in fashion

I apologize, but this post is going to be short because I am fading, FAST. SO so so exhausted and almost went to bed last night without writing this, but decided to do it for y’all.

Today marks the return of Feel Good Fashion. It’s been a while, but the good news is I have  VERY strict conservative business casual wardrobe I have to follow at my internship. There will be a lot of outfits to photograph!

This week I started out with a new favorite outfit I bought a few weeks ago while buying some new business casual pants. We had our ID pictures taken and I wanted to get the year started off on the right foot!

Here’s where everything is from and the approximate prices (don’t have the receipts on me):

  • Shirt: Gap $16
  • Pants: Gap Perfect Trousers $60 (I’m obsessed with these pants!)
  • Shoes: Ellen Tracy (I think) leather with snakeskin print kitten heels $40
  • Necklace: Old Navy $12

I loved this outfit! I was so comfortable all day and I just love the pop of color from the blue and the contrast of the necklace against it!

Can’t wait show y’all more outfits! It felt really good this week to focus on dressing well and being motivated to keep truckin’ on the weight loss train!

Did you wear any outfits this week that made you feel good about yourself?

The perfect trousers are amazing! The modern bootcut is good too and so are the perfect khakis!

Cute cute! I work the exact outfit that is in all my profile pictures minus the sun hat and felt so great all day.

Definitely a power color!!! I hardly ever wear nice outfits to work. lol. But on my sleepiest day I made sure to wear a dress so I looked more together than I felt!
