Creative Professional


Dress - Old Navy / Blazer - Target (old, similar here and here) / Flats - Payless / Necklace - YuniKelley (similar) / Watch - Michael Kors (old, similar)






Sometimes when I get dressed up for work, I want to show that I'm a professional but also a creative.  To do so, I stick with classic shapes but add in some personality, like the floral print of this blazer and a fun necklace.  I got a new boss this week, so I wore this for his first day in the office to show him I mean business.  Of course it was about twenty degrees cooler that day (silly Spring) so I also wore tights.  There are 70's (!!!) in the forecast for the next two days so no more tights for this girl!

  15. I'm loving the creative professional girl! I never thought of it that way. Just because it's professional doesn't have to mean it's boring. Adding the floral blazer definitely gives this look a fun, creative touch! :) Rita @ www.CoastWithMe.com
