I’ve been looking for a dress for my own graduation, and wow, you read my mind with that Ted Baker dress. Ordered almost immediately! Thanks for sharing!

I’m so glad. I was shopping with my brother’s fiancee, and while she was in the changing room and saw it across the Nordstrom and was like, “That. Now. Ring it up.”

I loved number 5. Thank you so much for sharing!
I work as outside counsel for a Fortune 500 company, which means I work *all the time.* And I barely know anyone my age, in any industry, who doesn’t–yet we’re collectively labeled as “lazy.” I read an article recently lamenting the future if Millenials became the country’s attorneys, doctors, teachers, etc., and I thought, honey, do you not realize we’ve been your doctors/attorneys/teachers/engineers for several years now (and the world hasn’t ended)?!

Oh my goodness preach. I’m always working, too – and, sure, I crave work-life balance like any sane person but don’t call me lazy when I’m working 12+ hour days.

I wanted to follow up on this post and let you know that I purchased the mint green skirt from the Limited. I love it! The fabric feels substantial, the asymmetrical hemline is beautiful, and I can tell this is quickly going to be a work horse for my weekday wear. It runs ever so slightly large and I’m going to need it darted in a bit at the waist. Thank you for the suggestion!
