With a the prospect of a new job, inevitably comes the understanding that you'll need to spruce up your wardrobe a wee bit. I was told that for my new job, I have to wear high heels everyday. Yes, you read that correctly. High heels EVERY single day. (So I don't want to hear about anyone complaining about their work wardrobe, unless you have to wear both highs heel and panty hose every day, in which case I don't envy your situation.)
With a small budget (more like a paltry budget), I took advantage of all the great sales going on at the end of June. As the stores made their way for fall clothing and eliminated their spring and summer looks, I plumped up my wardrobe with colorful basics.
I purchased:
- pink blazer (similar to this one from Rag & Bone below), only mine was much more affordable (from the LOFT)
- green pleated skirt (from Nanette Lepore)
- royal blue pencil skirt (from The Limited)
- pink bubble necklace (from The Blue Door Boutique)
- red ostrich oversized bag (from The Limited)
- file folders (from Target.)
I purchased everything (except the bubble necklace) on major sale or with gift cards (yay!), so I ended up spending very little. Cheers to a new work wardrobe!
