I managed to take pics every day this week. It was quite warm this week and our office is quite chilly with the exception of my office. I have windows facing south and west and it gets very hot especially when the door is closed and I spend a fair bit of time on conference calls with the door closed.
Some of the outfits worked and some I am not sure about.
1. I bought the animal print VC tube. My other two (B&W striped and black ruched) are PM and this is a medium. It feels looser in the waist and snugger in the hips but with the longer top, I think it works. I wasn't sure about the magenta color with it though since the background is a bit of a golden beige. The shoes I found in my closet from last year and still like them. I was concerned about the heel height (close to 3") but put foot petals in and the extra cushion made a world of difference.
2. This is one of the dresses I picked up in early June. I showed three of the others already. I love the colors but wonder if it is a bit frumpy. I wore the clark shoes with it. Maybe that added to the frump. Not sure...
3. The black/white slim pants, deep teal tank and softer teal top from Nordstrom. I wore my sperry angelfish for comfort. These sperrys have a gold dust finish on the tops.
4. This is the black ruched VC skirt and a white layered top I bought in spring in Fredericton. I wore another pair of shoes that I found in the closet. I should have looked in the shoe boxes sooner since I forgot I had a few pairs up there. I think this one worked but perhaps I need to start adding accessories again. I haven't for ages but think this outfit might have been better with a nice watch and/or earrings.
5. This is my nod to Suz. I saw these jcrew pants on her WIW a few weeks ago and ordered them along with the white linen v-neck. I semi-tucked because it felt a bit too volume on volume for me untucked. I rolled the pants too but started with one roll, then two, then three. Not sure if I went overboard or not. The sperry's again.
Well that is my week in review. I would love to hear feedback or suggestions for improvements. Thanks everyone.
