20120820-210013.jpgMonday was the first day of classes in my second year of law school. And just like any other first day of school, I was excited to pick out my outfit. I did my back-to-school shopping (even though I haven’t physically grown out of clothes in about 12 years, I feel I emotionally grow out of them, and also I like to shop), so I was ready to wear some of my new clothes!

Because my summer is over, and I’ll be schooling instead of working, you’ll be seeing sort of a shift in my style from business casual to grad school casual. Hopefully you’ll still enjoy reading!

A casual peplum top was on my wish list (no really – it was official), and I happened to find this at Zara when I was in Chicago last month. What luck! It zips in the front so it can be worn open like I did here, or closed. When it’s zipped up, it shows off the peplum shape more, so that’s on my to-wear list (I don’t have an actual to-wear list, although that’s totally something I would do).

I wore this out to dinner and a comedy show last Friday. I actually wore the same thing to work that day, but with flats and a full-size bag. We’ll just skip the cliche part where I tell how this outfit “goes effortlessly from desk to cocktails” or some crap like that. Let’s just say it’s cute and call it a day, shall we?
