Work Wear Wednesday

So I've decided to officially make 'Work Wear Wednesday' my new project showing you can look professional and cute in the office while still being age appropriate. I picked up this dress at Gap this past weekend when they were having a big 40% off sale. Let's be real, The Gap is constantly having huge sales so there is no reason you should ever pay full price for anything at that store (I also ended up getting this white seersucker dress for only $20 from the clearance rack). You can never own too many LBD's and I gravitated towards this one because of the eyelet detail at the bottom of the dress, plus it was lined which is one of the things to look for when buying a good quality dress. 

Since this black dress wasn't very spring-like, I decided to accessorize it with some teal jewelry and bright bag to give this simple dress a little more personality. Also this is the first time I've finally been able to bring out my d'orsay flats that I bought a few months ago. I definitely think they are going to be my go-to shoe for spring. If your office is chilly, you can easily drape a cardigan or blazer over this  dress to keep you warm but still looking stylish. 

Side note: after viewing these photos it is apparent that my St. Maarten tan is officially gone... ugh!
