Last time I wore this bow was last year’s board meetings at work. I’m not sure what it is about big tweed bows, but they just feel like a good way to spruce up during long meetings.

Important people on campus today means dressing a little more business than casual this week.

About a year about I was generally dressing more formally at work—always neutrals, pencils skirts or slacks and pumps with button up shirts. After about a year here, I realized that A) no one really cared how formally I dressed [to a certain extent] B) I come across as more genuine in my job if I’m wearing things I like.

This outfit is my perfect balance of looking put together at work, without looking boring. (the shoes I’m wearing were my wedding shoes!)
