For additional accessories (which I agree with AG, it looks great minimal but polished as-is) you could try dangly earrings, some shorter dainty layered necklaces or a bib-type statement necklace tucked into the collar, or a silk scarf at the neck. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bored-at-work#post-897797 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 21:21:32 +0000 Liz A. 897797@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What a nice thing to say! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bored-at-work#post-897711 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 20:15:54 +0000 catgirl 897711@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I aspire to look this casually polished on days when I have to dress up a little.I don't see this as boring at all - everything fits you so well in such a cool understated way. :)&nbsp;&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bored-at-work#post-897705 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 20:14:32 +0000 Liz A. 897705@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <a rel="nofollow" href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/24464921@N07/8617653342/in/photostream">http://www.flickr.com/photos/2.....hotostream</a><br /><br />So I tried a little something new with scrunching my sleeve up and turning the cuff up. &nbsp;It seems to look ok. &nbsp;Baby steps, right?<br /><br />The other thing I've done is tuck in my shirt, which I NEVER do, because up until now I haven't had a shirt/pant combo that was long enough (extra long rise). &nbsp;However, I'm not sure I'm loving this particular combo either, because the pants don't have belt loops. &nbsp;Looks a bit off to me. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bored-at-work#post-897590 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 18:39:00 +0000 Liz A. 897590@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Thanks, ladies. &nbsp;To take the boring factor down just a tad, I am mixing 3 different patterns here although you can't make it out in the pictures. &nbsp;2 pinstripes and another subtle pattern on the shirt that I can't describe.<br /><br />Hmmm a scarf with a button down. &nbsp;Now there is something I would have no clue how to attempt. &nbsp;Time to start googling. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bored-at-work#post-897573 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 18:30:44 +0000 rachylou 897573@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look very cute! Very preppy (which I hope you think is a good thing).<br /><br />You could add a little scarf at the neck.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-bored-at-work#post-897564 Wed, 03 Apr 2013 18:22:38 +0000 Anonymous 897564@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ You look great!
