I’m trying something new today. Per Mayor’s request I’m going to post a photo of me! It’s kind of a funny concept but I’m going to give it a try and see how this goes. I’m playing around with Apple’s PhotoBooth Application (which is what I used to take this photo of myself). I’ve been struggling for a long time trying to figure out how to take a photo of myself and it finally dawned on me just now — DUH I can use PhotoBooth! Photobooth uses the embedded camera on the Macbook Pro to take photos, but the nice thing is is that it will delay the capture a few seconds so it gives you time to set up for the picture.
This is me ladies! It’s Friday in the office so I went for a semi-casual look.. nothing too ratty. Lately, I’ve been letting myself slip a bit and wearing jeans and oversized sweaters to work. I thought to myself this morning I should dress in such a way that matches how I feel about my work. I don’t want to appear too laid back or sloppy!
I started with a white tank and threw on my over-sized white button up that I got in Korea the last time I was there from a store called Supermarket in Apgujongdong. The one thing about this shirt is it’s a little too thin and flimsy so it’s riding up and poofing out a little more than I’d like. I also added a belt I got the last time I was in Vegas at the Elie Tahari outlet. This helped pull in the poof and make me look a little less pregnant. You can’t really see the pin stripe pants but they were from… MY FAVORITE GUILTLESS PLEASURE (forever 21
I was struggling with which jacket to wear. I tried on a cardigan but it just didn’t feel right, then tried a jean jacket but that was too casual. This cropped beige jacket I have on was the final and last thing I was going to try and it ended up looking the best (at least i think). I can’t recall the name of the boutique I got it from but it’s in Burlingame. That reminds me I’m going to have to drop by there soon!
Well let me know what you guys think of my semi-casual-Friday-look! And have a great weekend!

i really like this feature. please keep it up! also, love the little jacket – may i ask the brand? thx!
I love that you’re trying this and will commit to trying a look once a week from your submissions. i too am a fan of the jacket but I think I like how sheer the top from Korea even more. I have a couple shirts like that at home and really like using them to layer up or down.
Hi there! Really happy you liked this post. Thanks for taking the time to comment! I’ll try to keep it up. The brand of the jacket I’m wearing is Triple Five Soul. If you haven’t heard of it it’s a hip hop brand. Check their site out:
