Basic Work Outfit: Collar, Sweater, Necklace + Skirt

I had a wonder time without work today and spent the morning purchasing and dining on Newbury road. It turned into the sort of deal with to stroll outside earlier than the real bloodless hits tomorrow. See Twitter photos from me and Khatu (plus a lone Instagram) for a few buying updates. For absolutely everyone who preferred this classic white blouse with black trim, H&M now has a brand new one in a smoother, silkier fabric, plus collar (amusing!), minus huge pockets, minus black trim on the sleeves - for an updated rate of $24.ninety five. I did not attempt it on so i'm no longer positive about the fit. item # is 045939.

i haven't written every other suitcase fashion posts yet (I did acquire your questions on packing & beauty bag contents and will strive to expose the ones), so here's a filler put up showing the Crewcuts sweater from this evaluate. I wore this easy outfit minus the sweater to paintings. I threw on the sweater for a few short photos to see how it'd look tucked in, but lower back it afterwards and saved the yellow.

Sweater: Crewcuts mohair cable sweaters kids sz 12  Skirt: Ann Taylor Cobalt Ponte sz 00P

Collared Shirt: Gap  Tights: Target Kids  Pumps: CK Elara (no more leopard)  

Trench: Burberry (similar) sz 2   Necklace: thrifted

The sweater in a children length 12 became smooth to tuck in without being too poofy from the side or returned. This thin, unlined, slightly-too-large ponte skirt, however, is not the fine desire to hide any tucked tops. I either want to discover a proper slip, or want to forestall buying decrease exceptional, unlined pieces that do not suit and are unworthy of changes. I also hope to discover a similar camel sweater quickly in womens sizing to fill the void in my closet.

I bought my first pair of brown tights this year and have found them to be surprisingly versatile - especially with animal print. They add a bit of "warmth" to outfits that basic black otherwise would not.

Readers- What is your recipe for cold-weather work outfits?
