper Tray would add a nice touch of color to my otherwise dark desk.  Plus I love the detailing on the side, functional and fashionable.  Fabulous!

This Chic File Folder will have all the other girls jealous of how stylish my filing looks.  Perfect for transporting your documents from meeting to meeting and still looking chic.

You can't have the Gothic Paper Tray and skip out on the matching Three Sleeve Sorting Rack!  I use my current ugly sorting rack always and would really enjoy looking at something prettier on a daily basis.

Last but not least, I need this Crackled Metallic Notebook to take down notes at meetings, jot down important phone numbers and doodle whenever I am bored.  I love that it just adds a little pizazz to the everyday.
