1) It’s no fun, but you have to negotiate your salary. Here’s how. (We Are Mel)

3) Washington, D.C. is the restaurant city of the year. (Bon Appetit)

4) LOFT is having a 40%-off sale.  This lantern sleeve jacket is a work must.  I also like this woodblock print dress for casual days.

6) SheFinds ranked bralettes by support and found the Cosabella Dolce Soft Bra was the most supportive.

7) An illustrated guide to folding anything and everything. (My Domaine)

8) This Alexis Bittar encrusted cuff bracelet is an absolute stunner.  They also make a matching ring.

    That Loft lantern jacket is in my cart as we speak- I just love the goldenrod colour and it’s such a beautiful blazer, unlike any that I own.

    Have a job interview for the first time in 11 years tomorrow, thanks for posting about negotiating salary!

    My first big ask is going to be for a start date that will allow me to complete some obligations in my current job, when I know they need someone right away.
