Work Style in Progress

Recently my work has changed its dress code, they want us to dress more professionally. I am struggling with this as I don’t fit into any of my old professional clothes, my style has also changed drastically since I was last expected to dress in Office casual and I while I understand dressing professional is expected I don't want to go completely boring!! 

So I decided to take my frustration to polyvore! Here is what I came up with. I don't actually own any of the items but it was more a creative exercise to see if I could find things I could see myself wearing!  So these are outfits I wish I could A) afford! B) Pull Off and C) Am fairly certain I could wear to work... with a little tweaking!

Cowl Me: 

Work Look #1 by Miss Addict featuring Monsoon shoes

I love blazers and if I had my way would own one in every colour of the rainbow and in multiple styles (cropped, “boyfriend etc etc) but alas I own few! This look is simple with basic pencil shirt and blazer with a lovely cowl necked t-shirt. 

I made it funkier with some patterned tights and the acessories (the earrings has one tiny pair of glasses which appeals no end to the optical geek in me!) Pearls to add some class (because whats classier than pearls) I want to integrate my work and play wardrobes (to expensive to maintain two separate ones!) An option I could probably actually wear to work (albeit cheaper options) barring the tights in that particular pattern as tiny bows aren’t professional enough for work. Perhaps micro fishnets instead.... *ponders*

“Totally Like Whatever, You Know” Poem by Taylor Mali Typography Video by Ronnie Bruce. 

I discovered this wonderful typography video done to the words of a brilliant poem by Taylor Mali. I was rewatching this on the weekend and was planning on including it in Link Love and this just cinched it! I love Mr Mali and the typography just beautifully illustrates it! I hate when people say “Totally” “Like” “Whatever” and “You Know” in conversation! Drives me batty! Also  watch What Teachers Make (My Mum is a Teachers and when she watched this she practically leapt off the couch dancing) and “I will fight you for the library” Always guaranteed to have me in stiches! 

Wall-E Computer! Via Epic Win: 

My sister linked me this via msn (from the lounge room) just so she could hear me go “awwwww” so clickie for the adorableness that is Wall-e! 

1000 Awesome Things Blog 

So many things on this list are indeed awesome! While not everything on the list may be my idea of awesome it might be yours! My Personal Favorites are #654 Peeling that thin plastic film off new electronics, #834 Building an amazing couch cushion fort, #935 Eating cookies like Cookie Monster,

or #548 The moment in the shower where you decide to make it a really long shower.

Uses of “click here if your browser doesn’t automatically redirect you” via Graph Jam

I love Graph Jam. When I was trapped in a cubicle it was one of the things I looked forward to reading on my lunch break everyday! This graph is also very very true!

The Colourful World of Designer Vinyl Customs via Colour Lovers

Munnies (Vinyl Customizable Dolls) I love the way that people customize and bring their own personal style this medium particularly the shapes and vibrant colours. I have been coming across these fellas for quite some time and this post at colour has some plastic goodness! 

When to Protect your contacts via IFB 

This is not something that is an issue for me being a tiny blogger, not really a fashion blogger and not even getting soliciting emails! but I can imagine bigger bloggers who are more fashion focused than I get it a lot! an interesting read and a good take on how companies like to use bloggers to gain access to a network of contacts that didn’t used to exist! 

What about you? What Links are you loving this week? Whats making you awwww or laughing? Link Me in the Comments and I might just add it in Link Love #10!
