So apparently my interview outfit karma is awesome, because I found out on Friday afternoon (barely 24 hours after my interview) that...
I got the job!!!!
And seriously, it's not just a job, it's the job for me. It's the job I've been wanting ever since I got out of school, that I've essentially been looking for for the past year and a half. I honestly can't say enough good things about it. The pay is better, my colleagues are awesome (I know most of them already from previous stuff, so I know that the dynamic will be good), and it's the kind of job that I will come home from feeling satisfied, like I've done something good. I'm so thrilled to start this new step in my career, my life.*
I just loved today's outfit, too. This skirt is one of my favorites and I just don't wear it enough. It's the perfect flattering shape, and I love the length. It sits comfortably above the knees, but not so short that it's inappropriate for work. I like the way I remixed this one, too. The first version packed a little more punch with the bright red of the shirt, so I toned it down with this maroon sweater. Joe and I got all gussied up last night and went to the Joffrey ballet performance of the Nutcracker after work. We had a delightful time, and I'll be posting about it in a separate post later this weekend.
*Many of you have asked me what I do. I'm sorry to be so continuously vague, but it's important to me to keep some level of distance between my blog life and my work life. This is my outlet, and if I had too much overlap it might stop feeling that way. So I'm sorry to do this, but I'm keepin' it vague. Just know that this job is perfect, and perfectly suited to me, in every way.
