Hey everyone!  Here's a look at what I wore to work from the past two weeks.
The weekend before last T & I took a 3-day weekend to celebrate my cousin's wedding in Pemberton.  It was beautiful!  We spent Sunday night in Whistler and saw the supermoon lunar eclipse rising above Whistler mountain in the clear night sky; it was pretty amazing!  Anyways, I only had two outfit pics from the week before and no time to blog so I decided to roll them up with last week's pics for one big final September-outfit blog post.  Whew!

I purchased these booties from Steve Madden online, on sale, and am so happy I did!  (Unfortunately they are sold out now!)  I was worried that they maybe were too trendy slash that I wouldn't be able to wear them this fall and by next Spring I wouldn't be into them anymore.  BUT so far I love them and even though they are heels I actually wear them.  The heel height is a very manageable 2.5 inches which I think is my perfect height.

The crop top/high-waisted skirt combo is slightly out of my comfort zone, but it's really hard to find tops to wear with this skirt, so I decided to just go for it!  All the girls at work really liked the outfit, so I think my chance paid off!  Also, I have to tell you, one of the reasons I don't wear a lot of pencil or bodycon skirts is because my stomach is my "problem area".  You know that body part that for some reason you are just never happy with and are always fixated on?  My tummy is that for me, I always feel like it's sticking out!  So, I got myself a pair of Spanx so I can rock all those skirts with confidence and not have them go to waste just hanging in my closet!
