Work to Play + TBB Linkup

One of the questions I asked myself before adding a piece to my closet is whether it can take me from work to play. With busy kids there are so many days we are moving straight from work to after school activities which means small window of opportunity to change.  It really helps to have pieces which work well for work but can quickly move to play by just switching up a piece or tow.

Pleione tops are one of those pieces for me.  These tops are so versatile, come in so many different colors and patterns and really work well dressed up for the office.   

Pencil Skirt

I initially ordered this Halogen skirt with the exposed zipper but it just didn’t feel right on me.  I traded for this one and it worked much better in both length and fit.  A black pencil skirt is pretty much a staple in a working girls closet!  If you are in need of a “back to school” tote for work, I recommend this adorable striped bag.  Not only does it work with so many outfits, it holds my 15″ Macbook effortlessly!

Y’all already know how much love I have for these old shoes and really dread the day they are worn out!  So far I have not found a worthy replacement but thinking these might be worth a shot.  I also tossed in my favorite leopard cuff for a little pattern mixing.

City Shorts

This top works equally as well with the city shorts.  While I love my J. Crew Factory shorts, the fabric of this pair is a little dressier.  They are currently an extra 40% off which bring them under $20 and I’ve ordered in two more colors to try.

Gladiator Sandals

Dropping the heels for my sandals will take me to an after work parent teacher meeting with ease.  This pair is from last year but a very similar pair is still in stock.  I was super pleased with these for two years in a row in both quality and comfort.

And seriously, are you guys sick of seeing this clutch yet?  Y’all, it is just so cute and I have been so happy with how easily it works with so many different outfits.

I would love to help you earn the fun clutch or the striped tote for yourself by hosting a virtual Stella & Dot party! Contact me at sjanac69@gmail.com if you are interested!
