BUSINESS AS USUAL
Top / Skirt also find here / Shoes: Sold Out Similar / Bag / Sunglasses / Bracelet / Earrings / Lipstick
One of my favorite office looks is a fitted top and full midi skirt that cinches at the waist. To top (or bottom) it off I’ve added a splash of metallics with these chrome sling backs. Mixed in The Alexander Wang Rocco and I believe I’ve pulled off an office friendly, girly/edgy look.
What are some of your favorite business ensembles?
BRAVING DENIM CUT-OFFS

So its looking like I’ve subconsciously chosen this week to have a few “outside of my comfort zone” moments. Monday with the crop top, Wednesday with thinking about swimsuits far before my thighs are ready and today its short ripped denim. I usually refrain from wearing shorts at all because I, like so many women am not fond of the backs of my legs. However I’m tired of sweating in the hot Texas sun and being confined to only skirts and dresses for keeping cool.
I also needed something edgy to pair with this amazing tee. My nerves were in a tizzy when I blindly ordered these vintage diy ripped babies from a Posh closet. The jitters quickly subsided once they arrived. To my giddy amazement they have the perfect baggy boyfriend fit and stop just far enough on my legs to prevent the jeopardy of a Daisy Duke situation.
Do you have any plans to fashionably step outside of your comfort zones this season? If so, are they specifically pertaining to areas that you usually try to hide?
Happy Friday!!!
LITTLE BLACK MIDI
Dress: Alexander Wang / Bag: Chanel / Shoes: Valentino / Bracelets: Loren Hope & Wrist Soiree Sold Out Similar / Nails: OPI / Lipstick: MAC Flat Out Fabulous / Earrings: Simplicity Strand / Rings: Express
I was out shopping for this moto jacket a few weeks ago. As the escalator slowly made its way up, my breath was snatched away by this little black midi dress. Its sexy yet sophisticated form clung softly to the mannequin. The splendid length and gorgeous twist details had me at hello.
My excitement began to fade when I saw that it was in the Alexander Wang section. I have a few splurge items by Wang that I’d saved for. As hot as it was, my wallet wasn’t prepared to justify this dress as a last minute purchase. Still holding my breath, I turned over the price tag. To my surprise it was from Wang’s “T” line and only cost $165! I tried it on and had one of those rare dressing room moments when you love everything about a piece and can’t bear to take it off. I did eventually end up disrobing and carrying it straight to the register!
If you see this dress slung over a hanger please don’t pass it up as another shapeless piece. Do yourself a favor and at least try it on! You’ll thank me later:)
Happy Tuesday Loves!
