That thing called work

The day before yesterday I got a job interview for later in the month. As much as I like to spend my days lolling around thinking about blogs and writing poems, I'm eager to get back into a job. I like to keep myself busy and enjoy new challenges. Going back to work also means being able to wear career clothes. So while I haven't yet secured a new job, I certainly have been on the hunt for things to wear once there. Here's an outfit I'd wear to work in a second if I had a job and money. Note the coat and warm pants, because yes folks, the jobs I've been looking at are back east.

Outfit consists of:

Blue polyamide bow neck blouse by Marlene Birger. Available at net-a-porter for $225.

Black patent leather heels by Report Signature. Available at Revolve Clothing for $187.
