22 Feb 2012
I used this side table for two weeks while I waited for my new desk to arrive. Big girl, small table, two weeks. The others in my office are still getting a laugh out of it.

This is what I wear to work most days - skinny jeans (these are my new skinnies from Height Goddess - love!), silk tops, and embellished flats.  I'm lucky to be able to dress casually. But...next week is a different story. I'm flying to SLC to meet all my new colleagues, and I want to do it up a bit. I'm over the black pants and dress shirt combo that used to be my fall-back. I wanted to style professional outfits with a dash of personality. What do you wear on business?  Do you have a go-to style, or favorite store that sells tall professional clothes?

"These are my people!"    I'm pretty sure I said that out loud while walking into the Long Tall Sally pop-up shop last weekend.  I really don't know that many tall women. Of my bridesmaids, the tallest is 5'7" (the others are 5' and 5'3"). I don't get to spend much time with women who know what it's like to be tall. And I LOVED it. 
 
OH MY WORD. There was no stopping me. I zeroed in on the dresses and spotted the most beautiful maxi I've seen in a very long time. And the absolute best part?!? The hem goes all the way to the floor. Be still my beating heart.

I'm actually thinking this could be a perfect dress for our rehearsal dinner (and our honeymoon)!!
 
What's your latest LTS find?  Have you been to a pop-up shop?
