Happy Halloween!
This post has nothing to do with Halloween but I am looking forward to taking the kids trick or treating tonight. I myself don’t dress up but I love to see the little kiddos in the neighborhood running around in their costumes. They’re just so cute! What are your plans for Halloween?
Today, I’m sharing a simple work look – classic black and white. Though I work from home most days, when I go into the office, I like to look professional from time to time based on my mood. I work in a corporate environment but it’s not as strict as it was a few years ago where you had to dress up everyday. We can now wear jeans any day of the week and not just Fridays. Woo hoo! However, sometimes, I do like to dress it up in the office.
I don’t know about you but I feel like a bow on a blouse adds a certain amount of class to an outfit. To me, it’s the ultimate professional look – like you mean business. I picked up this top from H&M a few weeks ago and paired it with a black skirt, also from H&M, but from about two years ago. The heels are from Nine West, linked here and the bag from Forever 21, (in stores, similar below).
*Please disregard the looks of my hair. It was super windy that day and it was all I could do to keep it under control. 🙂
I’ve linked exact and similar pieces below.
Have a great day lovelies!
