Dress for all occasions

Dress: Bisou Bisou.  Shoes: Steve Madden Luxe.  Belt: Gifted.

I love this dress because it works as an event dress, happy hour / cocktail dress, or even a work dress.  Today it served me as both a work and a happy hour dress!  This dress is also very comfortable and flattering with a more fitted silhouette.  I added the color belt and of course a fun sexy pair of shoes.  The belt and shoes actually matched almost identically, but for some reason the picture shoes them as a bit different.  Ah well – you get the gist  :)

Running with Ruffles

Top: Wassimo (Target).  Cream under-cami: JC Penny’s.  Skirt: Express.  Belt: ?. Tights: Kohl’s.  Booties: Steven.

Running late today – first day back to work after a couple days off, and I had an 8am dentist appointment too! – So, I only had time for 1 pic before mad dashing out the door.  And here it is!

I’ll be interviewing some people today, so I figure either black pants or a black skirt is always a perfect staple for that situation.  I also wanted to keep it light and not too intimidating, so I added the fun booties and (of course) a bright pop of color.

Initially, I couldn’t decide what to do with this top, but I ended up liking the look of the sheer fabric over the skirt and belt, so I just went more casual and left it loose.  No time for jewelry today except a simple right hand diamond ring.  I figure the ruffles can be my necklace.

Spring Flowers

 

Floral cardigan: Forever XXI.  Ruffle top: Mossimo.  Belt: NY & Co.  Pants: NY & Co.  Shoes: Jessica Simpson.

It’s spring!!!  Time for colors and flowers   :)

I think pink and floral could easily be over the top for work attire, but with the structure and fit of the tops and with the dark traditional business pants – it worked.
