A new post series I'm going to try is WOOTD -- aka: Work Outfit of the Day. (If I stole this WOOTD from another blogger please let me know...I think I've seen it before but can't recall where)! I LOVE looking at other bloggers' OOTD. However, I find that most of the outfits posted out there are pretty casual. I have to wear suiting (or scrubs) for work every single day. I'm going to start doing a few posts a week on how I put my suiting together so it doesn't look so stuffy.
Here is today's OOTD....right now I'm really into skirt suits with a shirt/blouse tucked in and a belt. I also love me a pencil skirt and pretty much every skirt suit I own has one.
Today I'm wearing a really old suit from about 4 years ago. I scored this on super clearance at Express. We are talking like the entire suit for 40 bucks! The catch -- I bought the jacket 2 sizes too big and the skirt 1 size too big. I know an excellent tailor and for an additional $40 he resized the suit. I don't know where else I could get an entire suit for $80!
Outfit details:
Suit: Express, Spring 2005
Belt: JCrew (click here), Size Medium
Shirt: JCrew Ruffle Tank (Spring 2009), Size XS (This thing ran HUGE!)
Shoes: Nine West Nude kitten heel pumps, Spring 2010
Have a great weekend everybody!
xoxo,
