A couple of years ago denim couldn't be worn at the office, not even for 'casual-Friday'. Today it's more accepted and I style my denim shirt with my black blazer and my black leather skirt. To keep it balanced I choose minimalistic accessories and jewelry. Nothing edgy or funky, that's taken care of by the denim! This denim shirt is made from a very thin cotton, almost a chambray. It's an old one from Levi's but I'm sure there will be a huge variety in stores for spring! … [Read more...] about Denim For Work

But here in this skirt the width creates more of a … [Read more...] about Funky Leather Skirt for the Office
