Nick’s coworkers had a holiday party earlier this month, and this is what I wore. With the sequins and the coated denim (that kind of look like leather pants) this outfit would be perfect for New Year’s Eve, or as I like to call it, MY BIRTHDAY! 🙂 For the past few years, I’ve hosted a birthday party for NYE/my birthday. I haven’t decided what I’m going to wear for this year’s party but this outfit is definitely on the list.

Here’s the almost-blooper: I don’t know that I really consider it a blooper because I smile like this all the time! It’s just my face 😉

Blazer: Banana Republic | Sequin Tank: Old Navy | Coated Denim Jeans: Banana Republic | Shoes: Christian Siriano for Payless | Earrings: Old Navy | Clutch: really old, I have no idea where I got it!

I think I’ve found the perfect dress. I wore this outfit last week to my day at the clinic and I got so many compliments from the nurses, mostly about my shoes. They kept telling me how nice they looked and kept asking if they were comfortable. I’m sure that comfort is really important when you’re a nurse who’s on your feet all day.

I really like this outfit because it’s a nice mix of high- and low-end pieces. The blazer is from Banana Republic and the dress is from Target. That counts as mixing high & low, right? This dress is so comfortable that I’m probably going to live in it for the rest of the summer. And I added the blazer as a professional touch. I felt really official at the clinic!

I love a dress that you can class up a bit and wear  to the office (or a health clinic) or you can keep it casual and wear it out for lunch or lounging around with friends. It really doesn’t get much better than that.
