The Business Casual Skirt Suit
I love blazers, but I've always found them to be a bit too stuffy to wear at work all day. My solution is a pencil skirt with a matching cardigan-- you'll get a softer, more business casual look while still maintaining the "matchy-matchy-ness" of a full suit. I'm not sure if it's appropriate for the corporate world, but it works for most office environments! Don't forget the pretty blouse. :)

How do Target's cardigans wear after multiple washings? I just ordered my first one after being inspired by how cute you've looked wearing different Merona cardis. (You seem to have, like, 10 of them!)
ReplyDeleteI do own quite a few of them! Haha. They're great because they come out with new colors every season and always seem to go on sale for about $15 a piece (but at full price, it's still inexpensive!)
DeleteAs for washing, I usually wear my cardigans a couple of times before washing them, unless I happen to be sweating a lot that day. When I do wash them, I put them in the washing machine on the delicate cycle and dry on low heat. They seem to stand up pretty well to multiple washings, as I've had a few of them for over a year now with no noticeable changes!
that would for sure work for me at work, too. its so cute on you, you pull of the pencil skirt way better than i can!!

great skirt.... love the gold shirt you wore with it. :)
ReplyDeleteGreat skirt, now i'm trying to get one of those cardigans but they are unavailable in the store. Are they true to size or fitted? Any feedback will be highly appreciated. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThey are pretty true to size, and definitely not too tight at all. They fit just right, like a classic cardigan should! Even after a few washes, there's no shrinking.
DeleteYou can get them online here, and even better, ON SALE!: http://www.target.com/p/Merona-Womens-Essential-Cardigan-Sweater-Assorted-Colors/-/A-13746848
Let me know if you have any more questions! :)
Thanks a lot Megan; will order them with the link. Have a great evening!
