professional style

being on the big search for a job, means that i think a lot about two things: 
1. all the bills i'll get to pay with my paycheck {woohoo!}.
2. all the cute professional clothes i'll need to buy.

when i worked at my desk job, the one thing i really looked forward to was dressing up in professional, business-woman attire {well, okay, that and the awesome view from our downtown san francisco office}.  i loved having that daily excuse to look classy.  now that i'm a therapist, i have to be careful.  sure, i want to look professional, but i also want my overall appearance to be warm and inviting, not too harsh or businessy.  unfortunately, after 3 years working at a lawfirm, plus a couple more years of being a grad student, i don't have many clothes that fit this category.  so as part of my preparation for that future job of mine {and part of my attempt to kill time in a job-related manner} i have been looking for affordable therapist garb.
what have i found?


these are of course all from my favorite shop ruche, which has the warmest clothes {emotionally speaking}, all for very affordable prices {they also often have some of the same stuff as modcloth, only $10 cheaper. truth!}.  this week i have been feeling extra inspired with my job hunt.  hopefully soon i'll get to stop daydreaming and go shopping for some therapist clothes in real life! 

do you get to dress up for work?
do you have a favorite shop for your professional wardrobe?

.408 CheyTac Fredo Viola Aug 29, 10:51 AM This is a real bummer to me. I pride myself on making as little an impact on the environment as I can, but make my living using computers to make music... and I use all Apple products... so I'm feeling really guilty about this right now. 408 CheyTac final.jpg appleguy123 Apr 22, 10:32 PM Because it is the third longest example of drift on PRSI (for now) and since appleguy123 started that one, of course he wants it to continue. Caught! :D Knowing how the PRSI works one naive bump could help me achieve the record. Maadi-Griffin 50BMG Pistol Draythor Apr 13, 04:33 PM GGJstudios Thanks, man. I connect to other drives so rarely that I have never bothered to look this up myself. OT: Does anyone one know why Apple hasn't got this built in? Licensing rights? quot;Is life so dear or peace so AlBDamned Aug 29, 11:14 AM zero evidence, other than my gut feeling. Then that's nothing but semi-diluted Apple fanboi-ism which is, in my op

Suddenly an unconscious Argentinean fell through my roof. He was quickly joined by a dwarf dressed as a nun.

No 211 - Moulin Rouge! Director - Baz Luhrmann I remember very vividly when I first saw this film. I was in sixth form when it came out, and was a student of 'Theatre Studies', so there was naturally a lot of talk about this overtly theatrical piece. However, I was not convinced that I would enjoy it, it looked overtly soppy, a chicks film. Finally I was convinced to go and see it (Tom Done, who was in the year above and who was utterly terrifying, though who is now a good friend, won me over by stating the line I have used as a title. Surely a film MUST be good if it features unconscious Argentinians and cross dressing dwarfs!). So one evening I went to the Regent cinema in Wantage ( now shut down ) with my best friends Hanna and Richard . The film completely blew me away, and is the only film that has managed to firmly grab my attention in the first second, as the curtains open and the conductor arrives to play the 20th Century Fox theme. It uses the production company's
