Pinterest | Today, I wore black.

Yesterday, I had a very productive shopping day: everything I had been eyeing lately was purchased. A pair of slingback kitten heels? Bought. That great black and white pencil skirt from Banana Republic? Bought. Speaking of Banana Republic, amen for Marissa Webb – I really like what she’s been doing with the brand. Check out the Huarache Oxfords shown below: per-fec-tion. I will definitely be adding them to my summer wish list on Pinterest. And lastly, a new blazer to tie everything together. By the way, Zara sells great blazers – bon, beau, pas cher as we say in French.

All this to say that I built the perfect power woman outfit and yet, I didn’t spend a penny. Is there anything better than shopping with someone else’s money? There really isn’t – so thank you M. for buying all these items that I loved, but really had no use for in my line of work.
