The other day when I was writting up my post about what I had done that day I felt a tinge guitly about not having taken ANY pictures of it. I know you guys don't expect it but I think it'd be more interesting if I actually show you what I do all day, right? This past Wednesday, I decided to document my day and make a "a day in the life of" kind of thing for you. Ready? Here we go: On a weekday I (try to) wake up around 7am. Yup, that's my unmade bed. I hope my parents don't see this.  I get ready and leave around 8am. Sometimes taking outfit pictures takes an extra 10 minutes. One last look in the mirror, brush my teeth and I"m off. The subway station is 3 blocks from my house. I take the R three stops before transfering to an express train. The express train goes over the Manhattan bridge and I get to see the New York city scape/Brooklyn Bridge every morning. I work in the Garment district which is right next to Times Square.

If you would like to send me your inquiry, feel free to do so, or just leave a comment in this post with what you'd want to see for the next one. Here's what sparked this idea of mine. I received this question and I had so many ideas as to what I wanted to say and show that I couldn't simply just answer it by itself. I get this type of question frequently and I am aware of the struggles one can face when needing to customize their wardrobe just for work. Here is the question: I work at a professional company that doesn't allow you to wear jeans. I'm normally a jeans a tshirt type girl and i'm finding it a little hard to dress/find clothes that are professional looking yet still fashionable, comfortable, and not too matronly. Do you have any suggestions for work wear? THANKS!! I broke it d...
