Trend: Bold Lipstick

Okay. Finally gave in and purchased Nars Heat Wave.

Weekender

For quick trips the weekender is the perfect piece of luggage. It helps me keep my tendency to over pack under control and when I've got a cute bag to load it all in, I actually look forward to packing. Check out these adorable, getaway bags.

Lug Fitness/Overnight Bag

What I really love about this one is that it doubles as a gym bag. You're able to slip your yoga mat right into the front pocket! I own the puddle jumper, which also can be used as gym bag and includes a ventilated compartment to store your tennis shoes.

Girl in Train Station

Along with my big girl internship, comes a new world of fashion...business attire. I'm always looking for inspiration and I realized that the train stain is just the place. Yesterday I spotted  a girl in her early 20s  to my right wearing a simple, modern outfit. She paired a crisp pale blue button up with a tucked-in graphite colored pencil skirt. And on her feet?...black flats! That's my kind of girl.  What a simple way to look professional, yet modern and fresh. I paged through a few sites to try and find similar items.

Go one step further and show your personality with a funky belt.

I chose Essie's Sand Tropez polish for the first day of my internship. While I usually go for bright colors in the summer time, I thought I'd try a neutral to go with my new working-girl wardrobe. This barely there color exceeded my expectations and didn't leave me feeling dull...but rather fresh, sophisticated and clean.
