Friend Friday: No Shit, Sherlock.
Shirt - thrifted Jeans - Cheap Monday, thrifted Boots - Botb, ebay Bag - thrifted Notebook - Dollar Tree
So I'm six months into my career as an Office Coordinator. I'm in my element, challenged, but loving it. My office is lenient enough that I can wear my personal style, even if I do try to keep it business casual - no flip flops for this girl.
But I've also been struggling. Struggling with depression and anxiety, and the fatigue and illness that comes along with it. I've been quietly lurking in my friends posts, putting up a post here and there to show I'm not dead (yet).
I slogged home today, sad, tired, exhausted. But guys, I love Meghan. I love her.
Because even though she's gone on vacay and can't spend the weekend writing with me, she sent me a fantastic surprise! Maaaail.

Holy shit, Sherlock - it's hats!! She showed me this rainbow beanie she knitted, and sent it along for my mom (it's big!), but my mom's going to have a bit of competition in getting it. Because it makes me make that face.
But for me - It's an Ear hat, Watson! AN EAR HAT.
Plus loads of other Sherlockian goodies including cards, an eyeshadow palette, a BBC themed personally screen printed scarf, a Return to 221B Baker Street hand stamped necklace, a slytherin-tastic snake necklace, a button necklace and a lovely leather skull cameo.
BUT WAIT, THERE'S MORE!! Did you know Meghan makes most of her own clothes? Did you know she's recently reopened her etsy shop? Did you all also know I'm a total crack whore for free stuff? No?
Well, a recent job fair totally exposed that side of myself to my coworkers. I came out with everything from pens to sports bottles, sticky notes, and even stuffed Chick Fil A cows. (LOVE THE COWS), I even tried to win a hat or shirt from the Marines, but my wimpy gimpy arms couldn't hold me in a pull-up hang for longer than 13 seconds. But I tried! I like free shit.
But Meghan totally sent me TWO, COUNT THEM TWO, dresses hand made by her!
My favorite part is she got my bipolar style down to two distinct dresses. One, stripes with black and bold colors. The other plaid with bees, soft cotton, red and navy. Strong boldness and soft shabby chic.
I do apologize for the camera phone pictures (all of them!) and mirror pictures, but I needed photographic evidence immediately of this amazingness. Hopefully, very soon, you'll see these dresses styled to their full extent.
I'm still trying guys, that's all we can do in this world - try like hell.
