Celebrate

August 18 5


So, yesterday I got the news that I got offered the fall internship I wanted really badly! I'm so excited to start working with them once the semester starts. To celebrate Zak took me out to dinner (though I may have asked him to...) to one of our favorite restaurants, Underhills Crossing. The food was delicious, though I have no pictures since it was all devoured rather quickly. All in all, a very nice evening. Unfortunately, I had absolutely no clue what to wear. It was one of those days where I just hated my closet and nothing looked right. So, I wasn't thrilled with this outfit. I'm not sure the dress is at all flattering. But who cares? It has owls on it, and I have an internship. Hoorah!

Dress: Modcloth, Boots: Delia's, Thoreau Pin: Berkeley Book Store

    Ah, congratulations on the internship! How exciting! I'm looking forward to hearing more about it. :)

    And I may have actually exclaimed "Owls!" out loud when I loaded your blog. (Because that's not lame or anything...) I put very little stock in whether clothes are "flattering" (that word could mean just about anything anyway), instead purchasing based on what makes me happy. Little owls are definitely smile-inducing, so I'd call this outfit a success.

    Congrats! So glad you got the internship you wanted! Very cute dress. Sometimes the outfits you're most unsure about are the best. You just have to step outside your comfort zone!
