Professional Bling


A few weeks ago I stopped by my local Kohl's and picked up the Elle Embellished Ruffle Shirt.  I love how it looks just like this one from J.Crew, but is long sleeve and more than half the price!  Such a bargain, don't you think?  I am a huge fan of button down shirts.  I am always grabbing one out of my closet for work, a night out with friends, or simply hanging out at home and running errands.  Button down shirts are a simple way to look put together without trying too hard, but the embellished collar on this shirt adds an extra layer of dressy and sophisticated bling, while not going too order the top with it. This shirt is the perfect go-to piece that can take you seamlessly from work to happy hour.  I love it tucked in with a skirt or untucked with a pair of ankle pants for work.  For only $25 this Kohl's find is very versatile and stylish.  

Note: If you plan on snagging this adorable top, it runs extremely small! I typically wear a zero in button downs from J.Crew or Banana Republic, but had to go up to a 6 in this shirt.  It runs very small in the shoulders and arms, so I highly recommend ordering up a few sizes!

How do you incorporate embellished pieces into your daily style?  Have you tried this embellished top from Kohl's?

I actually kinda love getting dressed up in work attire.  Coming up with alternatives to the typical black or navy suit.  The traditional business attire isn't necessarily the norm in most offices anymore, so you have a lot more freedom to show your personal style in the office.  Today I am linking-up with long distance loving for another fun week of Friday's Fancies showing off our favorite office looks.

How do you add a bit of your own personal style, yet stay professional for work?

Working Girl Tote

Since I just graduated college I have been on the hunt for the perfect "working girl" tote.  A bag I can use to carry my laptop or iPad plus all the miscellaneous items I used to carry in my backpack.  Whether it's lunch or just a trip to Starbucks, I need a bag that looks sophisticated and professional while also being cute and preppy.  And once I get a "real job" and become a working girl I want to be prepared for my first day!
