weekend.

means:


i am literally obsessed with Game of Thrones at the moment.
reading Book Three in anticipation for the Season 3 premiere on March 31st
so amazing.

and these Old Navy anchor print khakis are adorable (& induce compliments from strangers at Target - always a good sign) and comfortable.

what's your weekend looking like?

some news + bold printed pants

I'm sort of a voracious reader about news regarding companies I love, particularly in terms of how well they're doing financially - my inner finance major at work - and I was surprised (& sort of delighted) to see that Gap Inc., the parent company to Gap, Banana Republic, Old Navy, Piperlime, and Athleta recently bought Intermix! Intermix is a collection of boutiques which carry a variety of luxury designer brands - Herve Leger, Fendi, Proenza Schouler, etc. I'm really curious to see how this new partnership will turn out.  You can read more about the purchase here and here.  

Other news: 
  • School is in full swing which means you'll be seing less of me here on the blog.  I will absolutely try to update when I can but the main focus is doing well in my classes, securing an internship, and learning more about what I want to do with the rest of my life.  
  • I'm on the hunt for a full suit.  I have plenty of blazers, dress pants, and tops but none that are a complete match.  I think it's time to find a big girl suit.  I'm think either navy or charcoal? Ideas?
  • I've been also looking into some funky/cool/printed pants lately, here are some of my faves:

The top 3 are all from Banana Republic, my personal favorite is the grey hued floral printed pair. The bottom right is gap and the left is j.crew.  

whats your favorite?
