Interim Cohabitatant

Hello fashionable people!  A few of you may know that Rad has a co-contributor here at The Cohabitating Closet, but in case you don't (since I've been lurking for WAY too long), I'll introduce myself briefly.  I've got a few posts out there, but I had some life stuff keeping me away from the office and thus having to look decent everyday for a while, so I focused on my cooking blog instead. I'm Rad's Midwestern counterpart; the D-Med to her A-Dubs (this assumption is based solely on our respective karaoke choices).  I guess "counterpart" does imply that we're similar, but fashion-wise we're somewhat different.  Rad, for example, can sew and refashion things, whereas I can't sew much more than a button.  Another big difference is that Rad, like many of you I've noticed, is an academic.  I, on the other hand, hang out in a cubicle in a business-casual office in corporate America, so we have slightly different dress codes for work wear.  Are there any other corporate ladies out there?

Since the lovely Rad is going to be enjoying a week in Frankfurt, and prompted by In Professorial Fashion's New Faculty Orientation, I thought I'd keep you all company.  Unfortunately, being a corporate drone and all, I don't have the interesting social commentary to provide that Rad does.  Instead, I have what is hopefully cute and occasionally stylish business-casual attire, and it's more along the lines of a daily outfit post.  So here's what I wore today:
Dress: Target
Cardigan: Target
Sandals: Aerosoles
Necklace: NY & Company
I don't think this is my final submission, but I'm definitely getting ready for the Wonder Woman Pose Conference.  Are you?

If none of that was interesting, perhaps I can win you over with a picture of a cute dog?  He couldn't join me in my pictures tonight because he was busy chewing up one of my favorite earrings (sigh), but that's just proof of how much he loves accessories.
