I’m having a love hate relationship with this outfit today. I love the feel of this dress, it is so comfy and airy but still warm enough to wear in the mornings, and the color blocking is done very well. On the flip side, it might be a little too casual for the office (for my taste) and while the color blocking helps make my waist look smaller, it makes other things look larger – lol.
I love taking pictures with Eric – I have to remember to bring my camera into the office one day so he can actually utilize something better than one of our phones. As you can see regardless – he makes me laugh.
I picked up this dress mid summer from TJ Maxx and I haven’t worn it often – I have issues wearing pieces that hug my body, but I’m trying hard to step out of my comfort zone just a little bit so off to work I went today.
This sweater stayed on quite a bit, it was my security blanky today!
Here’s a few shots of my accessories and shoes – This watch was a gift from a very dear friend and I’m totally in love with it. I have worn it everyday since receiving it.
I had to take a pic of my hair too – it’s been so hot the last few weeks I haven’t worn it down in ages. I cannot wait for the weather to catch up with the season.
This was my one jewelry splurge from my Disney trip, doesn’t it look grown up!
And lastly my favorite set of Toms – I have to get my husband to fix the heel – I didn’t realize it was pulling away until I took the pick π¦
Happy Wednesday!
Hi Sarah, I think this dress looks fantastic! If you wanted to smarten it up you could try adding a great structured blazer? I find ones like the moto styled numbers cuts in at my waist and helps balance out my chest while keeping the blazer aesthetic and smartening up many of my looks for the office!
Looking forward to reading more!

Thanks Jess, Up until recently I’ve shied away from blazers in an attempt to not look like a football player, but with newer styles and different fabrics coming into fashion I am working on adding one or two to my winder capsule.

I know what you mean! I have irritatingly broad shoulders but I really love a good waterfall jacket as well! I think the key is to avoid heavy fabrics – shoulder pads! (Which still horrifies me that they are being used) and boyfriend fits! Otherwise I think I’d feel manly! Haha π xxx
