to the rescue


American City Wear maxi, Ross
necklace, Forever 21

      I don't wear my maxi dresses enough, so I was excited to wear one to work for the first time on Thursday. It was surprisingly comfortable! I considered wearing my new mint necklace but decided to go for a simpler look this time around. 
   Erin talked about the magic of camisoles recently. I'd like to add that I've found a basic sports bra invaluable for making outfits work-appropriate. Most of the time, I wear camisoles to deal with too-low necklines or gaping armholes. Wearing a sports bra provides the same kind of coverage but eliminates the sweaty layer around my torso, which makes warm days in a non-air-conditioned workplace more bearable. The only problem is that some of my sports bras are a bit tattered for wearing under work clothes - so now I'm on the hunt for some inexpensive cotton ones.
