Kovet, Keep, Kut List this week

KOVETTING...
Well I'm coveting a lot. Of course I am because my birthday and any other gift giving holiday is months away so when my BDay comes around there will be nothing on my wish list cuz all the spring collections are out of stock....Woe is me!! Anywho... These are a few pieces I've been kovetting to add to the wardrobe.

What's Working this Week

As we quickly transition from "winter" to official spring, I'm just as quickly ditching the thought of tights and showing a little more leg at work.  I have some who think work=panty hoes no matter the weather but I'm not one of those people.

Reed Krakoff "Boxer tote", Nine West "Sweetgirl" pumps via Nordstrom, J Crew Star-dip ballet flats, J Crew Memo Dress in Warm Sienna, Banana Republic button back shirt in black
 STYLE ME BY NUMBERS...
#1 A clean cut, no frills dress with sleeves is something I would wear everyday for work if I could.  This one is a classic camel color that looks good with most skin tones but is also available in about 5 other colors which I may break down and buy as well.  So look for a dress with a length right above the knee and that fits well but not tight for the office. #2 This look is easy for all year around wear so worth the investment.  Think in layers! This can be worn alone or with a cardigan over or a blouse under as I've done here.  #3 I have an office shoe and a commute shoe. I work where the streets are paved with bricks which hurts any possibility of stilletos so take a neutral flat instead of sneaker that you wont be ashamed of if you run into your boss on the way in.  #4 Top off the look with a statement bag. It doesnt have to be designer but with an outfit like this you can go for color or go for a stand out print.
