don't want to fade

I had a initial meeting for a potential job today. I was going for formal but a little casual at the same time since it wasn't a full on formal interview. This is what I wore and came up with...

Top: Glassons / Skirt: Temt / Jacket: Valleygirl / Shoes: No. 1 Shoe Warehouse

Twenty Minutes and Sixty Dollars Later... (Work Edition!)

So. I decided that it would be much better if I just went to Sylvia Park and just bought a top, skirt and shoes instead of going home cos I was interning in Grey Lynn and didn't think I'd have enough time to go back home before going to work cos I got called in at 12.30pm.

This is what I ended up with. Not bad for a complete outfit (minus jacket) for $60, don't you think? And I will most probably wear the top in my day-to-day wear as well! Bonus! =) (this is how I pretty much buy all/most of my -black- work wear... as well as meeting work wear standards also has to meet my general would I wear this in my day-to-day life?)

I'm also contemplating/toying with the idea of opening another website where I share tips, advice and just general posts on fashion, beauty, DIY, etc? Good idea? I just feel that I don't want to 'contaminate' my personal blog and this blog with other things... I'd also want to of course possibly open it to readers contributing too. But, anyways, comments would be appreciated! Enjoy this post. If you've read all of this, you are awesome. Have a heart, ♥ or two..  ♥♥

Top: Temt, $9.99 // Skirt: Temt, $29.99 // Shoes: Garage, The Warehouse, $20 

L-R (top, clockwise): Close of top, love the neckline... // Shoes close up, love the little bow details! // My daily jewellery, with subsitions of course, sometimes. // Semi-close up of the bow ring. $5 at Bling. Bargain! <3

And, that is what I wore today, to work. And pretty much 80% of what I would normally wear to a day of work at the electronics store. And that cost less than $100 and just over $50!

you put it down like new york city

I haven't been wearing dressses due to me being employed!!! I have given up unfortunatey :( maybe next year.... at least I tried 50% of the month..... I think.

Anyways! I bought this new top from Cotton On cos I was desperately needing a white top for work. I forgot to get another one at home before I left! T_____T forgetful is my middle name. I really like the flowiness of it, ever since I modelled this similar loose-fitting top, I wanted one. And now I have one! :D

What do you guys think?



I am also seriously in love with that song right now!
