Sunny Disposition

My trusty Kate Spade work bag has gone everywhere with me.  My dad bought it for me when I was in law school and now it holds all my goodies and court files. Ordinarily, I would have worn a handbag that perfectly matched this outfit but I don't always perfectly match when going to work. This bag is so functional that I don't even think about whether or not it "matches" that day or not. I call it my Mary Poppins bag but I'm constantly reminding my husband that it isn't a backpack as he hands me tons of papers and crap to stuff in my bag for him.  Maybe I should get him a man bag?  Hmmm... :-)  If I'm a little slow answering emails/comments please accept my apologies.  I have big things going on at work but will be back to my old self after Wednesday!

Hello, Friday!  I've missed you..  I will need this weekend to go by very slowly so that Monday stays away as long as possible.  Happy weekend :-)

Champagne Wishes

Another Monday down.  Work has been piling up lately but I try not to let that stress or bring me down.  At these moments, I just try to remember how hard I have worked to get to the position that I am at now.  I try to remember back to those days of camping out at the law school library or staying up almost all night studying for the bar exam.  It was a lot of hard work, so, I don't throw myself a pity party.  Instead, I try to remember back to the Maria that hoped and prayed would be right where I am right now...swamped drafting and prepping for hearings but secretly loving every minute.  Does anyone else have ways to get your mind off of stress?

Sunny Evenings

These bright sunny evenings are throwing me for a loop lately.  After a long day at the office, I can't wait until I can get into my comfy pjs, throw a big blanket over me and either watch some tv or catch up with some blogs.  However, the sun shining so brightly through my windows makes me think that maybe I shouldn't start to wind down so early even though it's 7:00 p.m.  Then again, working the long hours then leaving work when it's still bright out has its perks.  I digress...

Linking up with The Pleated Poppy!

Cold Hearted Snake

I think my mirror memorized the lyrics and dance moves to 'Cold Hearted Snake' seen as though I gave the mirror a concert to it a million times.  Anywho, I'm linking up today with Marionberry Style and this month's challenge was animal print.  I have my fair share of leopard print but this is the only snakeskin print I own.  I feel very fancy pants skirts in this...see what I did there...I crack myself up :-)  Also linking up with The Pleated Poppy!

Fallen Leaves

The leaves have fallen!  I love how pretty nature is this time of year.  This past weekend, I picked up a bunch of pine cones and next weekend I plan on using them for a diy project I found on Pinterest.  Gotta love the weekends!  I finally got my hands on the Stella & Dot renegade bracelet, many many many thanks to Jamey and Jack's Mom!

Purple and Stripes

The weather is absolutely terrible in Florida and has been non stop raining.  Days like these calls for comfy clothes which to me are pajamas but I can't really wear that to work.  My next comfy outfit is cardigan and pants.  Oh how I long for the days where wearing pajamas to work is acceptable...I promise to make them cute pj's!

Business Woman Special

If you recognize where my post title comes from, I love you and we can be friends, if not, you make me feel old and that's bad.  Have a great weekend!
