Custodians came in after school to replace a bulb that blew above our desks. I remarked that it smells AWFUL when those things burn out. The cologne of the one custodian lingered in the room after he left, and I swore he smelled like my brother who's worn the same cologne for over 20 years. Naturally, I followed him into the next room and asked him if he wore Eternity. He said no, but it does smell like Eternity. As my intern and I walked out of the building, I complained that the trashcan reeked of fish. I'm both impressed by and disappointed in my nose these days.
This outfit, of course, impresses me. Most impressive of all? I managed to pick it out this morning instead of last night.
The Look:
Jacket: via thredUP
Pants: Motherhood Maternity
Top: LOFT
Flats: Sole Society
Necklace: J.Crew Factory
Headband: Target
At first I thought you were wearing pantyhose on your head-- like a bank robber or something. Glad I scrolled down to find out it was just a headband. Fluorescent lights are the worst. The smell just adds to the reason to hate them. (I read a study last year that being in fluorescent lighting for long periods of time on end contributes to depression.) Anyway, I love the look of this outfit and love that all your outfits lately seem to be ones you'll be able to wear again after ZaZa comes :)
ReplyDeletePregnancy super smell is ridiculous. My office was right next to this little kitchenette thing and I wanted to murder people who brought in certain things for lunch. I just don't think it's every appropriate to microwave anything fishy in a public space! The flatiron trick is pretty smart. I mean, I don't have a flatiron, but if I did, I would totally try it!
ReplyDeleteEdgy and classy indeed! I've never seen a layered look with a moto jacket on top. I love this! Is it just the pregnancy or did your sinus surgery also affect your superhuman sense of smell? I'm sure that gets annoying real fast.
