“Happiness is not the absence of problems, it’s the ability to deal with them.”

― Steve Maraboli

I’ve been thinking a lot! Like A LOT A LOT!  My thoughts have mostly been about how far I’ve come, where I am, and most importantly where I want to be. I think the ultimate goal for everyone in life is to simply be happy? Right? But do we truly understand what happiness is? And if we spend so much time trying to get there than how will we know when we are there? I’m just trying to figure it all out.

Blah Blah Blah… ok on to what inspired this look. 

This is another look from my book of curvy girl in a corporate world “OFFICE WERK: “Wrapped Up” edition. I am such a fan of wrap dresses, they are so comfortable, but I would consider them a bit risky. Why? Well because once they are belted they hug your curves which could or could not be flattering.  Here I took a double risk. That’s what life is all about right? If you are a frequent reader of my blog then you know I am obsessed with polka dots. This H&M dress is the perfect office look, and even more perfect for fall. I love the fact that its long sleeve. Another great thing about wrap dresses is that they allow room for layering up.  Luckily, It has yet to become unbearably cold outside, (thank God) so I was able to wear it as is. But when it does get cold I can easily pair the dress with leggings and a turtle neck.

At the foot, I decided to go with a red pointed toe pump to add a touch of color and class.

I may be forever in pursuit of being “wrapped up” in happiness, but I’ll travel that road in style! 🙂
