Hey curvy girls all over the world,
As you all know I like to get the most mileage out of my clothes as possible. Which is why I do outfit remixes. I don’t know about others, but, I wear my clothes more than once even on this blog. I do it so you can see the myriad of ways to wear what you already have in your closet without feeling like you need a new wardrobe every month.
A little over a year ago Jessica London gifted me this striped blazer. It was one of their pieces that I thought was modern and chic. I’ve worn it with jeans numerous times (Seen Here). While in a work outfit rut, I decided to wear it over this cobalt blue dress that I got from Faith21 Plus back in the winter time (Seen Here). I thought the pairing made for an interesting sharp office look. It was one of those work looks that made me feel like yes, I run this.
In case you’re thinking that’s a little too much cleavage for the office, don’t worry, I keep safety pins in my desk drawer to make sure I’m cleavage appropriate. On a cooler day, I would wear a cami under the dress. I was actually thinking about doing a few work wear posts for the spring/summer seasons, but, the lovely ladies at Madison Plus have been doing a great job with their summer workwear series that I didn’t feel the need to. Check out their site for a few looks HERE
What I’m Wearing
Blazer: Jessica London (Gifted)
Dress: Faith21 Plus
Shoes: Jessica Simpson

That outfit is FABULOUS! You totally “run this” in it. In fact, it almost makes me wish I didn’t work from home so I could wear something like that.
Love that it was gifted! I have fallen in love with J. Jill and would love it if they gifted me with something. Anything :).

One of my favorite things about your blog is the actual commentary you provide. It’s always relevant and informative but not boring – a hard blog combo to pull off. From your Editor’s fashion challenge (LOVED that!) to your reporting on the trends, your blog is one of the best fashion blogs I read. And this outfit? Girl, I’m searching for that blazer RIGHT NOW!
Alissa says
