Going Corporate












Wearing a suit to work always makes me feel like a powerful lady - and I think it makes everyone pay attention a bit more when I speak. This comfy blazer with the liner that lends itself to cuffing goes with everything from pencil skirts to jeans, to dresses and slacks. I wore this top because it adds some spice to an otherwise corporate look and it makes me hungry for creamsicles and hot summer days. It's equally versatile as a camisole for work outfits or an easy top for lounging in the park and drinking cold green tea. I'm sure you're familiar with the lip gloss as well - but if you're not, run out and buy it immediately. It smells like sweet sweet strawberries.

Blazer: H&M (similar); Blouse: Forever21 (similar); Slacks: The Limited; Shoes: JC Penney; Lip gloss: vintage boutique downtown (buy it here)
