I have a job
I accepted an offer. I will be working for HP - more specifically I will be an ITO Svc Delivery Consultant IV in the the Outsourcing Services Global Delivery Department in the Technology Solutions Group Organization. I will actually be working at Weyeraeuser for HP. Basically I will be doing needs analysis for the Weyerhaeuser and then setting up training courses for them and the HP staff. It won't involve a lot of actual training and courseware development, mostly project management. I am scheduled to start around Aug 27th - depending on paperwork.
I went shopping yesterday and today trying to find work clothes since I only own one suit and a lot of casual clothes - I have nothing business casual! I have decided that I HATE shopping. I spent 4 hours yesterday and 2 today and I don't even have one complete outfit yet. Everything in the stores is 60's throwback right now and I hate it. Babydoll shirts and wild patterned everything. I feel like I am in an Austin Powers movie. I saw a girl today in a nylon psychedelic pattern dress in neon orange and green with furry green Ugg flip flops. Not my style.

Congratulations Robin!
I agree w/ your comments on style these days. And the pregnant look.. those tops are so 70's. I remember making "tent" tops and shorts w/ wild colors and stripes.... oooo
Suggestion..go to Ross. They are likely to have some of last years fashions and good deals to boot..
Love, mom
That's funny - I went to Ross yesterday and found a lot of great stuff!
God bless Ross.
Robin, earlier in the season I was in the same state of fashion disgust as you...I am notoriously cheap when shopping, but I was so desperate that I started hitting Macy's and Dillard's in hopes of finding something that didn't look like like a scene from an Austin Powers movie...no luck. I was seriously ready to invest in a sewing maching and start dismantling some of my favorite clothes to make them into patterns so I could just make my own and be done with it...and then I went shopping at Ross with Mom. Ahh, sweet cheapness. And I don't have to look like I've been pregnant for even longer than I have! :D

PS--Congratulations on the new position! Hope it's awesome for you.
