What I Wore to Work

Here’s my outfit from last week. Ann Taylor leopard coat, worn with a casual, off the shoulder grey sweater and my new fuschia cordoroy jeans

The jeans are by AG and I was so excited because I was able to get them for just $33 after my employee discount at Saks.

The purse is also from Saks and is by Prada. I added the charms which were bought during a trip I made to Hong Kong.

The fur stole is from the Limited, and the over-the-knee boots are Guess. This weekend I have to work wahhh…

Style Diary: What To Work to Work

What I Wore to Work

At the beginning of each fashion season, it starts to feel overwhelming at work. The meetings are endless, the event planning intense, and the press pitches constant. During the first few months of the season, I live, breathe and dream work. And I obsess about it just to stay on top of all the details. February and March for instance, are filled with 10 and sometimes 12 hour days. To keep me motivated and looking forward to another work day, sometimes I use fashion as a fun way to brighten my load.

The most memorable part of this outfit was the exciting moment when I discovered that my dollar store, colored tights perfectly matched this skirt that I had nearly forgotten about. The skirt was purchased at a NJ Korean boutique and I couldn’t wait to dust it off and wear it to work. The tights just gave it new life and energy.

I wore it with an H&M puff-sleeve blazer and tie-front blouse that I bought from Lord & Taylor during their post-Christmas sale. The hat is vintage. I think the last time I wore it was in the ’80s.

The shoes are patent leather Nine West and the tote bag is Juicy. I love that it has side pockets to conveniently carry my cell phone and blackberry.

How is work going for you these days? And does fashion ever give you that needed something to look forward to? For more on what to wear to work, click here. To see a quick view of my other style diary entires, view and follow me on Pinterest!
