I'm biased--I wear my orange B44 with leather blazer at work too! But you totally rock this look!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-325-bailey-44-goes-to-the-office#post-889929 Wed, 27 Mar 2013 04:31:07 +0000 CocoLion 889929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Although it's sassy and sexy, this outfit is work appropriate in my book. &nbsp;The way you've styled it with a black jacket and black pumps is what takes this away from date night and into the office. &nbsp;This is one of those outfits I could see in an editorial about how to dress for work and a date afterwards. &nbsp;You know, remove the jacket, change out the accessories and trade the black pumps for a strappy heel. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-325-bailey-44-goes-to-the-office#post-889564 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 23:12:13 +0000 Aida 889564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look too fabulous to still be feeling residual sickness Mary! Really like the dark colors with all the exposed skin, now that's how to wear dark colors in spring without being too heavy. I like the outfit even more after reading that the jacket is shorter in back! Yay for the pendant, I'm glad it's getting so much use https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-325-bailey-44-goes-to-the-office#post-889126 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 17:26:45 +0000 Ingunn 889126@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ It works overwhelmingly well! Isn't there rules against looking <i>too</i> good after a tummy flu? I seriously want your wardrobe. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-325-bailey-44-goes-to-the-office#post-888998 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 15:51:10 +0000 ElleH 888998@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I don't know what the dress code is at your office but you look amazing! I understand the bootie concern. Nothing to do with size or shape of booties in this dress, it is just that they look quite sexy in this dress, in a bombshell way. In many workplaces that is OK, especially with a jacket debombshelling the overall look. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-325-bailey-44-goes-to-the-office#post-888873 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 13:32:57 +0000 Transcona Shannon 888873@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Not too body con at all with the jacket on top MaryK - and this dress just looks amazing on you.<br /><br />Hope you're feeling 100% soon https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-325-bailey-44-goes-to-the-office#post-888758 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 08:25:36 +0000 lyn67 888758@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh,&nbsp; true&nbsp;MaryK is back!:-) Now, this is one of the most true to your style&nbsp;outfit in a time Mary, so I love it!

I'd look like death warmed over. You look so good in that dress, and the longer jacket was brilliant to pair with it. Not too body-con at all!&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-325-bailey-44-goes-to-the-office#post-888652 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 02:47:49 +0000 Beth Ann 888652@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sometimes I feel like my FFBO are cop outs -- not because I'm being lazy, but because they're easy, but a little boring.<br /><br />Well, not THIS one.&nbsp; It's simple in that it doesn't require a lot of fuss, but it's high impact and fab.&nbsp; And yes, the jacket makes it safe even for lawyers!<br /><br />Feel better soon!<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-325-bailey-44-goes-to-the-office#post-888647 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 02:35:12 +0000 Raisin 888647@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think the jacket really makes it work for the office. &nbsp;You look great, hope you are feeling better.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-325-bailey-44-goes-to-the-office#post-888645 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 02:29:36 +0000 Tina.b 888645@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Perfect for work with that gorgeous black blazer.

Or rather, amazing what <b>you</b> can do with the flu and a blazer, right? You are inspiring me to maybe try my bodycon galaxy dress with a long blazer at work... hm... I think I especially love the chunky pendant with it - really brings the eye to the face and tones down the body-con-ness. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-325-bailey-44-goes-to-the-office#post-888598 Tue, 26 Mar 2013 01:25:15 +0000 hedgiehog 888598@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I think you look great!
