I've been at the new job for about 2 weeks now. I won't say I've settled into a routine just yet, but am starting to get comfortable enough where I can go on instinct (not having to think) during my commute. One main difference I've noticed between this new project vs. my last one is the age group of my coworkers around me. This project skews a lot younger, so much so that I'm probably one of the outliers. And for the first time in my working career, I'm surrounded by a good number of females -- stylish ones, too! I met a girl in the elevator who wanted to know where I got today's tweed jacket from. When I happily told her, "Zara, and it's recent, so you can find it online," her face completely lit up. It made my day.

My current hair is at that awkward stage where I love the shorter length but hate how there's not enough to weigh down the volume at the crown. So I typically use a clip to partially pull my hair back or my go-to on lazy weekends -- a hat to solve my hair issues.

Remember what I previously said about repeating shoe and bag combinations multiple times a week? I can now also add this skirt to the multiple-wears-per-week list. It's probably the best fitting (office appropriate) skirt I own, so why not squeeze in as many wears as possible?

Today's feminine twist on a military inspired outfit is thanks to Maje via The Outnet. Remember how I was recently talking about not having worn my floral lace dress in awhile? Well, turns out it was more than just a fleeting thought because I knew the dress would be the perfect finishing piece for my outfit recreation.

Well, technically just one boy -- my husband. I raided his closet for a jacket that would fit over my bulky fur vest (all the coats I own are all too form-fitting in the torso.) I can't recall the last time he wore this jacket... perhaps more than a year ago? It used to be his go-to until another favorite came along, so it's been hidden in the back of his closet ever since. He didn't even notice I had borrowed it for the day. Win-win all around, I'd say.
