Work Wear With Teal
Last Thursday I was going to wear a black and white polka dot dress that has an accordion pleat skirt, with a mint color cardigan and thin, braided tan belt. I was going to add black opaque tights and black flats and pop myself over to work. Then I couldn't find my tights, the dress had a tear on the strap(which I've since mended) and my cardigan just looked tired. Do you ever idealize an outfit and once it comes to fruition you just think...Meh? That was me today. So instead, I went for sequins again. You have to wear what you love! Here's the look:
I wore a teal sequin tank, gray slacks, a black cardigan, and black wedge heels with my vintage Dooney & Bourke bag. I topped it off with some simple hoop earrings, a layered BR beaded necklace with ribbon ties, and a red pout. What do you think? I'm glad I didn't end up wearing black slacks, it would have been too blah. I love this look for work. This shirt catches the light and sparkles like a disco ball!
My shirt matches my personality. Glittery.

Thanks Haley! I try to get my details. I do this collage thing so that people who use smart phones or tablets only have to load one page. I think it's working out.
Thank You for your feedback!

Thanks Carla! I am very, very pale so I think that jewel tones look good with my skin tone.

I know Tara, I just can't help myself...so glittery! All the hotel guests kept asking why I was dressed up on a Thursday. The pics were actually shot very close to the hotel when I got off. I find it pretty!
I entered your giveaway, hope I win!
Thanks for your comment. It is so nice when well established bloggers give me feedback.

You are so adorable! I read your introduction on your blogger profile and I have to say I'm impressed- I love how you're from a region where people don't focus too much on fashion and how determined you are to change that and showcase your personal sense of style. I'm sure this sequined top drew you tons of stares because normally people don't dress like that on a normal day - but my goodness, you totally rocked it! You have the confidence to pull off anything!
I have followed your blog. Can't wait to see what else you have to share with us :) x
Happy Sunday! There's a new post up on my blog right now and I'd love to hear your thoughts on it so feel free to stop by anytime.

Thank you Fatima! I'm trying. I am definitely stopping by your blog. I love it when people leave feedback. It makes this so worth it!

Thank you! It was from this place called Dots. They sell trendy clothes for very cheap prices, which I like. I don't want to spend $100 on something that is only going to be in style for one season. I am pretty sure this top was BOGO and I have a hot pink one exactly like it. $10 plus tax. Not bad!
Thank you for stopping by!
