Ok, there's one thing I'm not looking forward to at Target. Attire is business professional. When I first got the offer, the HR guy very excitedly told me "and we get to wear jeans of friday!" I didn't think it'd be a good idea to tell him that when I have to be up before 9am my wardrobe consists of whatever is on the floor. And clothes on the floor usually smell like last night's bar. I don't have a washer/dryer in my building, so that means clothes that aren't "dirty", but might smell funky get a spray of febreeze when I have the time, or just a breeze of Chicago wind when I don't.

At least I'm creative. I attribute most of my fashion sense to my mother's "Make It With Mademoiselle". I pilfered this book at about age 12 (and it also is the caused my knitting fetish). This book has everything from how to decorate your whole house with sheets, to bikini from three handkercheifs, and of course more ways than you could imagine to tie a sarong. Hopefully I can use this inspiration and find more ways to turn my drab work clothes to night out fab.
