Feminine ruffles and a structured pencil skirt are a perfect combo for an easy and appropriate look for the office.  And that that warmer weather has finally found its way to Minneapolis, Rex enjoyed a trip to the dog park this week... It was a highly anticipated 25 minutes of running around like an uncaged beast and marking his territory on literally every bush and tree in the park - the smile says it all :)

Oh Rex is so cute! He has a BIG smile on his face. I saw a thing on NBC a few weeks ago saying some university study admits that that expression is INDEED a smile. So if it looks like a smile, then it is. Cool.

Oh your blouse/top is so feminine and refreshing, just like you!

Rex is the cutest. And that top is adorable! You look great!
