Style ... Your Desk Space

Whether you're working from home or studying for classes, the space in which you work in is essential to your productivity. Of course it should be organized and clutter free, but just because it's functional doesn't mean it can't be beautiful. Here are some desk and office essentials that will add a little glam to your work day.

This stapler will have you stapling just for fun.

Tape has never looked so sleek.

If you're like me, binders are absolutely necessary for categorizing. 

I especially love the navy blue and gold combo.

I currently use a cardboard box to store my many chargers. 

It might be time to upgrade to this beautiful box. 

A desk caddy is the best catch-all for all kinds of odds & ends. 

I use this one for paper clips, extra staples, pins, etc.

For added inspiration and motivation, it's good to have words of wisdom to look at.

Happy New York Fashion Week! 

Even if you aren't the most fashion savvy, you've probably heard of the famed New York Fashion Week. Today officially begins the debut of the Spring 2014 designer collections. Like any girl who loves fashion, I would love to be there. Not only for the designs but for the fantastic people watching. Since I'm stuck in Boston for graduate school (not that I have tickets), I've decided to participate from afar. 

Instead of checking power points, I'll be checking out the live stream. 

Class readings are going to take a backseat to the following fashion tales. 

Clockwise from top: 

Man Repeller: Seeking Love. Finding Overalls.

Grace: A Memoir

The Asylum: A collage of couture reminiscences...and hysteria

In case that's not enough, I might have to re-watch the September Issue while flipping through all the September issues. 

How will you celebrate Fashion Week?

Even though the end of summer doesn't necessarily signify the beginning of another school year for most, there's something about September that makes us feel like getting back to business. Instead of longing for those sunny days and warm nights, let's try to keep a little of that care-free spirit going throughout the next year, shall we? Cheers!
