I've been eyeing this dress |
|
JCrew gray wool blazer
Black pencil skirt Blue bow neck blouse Black tights and heels. Not my most fab outfit |
Definitely work appropriate!! I love this outfit. |
| denim leggings, flowy black and white printed blouse, black/grey cardigan, black ankle boots. |
| Skinny jeans, ankle boots, kelly green silk blouse, black blazer, chunky gold watch, pearl earrings. |
| I work from home, but this makes me miss dressing for work. |
Working from home today after working 16 hour days all week this week and heading into a weekend of travel for work tomorrow. Today's work outfit consists of yoga pants, a concert t shirt, and a cover of blankets and pillows and one large dog

Ditto. Wish I could rock this outfit. Totally would if I could!!!! |

Yesterday: grey pencil skirt with cream pinstripes (Limited), cream v-neck 3/4 sleeve sweater (Ann Taylor), nude patent pumps (Nine West).
Today: black pixie pants (J Crew), maroon top with matching long, open-front cardigan (Talbots), black ankle boots (Munro). The boots aren't the most stylish things, but they're great for this morning's weather. I like seeing people post the brands because it's fun to see how everyone mixes up different brands. I think it's inspriring to see outfits combine inexpensive base pieces (Costco, H&M, etc) with higher-end stuff. I'd like to do more of that! |
| 3/4 length thin black sweater (nordstrom.. no idea on brand), black and white striped short-ish skirt (target- 3" above knee), black leggings, coach two-toned black/brown knee high boots. This weather BLOWS. |
I'm the one who posted that outfit. While I know the PP was referring to the shoes as not being appropriate, they definitely were. That said, I'm a size 10 and I rocked that outfit. It's very flattering. First time I wore it and DH joked that I should wear it everyday. |

Yesterday: white Brooks Brothers button down shirt with long-ish gray cardigan from Club Monaco, Navy Ralph Lauren wide leg pants and black patent leather kate spade wedges, one of my favorite outfits
Today: tailor-made (in asia, super cheap, copy of a club monaco suit) gray suit, black ribbed tank top from Club Monaco, black wedge ankle boots from Dolce Vita that look bad with the outfit but had to b/c of the weather. reading this makes me realize that i haven't been to a club monaco in years but some of my staples have lasted 5+ years and are still going strong! |

Storq maternity leggings (black)
James Perse sweatshirt dress (black) Gap scarf (red plaid) Coach knee high flat boots. (black) When is spring? Also looking forward to non maternity clothing! |

Yesterday: gray straight leg ankle pants-LOFT, purple space-dyed tunic sweater-bought at Stein mart, black Cole Haan ankle boots.
Today: rolled boy-friend jeans, Chuck Taylor slip-ons, concert tee, gray polkadot sweater (Talbots). Reading these makes me feel really dumpy and un-stylish. How do you all find your style and choose the right pieces to look cool and still be yourself?? I actually hired a stylist to go shopping with me, and while I did learn some things from her, I find that I hate 90% of what I bought because it doesn't really flatter me or make me feel good. I think I bought it because she was telling me how good it looked and I wanted to believe her. She is an "expert" I hired, after all. Now, I think she chose things that look good on HER body type, not mine. We are totally different, and what I chose makes me look shapeless and dumpy. So mad I wasted that money and still don't know how to shop. |
| ^^^ If you could wear one outfit every day, what would it be? Then upgrade it. Is it great jeans and a band tee shirt? Maybe wear the band tee shirt with a pencil skirt (a favorite move of mine). Wear a blazer with the jeans and tee. Wear a really fun shaped cardigan. Just expand on the outfit that you love the most, and you will feel better about your wardrobe, I promise. But you need to be true to you. |
