Everyday Bombshell- Back to Workwear

topics: plus size fashion, workwear, talbots

After a 3 month vacation from employment, I officially re-entered the corporate workforce on Monday.  My first day on the new job was exciting on several levels.

  1. Full time employment is a good thing
  2. I was able to break out all of the corporate-y outfits that have languished in my closet since leaving the old job
  3. New co-workers haven't seen any of my clothes...so it's like everything is new
Here's what I wore for my first day on the job:


The muted watercolor print jazzes up the structured style of this dress from Talbots.  I contemplated breaking out a pair of new black strappy pumps, but decided to play it safe with a pair of flats.  Tomorrow, I'm going for a pair of fun shoes.



Mixed metals provided a tough-girl counterpoint to the girly-girl vibe of the dress.  

The Outfit:
Watercolor dress- Talbots
Mixed metal necklace - c/o Lane Bryant
Black leather belt- Gap Outlet
Ballet flats- Payless
