Happy Friday!

April Fools. It’s only Wednesday. But I did wear this last week for casual Friday.

That is about as far as I go with April Fools jokes. I really hate it when I fall for pranks, so I don’t like to play them on other people. It’s not really a matter of being nice (am I saying that word right? is it nyce? or more like niece?). I just figure if you play pranks on people, you’re more likely to piss them off and make them want to get back at you. So I’m going to just keep being sarcastic because I’m perfectly capable of taking sarcasm. Feel free to leave me some in the comments.

Since it’s April 1, you know what that means (other than a day to NOT play tricks on Sarah)…it’s the start of this month’s Top 10 Remix style challenge! This outfit is the last of my pre-challenge looks from March, so tomorrow you’ll start seeing my Top 10 creations. What is this challenge, you ask? Short version: pick your 10 favorite things that define your personal style, and work 1 of those items into everything you wear this month. If you’re on social media, share photos with the hashtag #Top10Remix, and if you’re a blogger, blog about your experience with the challenge and join the weekly linkup. I’ve already heard from several you, and I’m soooooo excited to see what you all pick! (And I swear, that’s not sarcasm.)

I’ve been trying to focus this month’s shopping on office-appropriate basics, and I’ve mostly done an awesome job. And when you do an awesome job at something, you want to celebrate. What’s a good way to celebrate? Having a drink with friends. What do you say when you toast your drinking friends? “Cheers!” And that’s what it says on this adorable sweatshirt that I bought this month even though it’s not an office-appropriate basic. BUT! (she says triumphantly) my office declared a casual Friday last week so I hid my sweatshirt under a blazer with my nicest jeans and voila! A trendy sweatshirt becomes something I totally bought on purpose to wear to work. Good job, me. I should celebrate. See what I did there?
