A Bonus Read
Finally, I have to share something that’s special to me… As I mentioned here, I am very active at the University of Texas serving on the Engineering Advisory Board. While I was in Austin for our semi-annual meetings a few weeks ago, I had the chance to connect with a special student, Sarah of The Bella Insider. Sarah is both a petroleum engineering student and a fashion blogger. It’s not every day that I meet someone with that same unique engineering + blogging combo of mine! We had a great time visiting about everything – fashion, style, career, college, travel, engineering, women in STEM, and so much more.
Read my interview with Sarah here.
I shared some information I don’t think I’ve even shared here on Wear + Where + Well. I hope you enjoy!
Also, be sure to follow along on social media this weekend ( Instagram (username: @carriec) and Snapchat (username: wearwherewell) ) for behind the scenes coverage of the Kentucky Derby. Have a great weekend!
Hi Carrie,
I really enjoyed reading your interview. OMG! The part about having no style in college and being from a small town/limited means, I can completely relate. I am 10 years your senior, but you have really helped inspire me to up my style game this past year or so as I have followed along with you. Thanks sweetie 🙂
Sheri
Hi Sheri – Oh, I’m so glad you liked it! We had a nice chat about all sorts of things.
I had absolutely no style in high school / college! I wore mostly golf shirts and denim shorts. So bad. LOL
And thanks for your kind words. So appreciated.
That was a wonderful interview! You are a ver inspiring person Carrie! I am loving all your snaps of the Kentucky Derby!!
Sydney
Hey thanks a bunch, Sydney! Hope all is going well with school.
Great interview! Fabulous quote “Dress for the job you want, not the job you have”. I did enjoy the reading list and I bookmark some links for Monday readings.
Thanks, Isabella! I appreciate you stopping by. Hope you had a great weekend.
Hi, Carrie! I hope you had a wonderful weekend at the Kentucky Derby. I sure enjoyed your snaps! Thank you again for all the wonderful things you shared in the interview. I sure enjoyed your responses, and I know lots of my petroleum engineering girlfriends (and guy friends!!) enjoyed them, too!
Much love, Sarah
Ah, wonderful! Thanks, Sarah. I’m so happy to hear that.
Good luck with finals. We will talk soon!
