You've Got Mail

I'm on my blackberry all the time--I heart my blackberry very much. I have a trade show tomorrow, so I kept getting e-mail after e-mail because I haven't received the items I needed to display yet for tomorrow, so I ended up taking a picture with my blackberry at work...Luckily the items arrived later that day, but I need to put in some late hours tonight to make sure I have everything that I need for the show.

I don't usually carry purses with me since I normally carry a laptop bag but I thought this purse would look great with this outfit so I took it out of its dust bag. Plus my hubby bought me some Nike+ Air running shoes since my other ones were falling apart, I hope I get better soon (still have a cough) because I want to really break them in.

Still a little sick

Thank you so much for the Get Well wishes, the truth is I'm still sick and have been living on Thermaflu for the past 3 days. You would never know it by the pictures but today is the first day I'm feeling much better.

I went to go see clients plus attend a business dinner last night, in which the topic was about the economy. They claim its been stable with a rise of 3% growth, not sure how much I believe that--especially when I have friends that can't find a job, but let's just hope.

The Event

Boy, do I look terrible--I started to catch a cold yesterday evening and this morning it just kept getting worse and worse and we had a fundraiser to attend to tonight, it was called The Event.

It was held at a Yacht Club and there was a silent and live auction. This was our number #137 and it was to raise money for programs at a local elementary school (keep in mind I don't have any children...LOL) , we tried to bid on items but when a parking space goes for $6k, its hard to keep up with the Joneses and the Rockefeller's.

It was fun, but I really wanted to go home and crawl into bed, I'm ready for some tea and some sleep.

Wardrobe Capsule--Day 4

As much as I love the experience, I can't wait until this is over, I really do like my shoes and I enjoy wearing a different pair every day, so sticking to two pairs is actually depressing me...LOL.

I was told I look very christmassy--that's what happens when you can only wear a few items...LOL
Happy blogging all!

Wardrobe Capsule--Day 3

Doing this wardrobe challenge proves to me that I don't need anymore clothes. Its seems I can go a week with the same 2 pants, 1 dress, 2 shirts, 1 vest, 1 sweater and 1 jacket plus 2 shoes and 5 accessories. I'm pretty amazed at myself that I could do this, because its a lot easier than I thought.

tights--Simply Vera by Vera Wang
