I’m by no means suggesting this is anywhere near as revolutionary or iconic as Dior’s New Look. Au contraire: it’s traditional and unremarkable. But, I think it shows my commitment to adulting my work wardrobe. And the fact that I am, on occasion, capable of restraint. Also, I didn’t hate this outfit; in fact, I thought it was positively cute. But, like, grown-up cute. I allowed myself one print, and because the print was black-and-white, I threw in a hint of colour. I’ve learned my lesson trying to pair accessories with this shirt (answer: don’t), so I kept everything else simple. And then went and flooffed up my hair, because my restraint has limits, y’all.

I loved how the three layers looked this morning. (My camel coat makes everything look classy, though.) Maybe there is something in minimalism after all.
Maaaaybe.

Looking sharp! Love the “new look”.
Love the pop of color from the belt! It’s still fun, yet professional.
love everything about this. i feel like THIS is how you do you in your job. there’s a print, but it takes a backseat to your professionalism and talent. your hair looks fantastic, as do your nails. also really into the neutral palette in the detail gram!

That is a FAB serious bizness lady look indeed. I love that print…and the punch of color of the belt!
Looks good! Love the classic combo of red, white, and black – but modernized with the print and cropped pants. It’s classic with a twist!
Love it. Looks professional yet still has flair. Very grown up but definitely not boring. Way to go.
