Oh My Eyes!

If you have been window (or online in my case) shopping, you’ve likely noticed the crazy prints and splashes of color. As someone who embraces this concept year-round, I love it!

At the office, it may be a bit challenging, but I am all about taking a staple piece like a black dress and pairing it with a bit of craziness.

I have a tendency to wear black far too often at the office, so I have more versions of the black dress (little or otherwise) than I can count hanging in my office. I particularly like finding pieces that can be worn during the office and then out to dinner with friends. The lace detailing in this Cynthia Steffe dress I snagged on sale kicks it up a notch on the wearability (yes, that’s a word) scale, as I would wear this to a nice dinner or of course another day at the office. Granted, I don’t know about you, but my outings have been kept to a bare minimum recently! That being said, I’m always ready! 😉

Here’s the outfit rundown:

Shoes: Alice & Olivia
Handbag & Bag Charm: Gucci
Scarf: Givenchy
Dress: Cynthia Steffe

I have a tendency to always be cold at the office, so I never head to the office without a scarf or coat. Not only do they keep me from shivering at work, but they can also be a great way to liven up my look. Having some crazy shoes on hand can also help…

I go in phases where I avoid wearing heels to work, so I’m all about mini wedges like these Alice & Olivia crazies and flats. Thank God, fun flats are a big trend this season!

Of course my most favorite part of my outfit is always a good handbag, and I love Gucci for humoring me in the evil eye department. Pearls are also huge right now, and I love the subtle incorporation. Givenchy was also inspired by Egyptian culture last season, so when I saw this eye of Horus scarf on sale, I just could not help myself.

From bags to summer coats and shoes, there’s so much fun to be had. Happy shopping (and hump day)!
