Gift Guide: for the graduate!

As I graduated this month from my MSW (Master's in Social Work) program, I thought it was fitting to put together a gift guide for the graduate.

shoes (top to bottom): 1 // 2 // 3 // 4

purses (top to bottom): 1 // 2

makeup bag // wallet // organizer

earrings // necklace 1 // necklace 2 // watch

** Comfortable yet chic shoes are a must during the grueling interview process. You want to put your best foot forward during the interview and not be distracted by uncomfortable shoes that are hard to walk in. These shoes are also great once you get the job (yay...you!) to look chic at the office but also be able to move around and efficiently complete your work tasks.
** A large purse to carry your organizer, wallet, keys, commuter card, hand sanitizer (and everything else that accumulates throughout the day) is a necessity!
** I just got my first "grown up" wallet and it has made such a difference. Gone are the days (well, most of the time) that I am searching for a loose credit card or my worn checks - everything is neat and tidy.
** Jewelry also makes me feel "grown up" - small, delicate pieces really take the interview outfit to the next level.

the monday morning blues - june gloom

June is in full swing and while there has been some really hot days, there has also been some June gloom (especially in the Monterey area). Today's installment of "the monday morning blues" features these gorgeous tailored blue pants and this edgy purse with pops of blue. This outfit would make a smooth/easy transition from daytime (at the office) to nighttime (martinis with the girls) with an easy shoe change and addition of some accessories and sweeps of makeup (mascara, liner and lipstick)...

The Outfit: flats, tailored pants, striped shirt, jacket, watch, bag
Make it Nighttime: heels, lipstick, eye liner, mascara, earrings

the beach

With summer in full swing, we have been spending a lot of time at the beach.

Below are some essentials for some fun under the sun...

To Shield (Sunscreen and Lip Balm)
To Enjoy (Ipod Shuffle, Book, Magazine)
To Quench (Water)
To Paint (Nailpolish)
To Dry (Personalized Towel)
To Restore (Aloe Vera and Lotion)

...as well as a day to night outfit option. We always like to walk into town and have a meal after spending the day at the beach (get a glass of wine and watch the sun set) but don't want to show up to the restaurant all sandy. This easy outfit change allows you to freshen up without have to bring a suitcase full of clothes. These jean shorts are beachy, casual and comfortable but can easily become glamorous with the right shoes and accessories.
