I was inspired by this post from Marion from Marionberry Style. You guys, she has such great style and her Friday posts are hysterical recaps of her life as a school psychologist. She recently posted this outfit and I immediately started thinking about how I can take this trend to the office. I decided this look would be office appropriate by using an article of clothing and an accessory. Here’s what I came up with.
On a side note, I decided to try taking pictures out in my balcony. I thought it would be a small step towards venturing outside in the real world. It had just rained the night before and I guess some water accumulated on my neighbor’s balcony upstairs….this is what happened.
Plop! Water drop on my head! I went back inside.
Top: Joe Fresh; Necklace: Kohls old (similar) Skirt: Banana Republic; Shoes: Target surprisingly comfortable! (similar)
Ha ha! Little UPS post it I forgot to grab

Haha, I’m cracking up over that first picture. Wouldn’t it just figure?! Anyway, LOVE that color top on you, it’s so pretty!!
I know! and the fact that my camera caught that shot was just hysterical! I was so paranoid that someone was looking out their window so I ran back in!
Love your blouse and necklace, so pretty!
