Add a Little Lace

It’s not always easy to find cute women’s professional clothing. You want to be taken seriously, but you also want to be able to express your style. I love this outfit because it does just that. The lace and embroidered appliqué give it a delicate look, and the pairing of neutrals and black give it a professional edge. I bought my embroidered top at Express at their last big sale (around June of 2014). It was originally around $70, but the sale marked it down to $25 (and then I had some rewards points that brought it to $15).

I dressed it up with one of my favorite pairs of shoes that I bought at Belk’s during a vacation to North Carolina. They are by a company called French Connection and they are super comfortable and go with just about everything. The original price of the shoes was close to $200, but Belk’s was having a huge sale and they came out to less than $45.
