Typical



Still trying to incorporate more brights into my winter looks... this look is suuuuuper typical of my work style. Classic navy trousers, white button down - funny how I put on this patterned scarf and bright orange bag and thought 'oh good, not so boring anymore!'  Then I look at the pictures and think 'nope, still pretty boring' haha. :)  What can I say?  I can't exactly pull off cutting edge fashion in my office environment (at least without getting looked at like some kind of freak), but I try to make the best of it. :)




Ann Taylor Loft blouse and pants; NY&Co scarf; Banana Republic belt (similar); Zara shoes; Cynthia Rowley bag; Michael Kors watch; WHBM earrings (old); Charming Charlie's ring and bangles; Francesca's sunglasses; L'oreal Colour Riche lipcolor in Volcanic (similar)

  1. I think you should get your freak on! Although I do think you look fabulous in this so called boring outfit! Do you read the blog This Time Tomorrow? She has lots of great "office friendly" outfits...perhaps some inspiration for you :)

  5. Thank you for finally doing a new outfit post (for those of us who are stalkers and miss seeing your pretty face). Oh, and it's not boring at all, btw - loving that orange bag and I have the same lipstick shade (one of my faves)!

  6. My first thought was "sharp", not "boring". I think "cutting edge" is often over-rated anyway. "Classics" carry the day in my world.

    BTW... I think you should ignore the crazy looks and dress however you like. I think you have great style.

  8. I have definitely been on the receiving end of some odd glances if I wear something too 'fashion forward' at the office. I try and keep it simple for the corporate world. And your outfit here is a perfect example of work appropriate but still very stylish! Love the sunglasses too!

  12. I think this is a perfect work look. I love it! I know it isn't totally crazy but perfect for the work environment. You always have the best lip color. Wish I could pull of something different without looking crazy!

  19. I feel ya! What looks bold for my office is pretty humdrum anywhere else, especially the blog world.
