06172014 – Like a Bumble Bee

I’ve been on a roll lately in digging through my closet and finding some pieces that have gotten lost in the mix. Keep reading to see more photos of this outfit and some shopping ideas I’ve put together for you that were inspired by this look <3

This outfit was something I put together while having a difficult time figuring out what to wear to work. I work in an office that’s extremely chilly thanks to the air-conditioning always being on high despite how warm it is outside.

Putting on a blazer and wearing pants was definitely in the mix since wearing a full on jacket is out of the question in June. To make this look ‘summery’ I cuffed the sleeves of my blazer as well as the bottom of my pants.

Continuing with the summer theme, I opted for yellow pants rather than black dress pants. This played up the look colour-wise but kept it all office friendly still.

Throwing on a pair of brogues seemed to close this outfit well. It was almost too perfect that the only pair of black brogues I own have teal soles. The brightness of the soles and the pants added the right amount of colour to what could have been an all black and white outfit (which there’s nothing wrong with but it would look more fall/winter friendly instead)
