As a corporate woman, I attend customer meetings on a regular basis. My colleagues, mostly men, are typically dressed in suits. When I first started attending meetings I would ALWAYS wear a suit to match my colleagues. As much as I love a well fitted suit, I never felt comfortable wearing a suit to my customer meetings. I found alternative outfits to wear. Today's outfit being one.
The top is feminine, which I love in my office outfits. The J.Crew trousers are straight, cropped leg. This makes the pants look tailor for my petite body. It's a little difficult to see, but I'm wearing a wool camel color blazer under my coat. Instead of wearing a matching blazer, I like to wear different textures and colors for business meetings. The same holds true for my heels. The outfit is anything but traditional, but still looks professional for the office.
Today's outfit is part II of one of my favorite looks on my blog, the original post is here. This season I've been layering a lot with this J.Crew Blazer and different scarves. The blanket scarf is my current favorite. I've had my eye on the coveted red tartan scarf, but I think I missed the boat. I'm unable to track down one of those scarves...that's still available.
Hope everyone has a good weekend. See you on Monday.
