What I wore:
Earrings: Kmart navy tassel earrings
Jacket: Glassons orange jersey blazerTank: thrifted Target mixed print colourful printed tank
Skirt: Atmos&Here grey marle jersey pencil skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue
Why I wore it:
Picked a very casual outfit for visiting one of our offices that is always extremely cold with the aircon. It was a hot heatwave day, so a light tank and a jersey pencil skirt were all I needed, but I appreciated the orange blazer in the office, and I packed a scarf in my bag too for when it got really cold in the aircon!I felt the blazer and the navy statement earrings dressed up the casual outfit a little for another day in the office. I really liked the Luna blue Edie bag against the grey skirt an the blue in the printed tank too.
Didn't add a necklace, as I had the tassel earrings, and I felt the printed tank and orange blazer were enough of a statement on their own.
I much prefer this outfit to this one, when I wore the grey skirt and printed tank together but added a matching grey blazer. It's so much more fun with the orange!

What I wore:
Skirt: Jeanswest zip detail ponte pencil skirt
Shoes: Converse Chuck Taylor All Star low in black
Bracelets: the usual
Bag: Rebecca Minkoff Edie regular shoulder bag in Luna blue
Why I wore it:
First time I wore this silk tank Sheila gave me I worried about it getting stained being around little kids so much - not so many worries about that when I wore it to the office! This black pencil skirt goes with everything, but I thought that it matched particularly well with this top because of the tassels and black stripes. Again I didn't wear a necklace, I felt it would compete with the tassels on the top.The blue Edie shoulder bag doesn't match the blue in the print, but I thought it was close enough that the bag was a good accessory with this outfit.
Wore my casual Converse with this outfit for the office - they are comfortable for a long commute and I don't want to overdress, the majority of ladies in the office are wearing their Converse too!

Blue + orange is such a cheerful and dynamic color scheme (complementary colors), and of course I love seeing the shades of blue in the second outfit. Your knit skirt + Converse styling always looks great!

Oh I wish we were able to try things on at the opshops again here! None of them have changing rooms since Covid.

Ooh, that orange blazer is the perfect fit and such a great topper in this outfit, Mica! You look fantastic - polished and profesh! - and perfect for the office, right down to your Cons. So nice to see that silk top again! I might tuck the front of it in, to define your waist more? Love the blue bag with it! Thank you so much for the link-party.
ReplyDeleteI have not tried tucking this top in yet any of the times I've worn it - I need to try that next time Sheila! Thanks for the idea, and for linking :)
DeleteI am loving both of these office looks, Mica! Your bright orange blazer is a fabulous statement piece and I just love the color.
