I don’t know if you can tell, but I am the anti-suit girl.  I hate wearing them on interviews but I also know it is to be expected.  I have preached to my fellow classmates your clothing is part f your brand, so what does it say about you.  Some of them don’t want to deal with it, and others request I go shopping with them.

Conference time is coming up for MBA students and mine begins with NBMBAA Conference in L.A. beginning Sept. 21.  What does a girl wear while she is trying to introduce herself to L’Oreal, Sony, Google, and Intel.  I don’t know yet, but it won’t be a suit.  So far I understand conferences are all business daytime, but over-the-top  fun night time.

I am inspired by this J. Mendel skirt on RueLaLA for $299

J. Mendel $299

I am thinking a pirate shirt and color shirt for evening.  I went to netaporter.com and check what they got.

3 facts about me:

1. I am a grad student (not buying a plane tomorrow, prices need to be reasonable but I still know what I like.)

2. This fall will be the second time in my adult life where I actually need clothing for fall, and not switch the shorts with flip flops to jeans with flip flops.

3. Before this year you would never catch me in anything red.  I hated how the color looked on me.  Now I can’t wait to embrace it for fall.

With that in mind, I went to three different websites (http://www.bluefly.com/, http://www.net-a-porter.com, and ebay.com) to find the best looks in red.

I spent the last three days in the fabulous Marth’s Vineyard.  My days and nights were filled up on a boat, in the sand, walking the island, and dancing in the clubs.  Needless to say, I needed sunscreen the whole weekend.  I slapped on my Neutrogena UltraSheer Liquid Sunblock and discovered how much lighter the sunblock felt.  It was never heavy on my skin.

The lightness of the sunblock was unfamiliar to my brain so I found myself constantly applying more sunblock because I couldn’t tell if I was fully covered.  I allowd my friends to put some on too, and they also enjoyed the lightness of the liquid.

I never felt like the sunblock was sticky to my skin, and the sea water did not eat away at the liquid.

I walked away from Martha’s Vineyard with a slight tan, and healthy skin.

Overall, I would say it is a good product, but the lightness of the liquid takes some getting use to.
