It had to happen sooner or later ...
The first day of work has arrived!
The weather is still good and the temperatures are only a bit lower. So, what to wear at work?
Not the dresses that have spent with me the summer : too light weight, too sleeveless, always too something!!
Here you are my solution:
A too short dress on a pair of slim trousers!
The dress, after a wrong wash ( how silly of me not to follow the directions! ), became too short to be worn alone and has remained sadly hanging in my closet for a while .
Since it was a good quality item, I didn't want to throw it away, but really couldn't find a good Idea!
Now, worn with the right accessories
it has a new life...
...and I have something perfect for work!
So, I suggest ... never, ever decide too in a hurry on the matter of clothes!!
Dan, When you have such good taste, anything you buy will always be right,, even if it shrinks! Love the tunic, now!!, over the pants. The sandals are stunning and rich, and In love your rings, and ruby necklace. OH, and that fabulous bag!
ReplyDeleteBrava!

Thanks for all those compliments, Elle!The only new thing is one of my rings, which is a present from Greetje.
DeleteI made the necklace from gemstones last year and my sandals are Geox...
P.s
My bag is from gum!
Well, you may have made a mistake washing the dress, but you've found the perfect solution! I love it over the slim pants! Great work outfit! You look fabulous! I love the yellow background of the photos!

A new combination which is quite unusual for me!
DeleteI'm loving your "first day back at work" outfit. It will be my first day back at work after my break tomorrow, so I've got an inkling of what you were feeling. It will be a sleeveless dress for me, though, as we are having a mini heatwave here in Belgium. xxx
ReplyDeleteVery glad that the heat has reached Belgium at last! Have a happy week ...
ReplyDeleteLove the block heels and the purple top! Great fall start.
ReplyDeleteI would love to hear from you.
