Today's look was business casual focused. The main item is my staple black skirt. Every girl/lady 20+ needs to have a black pencil skirt in their closet. This one is a Banana Republic find and is great because of the detail. It has pleats and pockets in the front with a belted waist - giving it some additional style. These skirts are perfect for all weather, wear it in the summer with sandals and throw it on in the fall/winter with tights and boots.
Paired with the skirt, I chose a slate blue button up from Ann Taylor Loft. Normally I leave it untucked with dress pants or jeans but I dressed it up today and tucked it into the skirt. Tucking it in gives the outfit a clean look, exposing the detail of the skirt. Cuffing the sleeves also softens the look. Such simple apparel calls for some jewelry so I went with a new piece from Brighton. A thin long necklace would also work, but I chose something shorter and a bit heavier. Don't you like it? It was a birthday present from Mom :) xo. I'm a summer girl so I like to hold onto summer till the very end. Seeing as its still hot and humid, I chose a pair of basic black sandals that had black rhinestones on the straps.
Tip: Versatile pieces are going to make your closet go a long way!
