    I love this look! What a great way to make the work wardrobe staple a little more feminine. I wish the pencil skirt and I were better friends.

  2. KC says:

    IN LOVE with these. Especially the Cyan/Black little number in the middle. Nice job Belle!

  3. Ali says:

    I love when i I love the cheapest one the best! Thanks for introducing me to ASOS, Belle – I never would've known about it without this website! I have a thread-jacky question that I was hoping you or one of your wonderful readers may be able to answer. I scored a pair of missoni target tights, and they are a really cool navy-whiteish pattern. I have NOOOO idea what to wear them with. Navy scares the life out of me . I should've brought this up when we discussed tight-rules last week but I didn't think these tights would give me such an issue until my battle was lost this morning and i went with a boring old standby outfit.

    I feel like a real old lady confessing this but a Talbots catalogue came in the mail to my house yesterday and I actually liked lots of what was in it. Elegant and classic. HORRORS.

  5. anna says:

    quick question: for the white option, what would you style this with for fall/winter….thanks and love your blog

  6. Belle says:

    a camel cashmere sweater.

  7. anna says:

    thanks for the suggestion….love it…a post i'd love is ways to style a t-neck sweater….my winter uniform and i'm desperately in need of new ideas for how to rock it….

The Find: A Versatile Sweater Jacket

It’s allegedly spring. However, for every minute of sunshine, there seems to be an hour of rain and gloom. So while I’d love to wear lighter spring pieces, it’s time to bring on the layers.

Business Casual Outfit: Linen Closet

And just like that, it’s April. Summer is almost upon us, and the retailers are filled with linen wares. Now, you know that I am usually unwilling to wear linen to work due to the wrinkles. But in this post-pandemic world, perhaps my mind can change.

The Range: Spring Blouses for Work (or Zoom)
