#GIRLBOSS /
Being a fan of Nasty Girl and being an entrepreneur myself, I had to take a moment to read Sophia Armoruso's book, #GIRLBOSS. An easy read, but super inspiring specifically because of Armoruso's unconventional path to success. Below are some of the greatest take-away quotes from the book in addition to outside quotes Armoruso includes:

A few editorials from W Magazine. With all of the germs going around in an open concept office, I often think, maybe the bubble is the next best accessory?! Cate Blanchett pulls it off quite well! :)
