It was April of last year when I was only working for Publix and a family friend who was working at UM Hospital informed me that one of the doctor's office she was working in was looking to hire someone and I was eager to set up an interview. This was a private billing office for a psychiatrist at this hospital, a bit far from my home, but thought I would give it a shot, since I had worked for an orthopedic office dealing with insurance companies and authorizations. I had emailed the office manager and had set up the interview for a weekday I was off at about 10am, which was a mistake given the amount of traffic I encountered on the way there, took me about an hour to get there.

Pencil skirt from Goodwill, peplum top from Rainbow, booties from Sears and handbag from DD's Discount.

Multi-strand pearl necklace from Miss A, pearl earrings were a gift, Zales engagement ring and white watch was an Amazon gift from my then fiance.

Thevinterview went well and I was called to start a training day sooner than expected, since I already had my Publix schedule. I went on a Tuesday where I had to close with my shift starting at 5pm, so I had the morning and early afternoon available for the training. I put on some of the scrubs I had from the orthopedic job, but since it had been a while, they were tight. As before I had dropped way too much and was on my way to gaining a healthy weight back. It went pretty great and it is the job I continue to do now along with some added responsibilities, which is better for my resume when searching for this kind of employment in North Carolina when we move. The scrubs I buy are from DD's Discount, the pearl necklace from Miss A and earrings from Forever 21.

It was an all black look again for work with some "ice" added around my neck, hence the title for this blog post. I wore black skinny jeans from Walmart, peplum top was a gift, sandals from Rainbow and backpack from Payless.

Necklace came attached to a short bought at Rainbow, earrings were a gift from Colombia, ring was bought from my wholesaler, white watch and bracelet from mini in the box.

After work, since I had to wait a bit for the next bus, I looked around Macy's women since I always go through that store to go to the bus. I looked through the clearance dresses and found these two I liked to try on. I got size small since I've lost a lot of weight lately, the pink one didn't quite zip up in the boobs area since it was not a stretch dress, it fit in all other areas.

Then I tried on the other one, which did fit and zip up all the way and that's why I took it home with me. It was about $10 something with taxes, great price for this cute and simple dress, I just need to find the right occasion to wear it, since I'm working all the time and always wearing work clothes. Although this could be worn for work with black tights and a black cardigan.
