I just quit my job (+ I couldn’t be happier)

Isn’t my mom beautiful? and stylish!

I’m excited to share that I have accepted a Digital Marketing position and I start this Thursday! I put my two weeks in at Gap this past Friday 🙂 I really liked the people I worked with at Gap, but working retail was beginning to suck my soul (similar to the Dementor’s Kiss in Harry Potter). Overdramatic, maybe, but I have never come to the point where I’ve dreaded a job so much. Turns out that the typical college positions of retail + serving are not for me. I’m saying goodbye to working weekends, late night inventory and endlessly folding baby jeans. FINALLY!

Accepting this position is a pivotal point for me. Currently it is only a part time internship, because I still have 7 weeks of school until graduation, but it holds the potential to turn into something full time. Scary but so awesome! Lets hope I can prove myself in the next two months.

Anyways, thats all the excitement for now. My mom came to visit about 1.5 weeks ago, and this was the outfit I wore out to explore Art Prize on Wednesday night. I had to include a picture of her because she’s just the best + has great style! This quilted bomber from Gap (now on sale!) is surprisingly warm, so it kept me toasty as we walked around in the dark. This black Old Navy blouse is great because it is lightweight! I would highly recommend it if you like to layer in the winter.
Hope you all have a great start to your week!

Tell me, have you ever quit your job?

PS. this is my “new” hair – I cut 6+ inches off a few weeks ago. I really hated it at first, but after the initial two weeks I’m feeling much better
