Today was a big day for me. My resignation was being made public at work. I knew after 5.5 years it was going to feel weird and also very sad to make it so final/so real with this announcement. So, I figured I should dress for the business.
Last week, while shopping for J’s birthday, I found this cute little tee.I love the idea of wearing a tie. So, I bought myself a present too. (don’t worry J did get something too). Then on Saturday, when J insisted we head to Uniqlo, I found some nice woolen tights that will become my new go-to. I bought 3 pairs – black, gray and burgundy. Watch this space, I’m sure they’ll be worn many times.
So, what do you think? Was it an apt outfit for my resignation announcement?

How come I lost track
Of this blog??
You’ve been a bit busy these last few years. It’s allowed.
Where are you going? What did you resign towards?!
(Love the tie!)
Daphne, I actually resigned before I decided where I was going. That being said, I now know my next steps and the toque is the give away. See above for details.
