What I wore to work - Red and blue all over.

Getting ready for work. Does it ever get any easier? I would love to be one of those women that has a concise capsule wardrobe that all goes together effortlessly to produce a chic, streamlined look. I am too much of a magpie, always collecting shiny, pretty things. That may or may not go with all the other shiny, pretty things I have collected. It's a problem.

Today I felt like a dress. I wear dresses a lot. They're easy. Dress on. Bam. Outfit done! I sometimes find hemlines difficult - I'm tall and don't want to show too much leg at work. As an aside I find it strange when retailers aimed at my demographic ( 30+, work in a business casual environment) have "work" type dresses and skirts that finish mid thigh. Who is wearing them??

Anyway, back to the outfit. Target, jersey fabric, bought it some time ago. Nothing spectacular but it feels comfortable, looks nice.

 

 

Dress: Target (last year). Similar here (Target - linen rather than jersey - Linen Boating Dress $49 )or here (Metalicus - Primrose Tank dress $129)

Shoes: Cotton On. No longer available but have other colour Danseur flat for $14.95.

 

 

 

The necklace is Lovisa. Their website is a bit of a disaster and they don't seem to have online sales or product info. Or at least not in an obviously visible spot! Anyway the necklace is a bit of fun that grubby little hands can grab hold of without me having a heart attack!

 

That is What I Wear to Work. What about you? I would love ideas for something fresh and different!
