The other day I was on the bus and I saw a girl that was dressed really nice and she looked totally cute. Kind of like this:
And I thought to myself, I want to dress like her when I'm that age. Then she turned around and she was probably my age! I usually dress in slacks and tshirts to work. I don't have to dress up. I don't see clients on a daily basis so it's not important to wear nice clothes everyday. On days I go out into the community I do wear nicer clothes but I'm running out of nice clothes.
I wish I had these lovely options from Nordstroms in my wardrobe. Now, I might not wear them to work, but I would love to wear them to dinner. My first order of business is to get rid of all my pants that taper at the ankle. They just make my butt look huge! I rather wear wider legged pants.
I think these pants are more flattering to my body shape.
And any of these tops would be flattering too. I think I just have to realize that I'm not 20 anymore and I'm not in college and start dressing like a grown up!

I hear you. I went through the same thing a few years ago. I have a job where I could get away with wearing jeans every day, if I wanted to. But I make a point of wearing skirts and dresses at least 3 or 4 days a week, just because it makes me feel more professional, and honestly, makes me feel more attractive, and a little more adult. I try to buy one or two really nice pieces a year, and round out the rest of my wardrobe with cheaper items.
ReplyDeleteJust cause you don't HAVE to dress up for work, doesn't mean you can't. Unless your work is particularly physical.
