I love combining evening wear elements into my daily looks – like a touch of sequins for example. Grad student lifestyle can be a bit of a downer so throwing in a little sparkle, sparkle is always a good thing. But I keep it profesh with a blazer. I’m very professional you guys, for reals.
In unrelated news, tomorrow I will be attending a Connecticut bloggers meet up right here in good old New Haven. After a chance to pose for some glam shots at various locations around the Yale campus we’ll be heading to the always amazing restaurant Barcelona for tapas and wine. Color me excited! If you’re a Connecticut or surrounding state blogger and want to stage a meet up, shoot me an email or leave a comment with your contact info.
Don’t forget to like me on Facebook, follow me on Twitter, and subscribe to my YouTube channel!

YAY for sequins!!! eventhough you are wearing all black but sequins makes it more dressier (I dont think this is a word but who cares).

Very professional indeed!!! love that blanket by the way, need to get one for my dog... guess what, speaking of dogs, thought about you the other day, as I took my dog to the vet for a check up, and she was selling some pet accessories...had to seriously restrain myself from buying a LEOPARD PRINT collar and leash aggggghhh could have died it was so cute! would have looked soooo good on my dog... don't know why I didn't just buy it...oh I know, my boyfriend would have killed me, not only does he hate the print but if he sees me making "our baby" wear it, that would have to be the end of our relationship ;)
wooo hooo to meet up!!! - WHY in the world did i think u were from Europe?!!? - crazy me!
Totally agree, sometimes a little sparkle during the day is just what you need!
You look classy, fun and profesh at the same sweet time! Blogger meets are the bestest! Too bad Paris is too far...

I love the touch of sequins and that purse is fab! Awww orange kitty! Blogger meet ups are so much fun- have a great time and make sure to take lots of pics so we can feel like we were there!
Great outfit! I love the touches of sparkles and the idea of wearing a blazer to tone it down. Your cat is super adorable! My cat looks similar!
I don't care if it's day or night, I think sequins rock!
The blogger meetup sounds fun. I think we're going to have one here in MN over the summer--super excited! Hmmm tapas sounds good right about now.

Sequins are correct at any time of day. Wouldn't it be great to have a sequinned bathrobe! xx

Your cat is cute I never tire of seeing cute animals! Your look is professional, you should see some of the crazy things I have worn to give lectures in the undergrads never bother but when I teach mature students they eye me as if they want to see some ID and qualifications ;-)
I am fully behind daytime sparkle! Well...sparkle any time really!
sequined top under a blazer looks nice with a colored scarf!

Oh you look gorgeous as usual, and yes, VERY professional looking! Loving the sequins, and a blazer keeps it classy! Your blogger meet up sounds like so much fun, if only there were more bloggers in Singapore! I'm in LA at the moment and loving it, I'll be heading to Westport, CT, in a week!
