soooo sorry

Oh my gosh guys I am so sorry I haven`t been blogging! I`ve been so busy with my new job at Holts that I`ve been too tired (I know its no excuse). These pictures were taking a while ago and I`ve recently had a haircut so it doesn`t look like this anymore! My hair dresser was able to cut off 3 inches!!!! I couldn`t believe it had grown that much since February. But don`t worry you will see soon :)

Notice the magenta name tag? Oh yes, that's right, I am an official employee of Holt Renfrew!! I got my employee card yesterday and I've already bought myself some Tiffany's hehe. The new job is great and I'm hoping it goes really well so I can afford my new car ;) I had to go shopping today for "work clothes" and I absolutely love that I have that excuse. I had today off but I have to work again tomorrow so I will be wearing some of my new purchases. I'm hoping it isn't as hot tomorrow as it was today (32 degrees Celsius). I will die in my dress clothes!! Have a good evening folks :)

Sorry about the brief post, but I am very tired and must go to bed for work tomorrow (well today now I suppose)!! I had my first day at Holt Renfrew Thursday and so far I love it. Everyone is really nice and kind, which I wasn`t expecting to be honest. This is what I wore Friday and I think it worked really well together. I really am loving the cigarette/Audrey Hepburn pant that`s in right now. So yes that is all for now :) enjoy the sun this weekend Vancouverites!!

I don't know about you guys, but for me there is nothing better than putting on a pair of high waisted shorts in the summertime. These lovely shorts only cost me 20$ at H&M and I'd say it was totally worth it because they are so WEARABLE. They can go with lots of different colored shirts, and maybe even mixed with a pattern if you're daring enough. I was feeling laid back when I put this outfit on, so I glammed it up with my new glitter Toms! Let me know what you think, I enjoy your feedback :)

As I mentioned in my last post, I had an interview with Holt Renfrew on Saturday and they offered me the job!!!!!!!!! I will be a sales associate in the jewelry department at the Vancouver location so don't forget to come visit me ;). I'm really happy because I'm so freshly graduated and I already found my dream job! I've wanted to work at Holts for a really long time so achieving this is a dream come true. Now moving on to the outfit. As I'm sure you've noticed, I have a very clean, classic style. This probably comes from the fact that Audrey Hepburn has been my inspiration foreeeeeever. Nonetheless, when you go for an interview you should dress the way the store dresses. Let's say you have an interview at H&M, so your clothing better be colorful and very trendy. Because my interview was at Holts, I went for something conservative and classy (and I think I looked damn awesome!!) and maybe that's why they offered me the job on the spot!! Hope you guys had a good weekend and talk to you soon!

The weather here in Vancouver has been sadly deceiving these past few days. I haven't had to bundle up in a blazer in at least a month, and it didn't feel good doing it, believe me. On a higher note, I had an interview with Holt Renfrew yesterday and they offered me the job on the spot!! I am quite the happy girl. Tune in on tomorrow for tips on what to wear to an interview!! Thanks for all your support. Don't forget to follow me on instagram: @pinkandpolished :)

I feel like my goal as a fashionista is to put pieces together that normal people wouldn't. I like to mix girly pieces with not so girly pieces. It gives me a more edgier look that I feel is necessary to brand myself. Don't get me wrong, I love my feminine outfits, but there is something about a "bad ass" feel that I love. Maybe I'm just crazy. Have a good weekend people!!
