No matter what office you work in (or don’t work in), this lace sleeved blouse is for you! It’s one of those fun twists on a boring blouse that can be styled for your corporate life and also on the weekend. I mean, look how fun the sleeves are! Right? They aren’t too sheer either to be inappropriate for the office. Trust me, the sheer is chic and looks even better in person.
If you’ve been reading my OOTDs for awhile, you know that CeCe is one of my favorite brands. I love that I don’t have to worry about quality on any of their items. I also love that they have a fun approach to office-wear. If you’re looking to stock up or do a little refresh for fall, I’d start by browsing what they have available at Nordstrom. They also make my favorite A-Line skirt which I feel fits more body types than a pencil skirt! It’s a classic too so you’ll be wearing it when you’re 60!
These jeans are by far my favorite – I don’t buy 3 pairs of the same denim for no reason! The wash is a little blue-r and darker than the other wash I also own but I love both. I sized down knowing all denim stretches a little. If you’re unsure about sizing, order your regular size and then a size down too. Keep what fits best.
They are designer jeans therefore a bit more of an investment but my first pair of Paige has lasted since 2010 (and I still wear them). The cheaper pairs I’ve tried over the years are already out of my closet. They just don’t last or fit (and flatter) as well as a good pair of designer jeans.
I’m all about bringing you guys budget friendly pieces but I also think about the money you spend over the long term. There aren’t a lot of designer items I would recommend but these jeans and some designer heels are two that come to the top of my mind. So while the items I post might not always be $15 (but are sometimes!) I’ve always got your back in terms of what is best for your wallet in the long run! I also regularly do sale alerts to round up the best deals so always check back on the blog!
Let me know what you think!
