You look totally 'at home' and comfortable&nbsp;in that outfit. &nbsp;</p> <p>The addition of the leather jacket&nbsp;and the peek-a-boo plaid is a bit more hard edge, versus the paid on it's own which has a nod to polished&nbsp;grunge.</p> <p>Rachylou- dressing so that you are&nbsp;'respecting the integrity of the building'....... bwahahaha! &nbsp;Seriously, you totally crack me up!&nbsp;Maybe you would be more comfortable if you&nbsp;fought&nbsp;of it as an ironic juxtaposition between architecture and couture??... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rocker-chic-at-work#post-1421721 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 22:11:12 +0000 Beth Ann 1421721@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>P.S.&nbsp; I second Suz.&nbsp; I try to take pics of new outfit combinations and sometimes use my pics when getting dressed in the mornings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rocker-chic-at-work#post-1421720 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 22:10:04 +0000 Beth Ann 1421720@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love the layering and the mix of urban black and grunge elements.&nbsp; Plaid does seem like it deserves a place in your wardrobe -- now is a good time to find lots of plaid options!</p> <p>The shoes are stunning --- do you change at work?&nbsp; I'm thinking it would be a lot to keep them clean on a cold, snowy day.</p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rocker-chic-at-work#post-1421590 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 18:29:09 +0000 Suz 1421590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great outfit! I like it both with and without the jacket.&nbsp;</p> <p>I usually take pics of my outfits and then I will sometimes go through the pictures if a similar occasion comes up &nbsp;and I am wondering what to wear.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rocker-chic-at-work#post-1421576 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 18:13:25 +0000 trekkiegirl 1421576@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Rachylou - that's a great question. I think if I dressed to match the buildings I worked in, I'd be extremely bored! I know that's not literally what you meant, but I had to say it ;)</p> <p>Being "rocked out" is so ingrained in my personality that I guess I don't even think about it anymore, except to consider what type of clients may be coming in on a particular day. For example, if a banking client was expected in, I might have worn a less eye-catching necklace... But that's probably about as much as I would change. I'm very fortunate in that I work in an industry (tech) that is very widely accepting of all kinds of personalities and therefore styles as well. The assistant to the CEO at our headquarters in NY has a Mohawk and she rocks it! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rocker-chic-at-work#post-1421567 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 18:03:31 +0000 rachylou 1421567@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I rather like the outfit sans jacket better too. You get to see the plaid, which is so essential :D</p> <p>I see you are in a corporate building. I have to ask how you felt being rocked out in such an environment? I'm always torn between what I like and, lol, respecting the integrity of the building (blame all the architects in my family). Sadly, I'm not joking.</p> <p><i>re. When you find an outfit that really resonates with you, how do you typically store the idea or "look" for later reference?<br /> </i></p> <p>Apparently not at all. I'm looking at all my old pics on here right now, and I'm wondering why I don't repeat any of them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rocker-chic-at-work#post-1421561 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 17:52:18 +0000 kkards 1421561@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>great look! we do flannel friday's at work as well. love an excuse to wear my flannel shirt to work. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rocker-chic-at-work#post-1421547 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 17:36:31 +0000 deb 1421547@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love your hair!!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rocker-chic-at-work#post-1421545 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 17:35:35 +0000 Diana 1421545@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Nice!

Why would thyy? You look fab, and that's what matters, right! I love this polished version af rock chic style on you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/rocker-chic-at-work#post-1421424 Fri, 09 Jan 2015 14:38:57 +0000 trekkiegirl 1421424@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>In my weekly style schedule, Fridays are "personality day" for me. Today was designated as Flannel Friday for an office theme, but my only paid shirt has a rip in the sleeve so I mended it best I could and decided to throw a leather jacket over it. From there I went with a graphic T under the flannel (a friend's band actually :), a silver geometric necklace, black skinnies, my much-loved suede stiletto booties, and a studded belt. Makeup is smoky purple eyes and pink nude lips, hair is my signature high pony with the punk swoop. (Pretty quickly got too warm and took the jacket off. I hope the mended rip isn't too noticeable. I really need to get more plaid shirts!!)</p> <p>Any feedback, positive or critical/helpful, is most welcome!</p> <p>As the day goes on, I am noticing just how much I enjoy this outfit. It's extremely comfortable, I feel stylish yet very true to myself, and it's flattering on my figure. </p> <p>When you find an outfit that really resonates with you, how do you typically store the idea or "look" for later reference? </p>
