Why Hello There...I'm a Semi-Successful Academic
I recently finished writing the fourth chapter of my dissertation but so far my adviser has only read the first and second ones and last week I met with him to discuss his editorial suggestions for those chapters...and, fantastically, he loved both of them and only suggested a few minor things (essentially, though, my actual arguments and use of archival work is all on the level)! So now it's onwards and upwards for this gal. And nothing makes me feel triumphant like a dash of leopard print -- I also kind of feel like this is a very appropriate "I'm working on my dissertation, I'm a very stylish academic" look...maybe that's just me though.

Congrats! I'm still loving those boots. And the leopard print!
Great news on the feedback front! I love the leopard print mixing!
I Love this look ! It says I am Smart and Confident.
Well done on the positive feedback, you definitely deserve some leopard print! Having a little peek at your bookshelves and spying Cranmer/Elizabeth I, I'd love to know what your dissertation is on? xx

love the leopard skirt! lol for the academics and the books in the back, I think this is appropirate!
That's such great news! Way to go. I'm still trekking through my topic for my Masters thesis... uch. I can't narrow it down and it's driving me nuts! Haha.
Love the leopard... leopard always makes me happy.
Congrats on being a semi-successful academic. You certainly look smart and stylish in that skirt.
Oh, I empathize with the process you're going through. I wrote my senior thesis in college, and just remember it being never-ending and grueling, and a senior thesis is half as serious as a real grad dissertation. Keep your head up and keep writing!! On the clothes front, I love the leopard. Confession, the only leopard print item I own is an umbrella. I just never think it looks right one me when I try it on!
congrats on the writing!! i think you should continue on wearing this skirt. i also think it may or may not be magic.
xo,

Congratulations, Courtney! Man, personally I measure success in grad school on whether or not I've gotten kicked out, which means I high-five myself every day (SO FAR). This is way more awesome, though.
Very stylish academic indeed, you go diss the eff out of that er, tation.
That is so great that your adviser likes he has read! That is always such a good feeling.
I love your mix of snow and "regular" leopard print. It looks really neat!!
I love your celebratory look! That's awesome you're doing great on your dissertation, I've not experienced one but am sure it isn't exactly easy. The scarf was the perfect touch!
that is fantastic!!!! hopefully the rest of the process goes smoothly and you'll be done soon!!!! :D
agreed - leopard is a confident, sexy way to celebrate!
Love the leopard prints!
xx.

Your cheetah skirt is adorable and I love how you used two types of cheetah in your outfit. It's adorable!!!

xoxo
Ahh I LOVE the animal prints! Looks gorgeous on you! I want a scarf like that :)
Very academic...love the glasses and the scarf particularly.
And congratulations on finishing that chapter :)
courtney, your accomplishments make me feel like i should be pushing myself harder.. -_- I DETEST revising. And that's where I'm digging my hole at the mo. Oh well, I'll get over it! Your look is fab-- very "can't you see I'm writing my dissertation here, so give me a large cup of coffee" look indeed. :)
onward and upward, indeed. congrats on your progress. and lovely leopard print scarf.
