case in point: this outfit. originally, i was supposed to wear a crisp white shirt and a blazer with this skirt, and extend those pink socks to make them knee highs. but i ended up chicken-ing out and resorted to wearing it with my cropped tee (tucked in) and this black cardigan. i also scrunched up the pink socks to an ankle length.
outfit: old navy cardigan, tminx cropped tee, aa full woven skirt, sirens boots, betty johnson socks
how about you?

Haha, you are so cute! Great outfit!
For making clothes work year-round, I tend to wear a lot of tights (at least for fall, winter, and spring) - that seems to give me access to skirts and shorts that I wouldn't be able to wear otherwise.
yes yes!! that's so true! tight, leggings and socks are the answers to the cooler weather here. im not very fond of jeans so if i can still manage to wear just tights or leggings out, i will.. teehee! :D
Love the mix of socks and boots!

loveee your shoes and the socks. So cute! You look perfectly casual!! I love that top!
ReplyDeleteThis is too adorable :) I know what you mean, now that I'm working in a law firm, it's a bit different! I have to see what's conservative enough, I can't wear a lot of things I loved to wear before. I never even realized how short some of my skirts/dresses were. Whoops! It's odd how a different environment really forces you to rethink your day-to-day wardrobe. I say that this outfit is a perfect mix though, it's got it's casual aspects and it's dressy aspects that make it an amazing blend.
ReplyDeleteMiss you tons! I thought I should drop a word since I haven't been "present" in the Blogosphere for so long. Love love love and always supporting you!

Wear what you feel like! the other peeple who dress too casual probably have no style to begin with:P part of the fun of getting up for work is dressing up, embrase it. And as mentioned before the socks look way cuter rolled down and peeking out:)
ReplyDelete(oh and I know my spelling is terrible!)
you look great..
ReplyDeleteNice outfit !
ReplyDeleteOMG those socks are too cute!
ReplyDeleteLoved this look when I saw it on Chictopia. Still love it now :-)

I know exactly what you mean!! I try to alternate days between being dressy and casual so that people don't bug me too much about it. It's so odd isn't it to be bugged about looking too nice haha
