Usually when an influencer says “so many of you asked about ____,” they’re lying. One person asked. But I posted about grey jeans and between the comments, the DMs, the texts from friends, so many of you asked about styling them, I had to write this post.
I loathe working from home. I want to go into an office, dress up, see people, separate my work and home lives. But alas, I work remotely. And I love my job, so I need to make this WFH life work for me.
I’m working from home, and I don’t love it. I am the person who likes to get dressed for work, get in my car, commute in, grab a coffee, and go to the office. I like being around people. I like grabbing lunch. I like having a separate work space. WFH is not for me, […]
