Must haves in your work wardrobe

Image
Hey Gems, How is everyone's weekend going? I got a request that I loved from a reader asking what they need in order to have all the needs for a new job. I am so excited for this because I went crazy in buying all sorts of wardrobes when I started working that I didn't end up needing! So here are the top few items everyone should have in their work wardrobe that will make sure they are all set! 1. Black jeans So its no question that some offices require more formal dress but most now are satisfied with business casual! This means black jeans, no rips and a nice top. I suggest buying 2 pairs of black jeans because they will need to always be ready to go when you need! 2. A go-to blazer One blazer is enough and trust me on that! I have so many and never wear them! I only really use blazers when meetings, important clients, etc. are ongoing. If there is no need for a blazer, it isn't my favourite.  3. You don't need a tone of dress shirts Okay so, I bought a tone of nice s...

Quarantine Fashion

Hey gems,  The pandemic is starting to lighten up in a lot of places and the world is starting to get going in the new normal. I really have been learning so much over the last few months, with all the projects that this time has allowed me to start and work on!  One of the major things I have been learning about is money, since my expenses went down I have been super careful to save as much as I can but the truth is, I also am seeing the unecessary purchases I made in the past. For example I have tones of summer dresses and outfits I bought before the fall and the pandemic. They won't ever be wasted because I know I will wear them eventually but my outfit choices have definitely changed because of the pandemic! Now that I can dress more cozy while working from home I have some new fashion faves! Biker Shorts I feel like I have discovered a whole new world owning biker shorts now! I pretty much live in them as much as I can, they are supportive comfortable and they can just be...

My Biggest Fears

Hey gems, Letting you all in on some personal things today, fears. We all have them, and I keep being told that the only way to conquer your fears is to face them head on so why not just blow them out of the water... to whoever is reading this. The first fear is just so inconvenient. I've mentioned how much I love summer, the beach, etc. well, I'm also TERRIFIED of the ocean. The way the ocean pulls you in, when you can't touch the bottom and are being pulled in, or the fact that there are sharks, jellyfish and all kind of other living things around that an sneak up on you at any moment *Insert anxiety meltdown here*. This fear is probably the one want to conquer the most because I truthfully love the ocean in theory. I love the freedom, the live within it, and the fact that it covers more than 70% of the world!! I want to be able to run into the ocean and let myself feel Zen in that salty water, but it has been really hard for me. The last tie  was in the ocean I h...

Fall Obsessions

Fall has officially arrived in all its glory! Which unfortunately means some rain but also means it’s time for a Fall Obsessions segment! I've already done the Fashion Faves so I thought it would be fun to do some fall must haves too! Honestly, I'm a summer gal, but I can't complain about the wool sweater and fluffy scarf weather. So here we are, it’s cold season and as a person who gets sick (all the time), but still loves the cool weather, I think a Fall Obsessions blog is a must. David's Tea I'm an obsessive tea drinker and there are two that I always have on hand in the colder seasons of the year.   Cold 911  is a must for anyone who gets sick in the colder weather, but also anyone who loves minty smells. This tea is so soothing it smells just like Vaporub and is perfect for any days you're feeling like you need a little boost.  Sore Throat Rescue  is my second fall must, yes the title is literally promoting itself as a sore throat tea, BUT the ...
