This black/white print dress is from my beloved H&M, and actually came with a sash, but I've opted to wear it with a wide belt. I actually like how it looks with the belt much better. I'm wearing this with a pair of green tights and booties. Sorry for the weird angle of some of these pics... my hubby has a bum leg so he took these pics from the couch.

Got this dress from Macy's for my birthday a couple years ago. Since it's too short to not wear hosiery, I really only wear this in the fall. But since it's sleeveless, I have to wear it with a long sleeve shirt underneath (this one from Gap). Worn with my semi-opaque tights with a bit of sheen... the camera's flash makes my legs look super shiny, but I can assure you in normal light they aren't this bad.

This green tee is of unknown origins, but I love the prairie-style cream colored lace detail around the neckline. It used to have a tiny delicate ribbon that was strung through it, but it got destroyed in the wash long ago. The only downside to this top is that it's a little too short for my torso/large chest, so I always have to layer it. By the time I do that, I'm not certain it's very flattering on me. The skirt is from Old Navy, I believe and is comfortable, fits well and I usually get nice compliments on it. However, I think the skirt may have run its course in my wardrobe and I'm thinking it's time to let it go.

I wore this exact outfit (sans black shirt underneath) to my 10 year reunion in August and I think I looked pretty awesome in it. I might keep this one for weekend/special events rather than a work outfit. I dunno, I don't care for it with the shirt underneath. The tunic is from Target (though I have to tell you I saw a girl around 11 years old wearing it at the mall as a dress!) and the jeggings are JCP, natch. See how jeggings can look just like skinny jeans? Oh and they only have 1% spandex, which is less than a lot of my dress pants. Just for the record. :)
Both Monday and Wednesday are smokin' hot ensembles. Also love Tuesday's leopard print top under blazer, but I think you're right about the wide-leg pants. I personally like Thursday's skirt... don't know if I'd toss it yet! Friday's look is adorable; I want jeggings now. Maybe try a tight 3/4-sleeve or long-sleeved top underneath, rather than short-sleeved? I really like the layered look and think it might just be the sleeve length that's throwing it off.
ReplyDeleteIMO-there is a perfect skirt length or certain skirt lengths for every person. Monday is too long and Wednesday is too short. I think on Monday your top half looks like summer and your bottom half looks like fall or winter-so I would have paired a sweater or used a lighter pair of tights.
ReplyDeleteI like Tuesday-this would also have worked well with a darker brown or black pants..or ooh ooh..a chocolate jacket or color somewhere. I would also think that on Wednesday you could add a super cool belt.
Thursday is just fine,there isn't anything wrong with it--it seems like you are losing a bit of color when you get to the bottom of your closet :)
Friday-I liked it better without a shirt..maybe a jacket/sweater would have been good for work?
wow seriously sexy
