Atleast I Tried


 Remember when I promised myself and you guys that I'd do a nice outfit for work this week, well, this was my attempt to that, or should I say failed attempt. I know what you're thinking; 'this is a cute outfit' (why thank you, I think it is to :P). But, minutes into wearing it and clicking pictures, it dawned upon me that it may not be very 'work appropriate', atleast for the office I go to. The cropped blazer and ballet flats were a failed attempt to formal-ness (there I go making up words again, it's a talent I tell you). So, I changed into something boring in the next 30 seconds to avoid being late in my first week of work (I wore jeans and a long cotton top if you may know :S) . 
But then, atleast I tried, right?


Wearing:
Dress: Envy Me, cropped blazer: Hong-Kong, belt: Bangkok, flats: Linking Road, Bombay, Hobo bag: Accessorize, bangles: thrifted


I tried the look with the belt over the blazer (above) as well as under the blazer (first photo); which one do you like better?


This dress is 100 % polyester and I'm not a very synthetic fabric person, but the print (Hello! Floral!) and the beautiful ruffle detailing along the side made it to yummy to resist buying!

Thanks for stopping by,

Love

  6. I really like this look, but maybe not for your first week! It's always good to see what everyone else is wearing first... I'm the youngest at my corporate job by about ten years, so I can usually get away with more youthful but still "corporate" looks!

  7. i ve been going to office everyday and i feel bad because of the boring clothes i see and wear... though i work in an MNC and amidst a very young crowd we still restrict ourselves to western formal... seeing this outfit in my office would ve been a visual treat in itself !!

    Cheers!!

  9. Considering that you did Fashion Management, you're interning/working at a 'Fashion' place and I think heels with the outfit would have done fine for you. But anyhow I love love love the outfit!

    Oh and I also mentioned you on my blog.

  14. This outfit would've been great for any work place, actually, with a couple extra inches on the hemline (though you have great legs so you can make shorter lengths work too). Love the bright summery colors!
