I am so thankful to have Jennine take my outfit shots-they are few and far between but when I get them done (usually the days I work for IFB), I think it’s worth the wait. (YES, it was that cold that I worn FUR in the summertime. Hey, it’s San Francisco.)

My “work weeks” have been usually insane. Normally, I keep myself super organized, everything gets written down, checked off, replenished, etc. However, I’ve come home to a messy apartment, missed important appointments, forget to follow up with people- I feel like a mess. So, I’m going home today to be with my family and relax.
I attended a wonderful event in San Francisco the other day, thanks to Christina for lending me her ticket and also to Meghan for hosting such a great mixer.

Networking Tips
- Be prepared with your business cards with correct/updated info
- Breathe and relax!
- Work the room-smile, appear approachable and be willing to introduce yourself
- Yuri did something great at the event-She had great questions to ask one another which sparked great conversation. So come prepared to ask some fun questions you’d genuinely like answered
- Always be yourself. People know when you’re faking even when they don’t know you
- Have fun and remember, don’t take yourself seriously!

This was quite the candid moment, but THAT FACE is exactly how I’ve been feeling as of late; flared nostrils and all.
