The Longest First Day

... of the working new year.  We wanted to catch some natural light today, but end-of-the-month/first-of-the-month lawyer type responsibilities got in the way.  So we worked past sunset, then snuck in a couple of shots by the grand stairwell of the office which, architecturally-speaking, is worth showing off. 

Our office suffers from a bit of an identity crisis, afflicted with the usual "Am I 80's? 90's?" indecision of decor, last seen at Spago before the reno, but it does have some lovely Craftstman touches. 

Paloma is wearing...

H&M black and white striped tank top, H&M fuschia cardigan, J.Crew No. 2 double-serge wool pencil skirt in charcoal ("I would own this skirt in every color if I could"), black tights from Target, Nine West Rocha pumps in black ("From 6pm.com, my secret sale shoe shopping site!!")

Accessories: Her fave sea green pendant with gold chain from Melrose Trading Post, two summers ago






Karen is wearing...

Target Merona green blouse (FW12), Bebe fitted pencil skirt ("I wear this at least once a week, have worn it to death, and in a stretchy medium size, slimming and forgiving all at the same time"), Sole Society Chandra closed toe pump

Accessories: none (bad/lazy girl today)

Other evidence of running late is the messy high bun and defaulting to the leopard print shoes as a neutral with some extra detail.  Can't say enough about these shoes, Sole Society is our new guilty pleasure and we may well be on our way to becoming minor shareholders.  (Except for Paloma, of course, if her husband is reading this.)

Pretty sure that this is becoming one long ad for J.Crew and/or Target.
