    That Loft lantern jacket is in my cart as we speak- I just love the goldenrod colour and it’s such a beautiful blazer, unlike any that I own.

    Have a job interview for the first time in 11 years tomorrow, thanks for posting about negotiating salary!

    For me, the salary is above what I make, and really good. But it’s also possible to negotiate for other things, like flexibility and perks – with a small child I need a workplace that can provide that more than a few thousand more dollars.

    My first big ask is going to be for a start date that will allow me to complete some obligations in my current job, when I know they need someone right away.

The Find: Like a McCall’s Pattern
