Office Meeting to Cocktails

Office Meeting to Cocktails by confectionarystyle featuring aldo handbags

Hey everyone, sorry for the long absence. One word for you, thank God its Spring. One of my faveortie trends this season, has been patterned pants. I am loving the pants on this outfit, they are bright and unique, but still wearable. This is the perfect outfit for a day at the office or at an internship, heck even coffee or brunch with friends. I truly love this. Its so put together for the day time, but with a little bit of sass---with the printed pants and lips print blouse. I love the heels total bad ass. Red lips and shoes always make a girl feel confident. 

Then for cocktails with co-workers or a night with the girls; all you have to do is switch from the prim and proper jacket to a nice motorcycle faux leather vest, let your hair down and you are ready to paint the town red in style. The accessories from the day time still are appropriate and statement worthy for the night.

If I had a dream wardrobe for back to school this outfit would be it. I am seriously dying wanting to own a high low skirt, and honestly the blogging community is not making it easy these things are all over the inter-webs. I like to be comfortable but cute. And this outfit is what I would wear if I had just a little bit of motivation to actually dress up in the morning instead of only on presentation days. So what would you wear if you were still in school for the first day?

There is nothing like the 4th of July I must say. The colors of Red, White and Blue everywhere, the parades, the barbecues, (ahh hot dogs and burgers fresh of the grill with some ice cold cola). Then the magical fireworks at night. This is what summer is all about my friends. In true summer style and in Celebration of the birth of the Greatest Nation on Earth, I have a style that let you show your American pride (whether you are American or not). Just incorporate red and white, I have it here both on the dress and hairband, add some blue (in the shoes and bag), and the most important thing the stars which are the earrings and you are ready for a good tooting old fashioned American party. Have fun.
