As a colleague in your field, Beth, I say thumbs up all the way. Your wrap dresses are completely appropriate and professional and you should definitely keep wearing them.

*Someone* has to take a stand against the knit pants and holiday-applique vests that predominate in our environment...

Beth, you look absolutely perfect and appropriate in both wrap dresses! I don't see anything to object to here. You've chosen them well, and paired them with tasteful accessories and footwear, so to answer your question - no!

Very late returning to the party, but know that I read through everyone's replies carefully. Thanks and glad for the validation.

April's right, it's tough to take a stand against public school employee fashion but somebody has to do it. Glad you're also representing, April!

Deborah, the first dress is from Boden. The top is a bit more covered than other wrap dresses I've tried although I still wear a cami out of consideration for the clientele (hilarious, Krista!).

As for Tango, he and his buddies are agreeable with most fashion looks as long as I bring them raisins and peanuts:)

First of all - that Boden wrap dress is amazing!

Second - I think that for basic business casual wear, as long as the dress is not to exposing (too low cut or short, and a camisole and/or fashion tape can help), I think that wrap dresses are appropriate for business wear.

One of the senior executives at our company wears beautiful wrap dresses (they look like they are probably DVF?) I was totally tickled when I happened to be wearing a patterned wrap dress too, and she passed by and complimented me on it.

I think yours are great, not at all bombshell. For myself, however, this style of dress does accentuate my - ahem - "feminine" side. Hourglasses are told that wrap dresses were made for us, and I would agree - if that was the message I wanted to send. Someone who is all bust and booty like myself might find the wrap dress a bit too racy. And they are almost always low cut.
