Dress (on sale) // similar Shoes // Earrings

You’ve been wanting to know everything I wore in February, haven’t you? I thought so. Let’s start with my 24-hour trip to Chicago for a work retreat. Above is what I wore for the day of the meeting (it says I’m fun but I mean business), and down there is what I wore for the night-before social event (aka lawyers drinking and telling nerdy jokes).

I got this sweatshirt because it’s crazy soft and it makes a statement that is pretty much always going to be true. Same with this one.

The day I wore this, someone told me I looked like a teacher, and another person told me I looked like Sarah Paulson. If there’s a movie where Sarah Paulson plays a teacher, I guess that was my subconscious inspiration.

Sunglasses // Shoes // Nails “Taupe-Less Beach”

The silver lining in the hole in the ozone is that I got to wear sunglasses and go on walks when it should’ve been a frozen tundra. (These shoes are crazy comfy, BTW.)

Earrings

Who else is crazy happy about the special BaubleBar jewelry line for Target? One of everything, please.

February was a month of non-functional neck scarves one day and big cozy blanket scarves the next. I’m proposing a new tagline for the Hoosier state: “Welcome to Indiana. We don’t understand what’s happening here either.”

RIP, pastel sweater. You should’ve gone home with someone who won’t wash you with a bright red dress like an idiot.

How often do people tell you that you look like a celebrity? I wouldn’t say it happens to me that often, but recently more and more people tell me I look like Sarah Paulson. My theory is that she only comes to mind because we have the same name. And we’re blonde white women with big foreheads. I don’t think there’s much resemblance, but she’s quite pretty so I can’t be mad at the comparison! I’ve also gotten January Jones once or twice, and I’m definitely not mad about that one either.

But the “you remind me of…” that I get more than any other is… Angela from “The Office.” Not the actress Angela Kinsey in general, but specifically her character in “The Office.” It annoys me every time, but my annoyed face only serves to intensify my Angela-ness. I can’t deny the resemblance there, but I do like to think I dress better at least.

There’s a new character on “The Mindy Project” this season named Anna who’s an Angela-esque blond with RBF and apparently no interest in making friends. But Anna is much younger and fancier and more successful than Angela, so I’m hoping she can be my new doppelganger.

Alas, I am none of these lovely ladies. I’m just me. Not that I’m complaining, but I wouldn’t mind a movie star paycheck just once. I would have a much bigger collection of Rebecca Minkoff bags, that’s for sure! Then again, a Shopbop* sale also helps with growing designer collections, and it just so happens there’s one going on right now through March 4. All the details are here.
