Today, I was driving to work, wearing my favorite sunglasses on the first really nice morning of the year, and decided it was time to share some of the best purchases that I made during the last 12-months.  So let’s jump straight into the list.

These Ray-Bans are my favorite sunglasses.  I love the black and gold combo.  The aviator shape is a classic.  I get asked about them all the time.

I wore this Banana Republic Double-Breasted Blazer yesterday.  It’s so chic.  The off-white color is perfect for all four seasons.  It also comes in black, navy or camel.  I own all of the colors. ????

Need comfortable pants for work?  Maybe pants that can stretch to accommodate weight gain or a baby bump?  NYDJ’s Sculpt Her line is the secret.  I bought these Flare Legs and their Pull-On Leggings (really thick, work-appropriate fabric).  The line also comes in plus-size.

I needed a pair of simple stud earrings to wear to work.  I didn’t want anything too sparkly or too big.  These Shashi Studs are perfect.  Large enough, but subtle.  And did I mention they’re under-$35?

I was skeptical that this v-neck tee from LOFT would be as good as influencers claim.  But I was wrong.  It comes in a bunch of colors.  Sizes run XXS to XXL.  It’s also on sale.

The Emily Dress from MM LaFleur is universally flattering.  You can wear it casual and a-line, or belt it for a more fitted look for the office.  And, it’s flattering on a baby bump. I own it in four colors.  It also comes in plus-sizes.
