Day 5 - Kaye - Bold Color. Bold Plaids. Too bold for the office?
10:11 AM
I.WENT.TO.WORK.LIKE.THIS. I felt so “New York”…so
Miranda Priestly… or at least Andy…after her transformation, walking into the
office today. (If you’re not a Devil Wears Prada movie fan, please hit the
little “x” in the corner to close this page NOW! LOL! Kidding. Sorta.)
Here....just in case...
I digress.
I know we’re only five days in, but I must say this is my
favorite outfit of the year so far.
I recreated this look for work from one of my favorite
church looks in 2015. I wouldn’t dare wear a floor length skirt to the office
(or would I?).
Back to the outfit: these pants are just adorable,
though, right? I am in love with prints, especially plaid. And if you keep
following, you’ll see that I’ll wear it often throughout the year.
I paired it with another turtleneck, my favorite thing to
wear in the winter. I wonder if that has anything to do with me being an 80s
baby? I digress. My black leather-sleeve blazer (gifted) and ankle boots
rounded off the look perfectly.
And as a bonus, because it’s freezing outside in Atlanta
today, I added a leather hat and scarf to the ensemble, to keep me warm.
