Impromptu Dressing

Thursday, May 10, 2012

 


 
 * V-Neck - Zara * Blouse - Thrifted * Knit pants - NY and Co. * Pumps - Call it Spring * Earrings - Forever21 *


Well HELLO!  I have been completely slack on my outfit posting, but of course for good reason, I graduated two weeks ago. *Happy Dance*  I didn’t realize that school consumed so much of my time, but now I have so much time to do WHATEVER.  First things first, I have to get back into my blogging groove, secondly start working out again, third take a sewing class and lastly knock of some of my crochet projects I have neglected.  In between all of those things I will be applying to graduate school and looking for scholarships.  That sounds like a lot but I am happy to stay busying doing things that I love.

So today’s outfit was impromptu, I woke up and threw something on.  Even though it’s starting to warm up here in Miami lately I have been dressing for my office climate.  I really hate being cold, so I decided to layer up today.  Plus we have been plagued afternoon thunderstorms all week.  I am sure this outfit would be really cute with a pair of Hunter rain boots.  Maybe this year I will invest in a pair, I say that every year, lol!    

So do you guys dress for your office climate or the outside temperature?

Cute love the yellow :-) I've been on a yellow hype myself. Man! I don't why they have to crank to AC up so much. Sometimes I look ridiculous with all my layer looking like I'm heading to the north pole LOL. I keep a jacket in he office for days when I dress like a Floridian should lol

Hey there Missy...I believe I said it before but CONGRATS on the graduation!  I love the houndstooth and yellow!  I am a sucker for a black and white print paired with any article of color.  I have a similar blouse and and a similar sweater in orange.  I will recreate! 

 I for both but mostly for the office climate and this is why layering is a must.  I freeze in the office all year round.

I always tell people to dress for the climate and layer! It's easier to remove or add a piece than to bother with changing the thermostat...because with a group of people..no one will be  perfectly happy with the temps. Hearing 10 different people complain about the temp, everyday, almost drove me insane at one point, being that i'm the one in charge of making the adjustments. 
I love your look today and you are looking very svelte, if I may add!

So glad to see you back and CONGRATS ON GRADUATING!!!!  That is such awesome news!  I remember graduating college and randomly freaking out waking up in the middle of the night thinking I forgot to turn in a paper.  LOL.  Love your houndstooth blouse and great yellow cardigan!

Really cute outfit, love the yellow sweater!!  I dress for both, I have a coat in the office (with a heater) and I do wear sandals and shorter sleeves for the outside when it's warm.

Congratulations on your graduation....YEAH!
I usually dress for my office climate; although I keep a sweater at the office and I have a space heater. (Me hates being cold!)
Cute outfit. I like the sweater/blouse combination.

Congrats on your graduation girl! That is an accomplishment. As for the outfit, love it. Esp the blouse. I dress for the outside temp AND the office. Layering is key, but you don't need me to tell you that right. Love the little doggie in the background. Looks like a cute Yorkie. I've recently gotten into thrifting and love it.

Really cute outfit. I always make sure to bring a cardi with me to work. It's usually freezing in the office.

Oh I see your cute doggie in the last pic. So much like my Levi!

I love that sweater with the black and white blouse.  Too cute!

I always dress for the office even though it's always hot outside (I'm in WPB).  During the summer I wear short sleeve or sleeveless tops and pack my blazer or cardi in the car.  I throw it on when I get to work so I don't melt on the way to work! LOL

 Thank you so much and send me a pic if you recreate this look!

 Thank you!

 Thank you Jasmine =)

 I know what you mean about the complaints, I am a property manager and we control the AC for the entire building.  It becomes a little aggravating when everyone wants it to be set so they are comfortable.  Our thermostats stay between 72 -74 degrees no exceptions unless its a special circumstance.

BajanBeauty on May 24, 2012 at 11:10 AM said...

 Thank you Frannie!!! I am have become a complete bum now and I love it, lol.

BajanBeauty on May 24, 2012 at 11:11 AM said...

 Thank you! We don't allow heaters in my building, but I hear people still sneak them in.   I always find out about them because they trip the breakers, lol.

BajanBeauty on May 24, 2012 at 11:11 AM said...

 Thank you Sonya! I hate the cold too and having to be cold for 9 hours is ridiculous!

BajanBeauty on May 24, 2012 at 11:12 AM said...

 Thank you, it is one of my favorite thrifted pieces.
