TAKING CARE OF BUSINESS
So in the midst of all the back to school hoopla, so many young professionals may be going through supply withdrawal. It wasn't that long ago when we got to experience new shiny pencils and organizational binders. Well, you can still enjoy a little back to 'business' supply shopping and guess what - as you get older the supplies get more chic! As always, a fun prize for one lucky My Scoop comment poster!

Oh my gosh - I love the laptop case!
The broadband card is a lifesaver!
So many fun "business" supplies -- but my very favorite is that journal! I can't believe you found it at Marshall's of all places.
I absolutely miss school supply shopping. My cousin was at my apartment the other day telling me about her own supply trip, and I was definitely jealous. Then I watched You've Got Mail... "I love New York in the fall. It makes me want to buy school supplies. I would send you a bouquet of freshly sharpened pencils if I knew your name and address." :sigh: That line gets me every time!
I absolutely love the Kate Spade calling cards. What a great way to stand out!!! It would be a little less formal, not so boring, step away from the typical business cards we all keep handy!
hi.
i miss back to school shopping, too!
I miss back to school too andgot very nostalgic after a recent trip to Target - there is just something so sastisfying about getting prepared and organized!
Love the journal and the calling cards are such a cute idea!
School supply shopping always brings back fun memories of perfectly packing my schoolbag before school started. It's good to see suggestions of "supplies" for all of us that still like to buy even though we aren't school supply shopping for ourselves any more!
I know exactly what you mean and yes thank goodness as yougetolder the "supplies" get better!
Ha:)! It is so true I am very nostaligic about school supply shopping - LOVE these cute must have supplies.
Swoozie's at the summit had some really cute passport and business card holders on sale two weeks ago. Check them out. Also, they had great solid-colored clutches for really cheap.
As a preschool teacher, I love getting organized for school! I have to write down all the cute things the children say, or I will forget. Love the website!
The broadband card is a lifesaver for sure!
That journal is great and what a fun idea to always be able to keep your work notes!
That laptop case is so chic - I want that and the Lambertson truex important paper case which seems so unnecessary but so cool too!
I love the Kate Spade calling cards and calendar!
