Casual Fridays- Wednesday Edition

Since I've missed the past few Fridays, and one of our CF girls will be out this Friday, we're doing a Wednesday edition!

Home Sweet Home...Apartment?

Here's a quick little (poor quality) photo tour of my new digs.

Welcome to the living room. Here is where you can watch my small, non-HDTV television that has RCN basic cable. This is the Charles Shaw of living rooms- cheap, easy, and when you don't think about it too much, it's actually pretty great.

Next we'll move into the bathroom. I didn't take a picture of the inside of the shower, but it was built for midgets. The showerhead reaches my chin, so I have to pull some serious yoga moves to wash my hair. It got me a monthly discount on rent, though, so it's all good. I would say this is the Busch Lite of bathrooms- not perfect, but with enough effort, it gets the job done. Oh, and p.s. the bathroom is tiled pink...score!

KATE SPADE

Kate Spade is having an amazing Sample Sale- up to 75% off! All you have to do is enter your first name, email, and zip code. Best part? ALL shipping is $5! I'm definitely going to have to treat myself to a new summer clutch!   SALE SALE SALE

What I should be saving for is a new laptop, since I currently have to use a usb-connected keyboard because my "x" key is broken and makes my typing seem like it's coming from some type of porn star. Dealspl.us has some great electronic coupon codes, but I think this Kate Spade sale is going to trump any laptop purchases. 

Mimz Tuesdays

Since Casual Fridays has actually become a hit at the office, I decided to extend my creativity (and office down-time) to create a weekly blog entry that will feature the one and only Lindsey "Mimz" Tremaine. Her fashion sense has always been out of this world, and every Tuesday we'll be featuring a new, modern, completely trendy and inspired office outfit! Our office fits under "casual", but often we take it one step further and just really go all out with what we like to call the "super casual/borderline shabby" look. It's totally new for 2010, and since I don't have anyone who actually reads this, I know we won't be influencing any real fashion trends. See you next Tuesday for part 2!

 

 

This is a transformation of the traditional "tank and jeans" look, making it incredibly appropriate for an office setting. Instead of wearing the cardigan as an actual cover-up, Mimz just twisted it and tied it around her stomach, eliminating any slimming qualities and keeping her self-tied straps in the back visible. The comb-over gives Mimz a professional look that still says "I treat every Tuesday like a Saturday night".
