This week marks the start of school for many students and teachers. And though most of us aren't "going back-to-school" per se, what better time to refresh some of our office must-haves? Whether it's a new set of pens (these are my #1) or a new power blazer (I also own this in three colors), there's something for everyone on this list. ...

Not to cause panic for all my teacher friends out there (I love you!), but I have received quite a few emails from readers wanting to see BTS outfit suggestions, my classroom photos and my favorite planners for the new school year. ...
Back To School Guide for Under $100
Well, the first week of school is officially here and it's just as bittersweet as I imagined. After talking to my fellow teacher friends last night, it was fun to reminisce on the past 6 years (see my classroom here, here and here), share crazy stories, and laugh about good times. I am just reminded of how amazing all of you teachers are. I wish all of you the best of luck with your new classroom and a wonderful start of the year!
I have received many emails regarding back to school fashion, from both teachers and students. I wanted to share with you some of my favorite looks for back to school, keeping in mind that they can be for both teacher or student. Almost every item is under $100. These are great because they can be mixed and matched with things you probably already own. Plus they make great transition pieces for Fall.
My personal favorite is this striped dress. It's so soft and perfect for work. I plan to wear this with an oversized cardigan (like this or this) and a pair of booties similar to

Back To School Shopping
Hi everyone! I'm sure some of you of getting ready for back to school, and some of you are thinking "thank goodness I'm done with that!". Either way- we can always use some new clothes. These are a few items that particularly stood out to me as casual basics for fall. The scarf is a little bright, but I loved the colors with the navy and tan accents.

Back to the Basics
If there's one thing I look for in my everyday outfits, it's simplicity. There's something so refreshing about a crisp white blouse, a great fitting pair of jeans, and some strappy heels. While I like to play up simple pieces with fun jewelry or a bold clutch, I also like to stick with the core items that get me from season to season.
If you follow along, you probably already know how much I love the brand Equipment. They make the best silk tops on the market...period. When I first saw an Equipment blouse, I was a little shocked by the price tag. (I know, it's silk, but still) I tried to find similar pieces but nothing really compared to the fit, style and over all look that Equipment has.
I finally broke down and bought a blouse last spring, and loved it. I got the Nude Signature Silk Blouse and was thrilled that it wasn't sheer, and was just the right amount of "relaxed" (if you are have a more petite frame, the Signature Slim Blouse would be a good fit for you). Since then, I have splurged on two more, black and you guessed it, ...
