Just Add Glam

the San Francisco lifestyle blog by JENNIFER HENRY-NOVICH

October 21, 2012 / FASHION

Pearl Polish

Top: Dizzy Lizzy, similar here from Charlotte Russe // Sweater: Banana Republic // Skirt: Greylin // Bag: Louis Vuitton // Heels: Vince Camuto, similar here // Bracelet: JCrew, similar here // Earring: Nadri // Sunglasses: Dior (my favorite pair…) // Nails: Essie Sole Mate

My go-to ensemble for work is a corporate-savvy combination of a pencil skirt, sweater and perfect pumps. But sometimes its fun to add in special details to add a more sartorial touch.  I love the yellow hue of this skirt and felt it went so perfectly paired with the different colors of brown in my purse, tortoise shell heels, and my hair (hey, hair is an accessory!). Playing off of the feminine shape of the pencil skirt, I brought a special touch to my collarbone with a pearl dotted collar to turn up the sweetness factor just a bit.  Browns, yellow and a hint of pearl may just be my new favorite color combination!

      OMG Whitley, your comment is so sweet! I’m glad you enjoyed the post. My heart fluttered when I found that the yellow skirt went so well with the brown accessories so I’m glad you loved it too. Have a wonderful day!

      Jordan–I completely agree with you on pencil skirts and great heels. Pencil skirts may perhaps be my favorite type of clothing….ever?!?!

    Polished for sure! I really like the color of the skirt and have been thinking about this color myself. The bag of course is classic fab and this is a great look for work! The details of the pearl collar finish it off. Lovely 🙂

Finally tried @dintaifungusa and wow! So good! Her Finally tried @dintaifungusa and wow! So good! Here’s what we ordered:

🌟Cucumber Salad - a bright and light starter I’d love to make these at home (and @glucosegoddess would be proud!)
🌟String Beans with Garlic - I would have eaten 3 more orders of this had they not been $16/each. I’ve already been searching for copy cat recipes because they are just SO DAMN GOOD
🌟Kurobuta Pork Xiao Long Bao - these are their classic soup dumpling and very yummy and chewy and I loved the soy-vinegar sauce pairing with it
🌟 Sticky Rice & Kurobuta Pork Shao Mai - these were recommended in a TikTok video but they weren’t my favorite. The rice plus the dough was just too much IMO
🌟 Chicken Spicy Wontons - these were very good! I would drink the bowl of sauce if no one was watching…
🌟 Chocolate & Mochi Xiao Long Bao - wow, what a great to end the meal! We don’t order dessert often but this really good. Love the melty creamy chocolate!

Can’t wait to go back! Have you been? You’ve got to try it!
I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board tog I waited to share putting my 2023 vision board together until late January because there it’s so much buzz around the new year and goal setting around the start of the new year…but how about waiting until the buzz around it starts to fade? I’ve been committed since 12/31/2022 but if you need some fresh inspiration for 2023…here you go!

Last year I made a digital vision board in Canva with about 8 vague photos and I never looked at it. This year, I got a huge poster board and nearly 100 very specific images of the things I want. VERY specific. In the short 3 weeks having this propped up in my office and seeing it each day, I’m already seeing the needle moving on these items! 

Have you created a vision board or set goals for 2023? What doe is mean to you? How are you achieving your goals this year? #goalsetting #visionboard
