I don't care if "they" will let folks wear distressed jeans or droopy jeans to work in more corporate environments (as opposed to IT and creative firms), Fridays or not, I think THIS is the way to wear jeans to work if you're allowed (okay, and a few more ways, even with my narrow style filter). With all of the other elements polished and interesting but not so casual. Brilliant! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-blue-1#post-1187869 Fri, 07 Mar 2014 19:12:40 +0000 Anonymous 1187869@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What a great fit those trouser jeans are and the various shade of blue are delicious!

But I have a few items I will won't let go of because when they do fit, they feel great on and IMHO look good on. These jeans are one of those. And they cost all of $20!</p> <p>Ceit &amp; Inge - I am indeed very happy with my decision to change jobs. It has turned out even better than I had hoped for and is one of the best choices I have ever made. Does it actually show???</p> <p>Adorkable - I've added a close up of the top's pattern and colors so you can see the details.</p> <p>Thanks ladies </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-blue-1#post-1187577 Fri, 07 Mar 2014 14:15:11 +0000 Neel 1187577@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love your top!!

I am so happy you got that job, you seem a lot happier and energised with the change. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/wiw-shades-of-blue-1#post-1187500 Fri, 07 Mar 2014 12:23:32 +0000 Transcona Shannon 1187500@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yesterday, my boss announced that we could now wear jeans on Fridays as long as they are dressy, darker wash, trouser style jeans. Well aren't I lucky to have a pair of those in my closet?!</p> <p>So today's outfit started with these trouser jeans that I have had for at least 3-4 years. At times they don't fit because they're too small (or too big) but I've never gotten rid of them because when they do fit, I love wearing them. I paired the jeans with a very light weight knit in various shades of blue and teal with a small citron thread running through. Overtop of that, I've added my navy Lanai blazer. For footwear, I went with my blue-purple suede booties, although for walking to and from my car, I will have on my winter boots and will change into the suede booties in the office. I didn't have time to change my handbag, so am using my black leather bag again today. Jewelry is my silver wedding band and a lovely cobalt and silver cuff bracelet that MIL gave me for my birthday.&nbsp;</p> <p>I'm really happy with how this turned out and think this is casual but professional. What do you think - does it work? As always, all comments/suggestions welcome.</p> <p>Blazer: Theory<br />Knit pullover - ana Petite (thrifted)<br />Jeans: Reitmans<br />Booties: Aerosole<br />Handbag: Danier Leather </p> <p>ETA: I've added a close up of the sweater colors/knit pattern for Adorkable.</p>
