Pop.

     I'm not very comfortable wearing all over color. You've seen me do it a few times on this blog, but I'd rather do a neutral base and have one or two pieces to help give the outfit a little pop which is what I did here:

Shirt: Theory Atticus Button-down (Brown/Black Gingham, size P).

Denim: J Brand 910 (Ink, size 24).

Boots: Cole Haan Air Sarafina Boot by Maria Sharapova (Grey Suede, size 6.5)

Watch: Michael Kors Runway Watch (Silver).

Necklace: Stein Blye.

Belt: Banana Republic Factory Skinny Belt (Black, size S).

Scarf: LOFT Purl Rib Infinity Loop Scarf (Fiery Orange).

     Wow, I'm looking pretty tired in these photos. Long hours at work + minimal sleep = Cher.


     I actually wore this outfit to work yesterday. I've been working at pretty casual firm, and on Fridays we can wear jeans as long as the rest of the outfit is "business casual". The only thing that is different than what I'm showing in these pictures is the boots. I actually folded them down so they weren't OTK. I generally wouldn't recommend an OTK boot in the office, especially a heeled one. They are more acceptable to the younger generation, but for the more traditional and older generation, OTK boots are still strongly associated with prostitutes. Obviously, not a good image to be portraying to your clients or potential clients. Of course, use your own judgment as to what is appropriate to your particular workplace, but to be on the conservative side, no matter how "casual" my office appears to be, I always err on the side of caution and fold my OTK boots down--at least until I can figure out if I can wear them OTK without being yelled at. LOL.
