What I Wore, An Interview and a Question!

Is it really Friday  already, I don't know where this week went! I had a busy and unmotivated dressing week....ever have one of those? Ohhh, and I have an important question I need your help on after my OOTD so make sure to scroll down ;o)

This is me on a lazy chore day and I will warn you now, I look less then thrilled in my my pics this week. (Mental note: smile more during photos)

This was what I wore on a strictly "CDL" day (baby). I can't get enough of these Banana Republic Skinny Jeans, they keep their shape so well....highly recommend!

I also decided to bring one of my wall outfits to life from my fashion wall here . I am not the biggest scarf person but it was a rare dreary day so I took advantage!

And here is my question for you: I have a interview at the Loft next week (whoop, whoop) and I was curious as to your opinion on what I should wear. Should I try to wear mostly Loft pieces or should I feel free to wear whatever I want? Mostly, I wonder about J Crew.....should I not come in dressed head to toe in a competitor?

And lastly, here is what I picked up during the Final Sale Promo at J Crew, I was really proud of myself for keeping it under $40......it was hard to do!

Going Banana(s)

Before I get to today's post, I just want to ask for your prayers and help (if you are in the area) for Chelsea King and her family. She is an amazing kid from our town (Poway, CA) who went missing yesterday afternoon after going out for a run. I can't even begin to imagine what her family is going through. The search efforts have been amazing but at this time they still have no leads as to what has happened.

On a MUCH lighter note, this morning we had a planning meeting for a mother/daughter fashion show that I am "MC-ing" and this is what I wore. Those who do not have daughters, get to borrow them for events I guess :o)

Afterwards, I ran to Banana Republic to get a pair of black pants, they just have the best cuts for my body type. I have not been very impressed with BR lately but that has changed as of today. I had to dart in and out quickly before afternoon carpools started but there are some beautiful pieces. In store they are offering 30% off of all tops so I couldn't resist picking up this beautiful silk tank which I am guessing will fly off the shelves:

Silk Ruffle Front Top (not showing online yet) in this beautiful mint color. I WILL be wearing this tomorrow and will post some IRL pics.

I also picked this necklace up with a whitish clear bead versus purple in the pic off the clearance table. The clearance jewelry is an additional 30% off as well bringing this down to under $19.00.....whoop, whoop!
