Architecture of an Outfit: Tie Neck Button Down, Bows, Shorts and Leopard Wedges

Aloha, Lovecat,

I know you miss me. I miss you, too. I do!!

{ Architecture of an Outfit / Outfit of the Day: Bows, Leopard Heels and Shorts… Office Sexy Outfits }

Let’s get back to the good stuff: A style post. Esp, since I have nothing to say right now. I’m super tired, and I have a long day tomorrow of yet more training. Three-four more months of training during the busiest time of the year. Eeps.

This outfit is not entirely work-appropriate, unless you work at a start up or an extremely creative environment or industry. And, while my office is pretty casual for business casual, and most of the girls here are pretty on the up and up on fashion, these “dressy shorts” still wouldn’t fly at my new office–not even on Casual Day. Oh well. I loved what I had when I had it when I worked for ETSIS – Escaping The Sun In Style–casual fashion everyday.

{ Shorts and a button down. Not exactly work friendly, but swap out the shorts for a pencil skirt, and you’re good to go. }

{ Thinking thoughts. }

{ I bring this to work every single day. It’s the best tote I’ve ever bought. }

{ My favorite pair of heels. Two and a half years later, we’re still together. }
