Graduation has passed, the boxes are packed, and I am moving back to Dallas! If I am being honest, I am not ready to leave college, all my friends, the carefree lifestyle of Norman, and the ability to wear athletic clothes and over sized T-shirts without judgment. Last week I had a girl tell me that I must workout a lot, because every time she sees me I am wearing athletic clothes. Well, while I “try” to workout everyday, we all know it is just easier to throw on Lululemon and a pair of Nikes to go to class or the library. Unfortunately leaving college and entering the “real world” means getting dressed for work, not the gym every morning.
When I realized I needed more than jeans and leggings in my closet I went on the hunt for some corporate attire. My first stop was J.Crew, and they had everything I needed plus a 15% discount for students. I found these dress pants and basic tanks in every color imaginable. I wanted a blazer that stood out with my basic pants and top. I found this Twelfth Street by Cynthia Vincent blazer at Neiman Marcus and fell in love with the unique cut, pattern and embroidery. This black, creme and gold blazer also pairs well with a form fitting dress, pencil skirt, or can even be dressed down with dark skinny jeans.
If you are starting the hunt for professional clothes for interviews, internships, or a full time job, I would recommend starting the search at J.Crew. Do not forget to show your student ID at checkout for an extra 15% your purchase (sale items included)! xoxo

Yesterday I took the last test of my 16 years of education, which means graduation must be close! Graduation brings a new and exciting chapter to my life, but it also comes with a scary amount of responsibility. My mom has probably asked me a million times what I plan to wear on this big day, trying to sway me away from yet another black dress. Anyone can tell you that the large majority of my closet is my black dress collection, followed by skirts and tops that can only be described as 50 shades of grey. I finally decided that I should branch out of my black dress and black heel rut to start this new chapter of my life.
Since color is not really my thing, I switched gears from black to white (mainly because my school colors are crimson and cream). I always start my dress hunt at Neiman Marcus and almost always find just what I need right away. I went directly to the Cusp section at Northpark (it is enormous) and tried on every single white dress I could find in my size. Once again the Cusp section of Neiman Marcus pulled through for me. I fell in love with this L’Agance sleeveless sheath the moment I realized it had pockets and knew it would be easy to pair with my favorite Zara heels and of course, my pearls. Not only will this dress be perfect for graduation, but it will also be great for my transition to the working world. xoxo
