Ladylike sequins

What I Wore to Work Today: Mon, May 2, 2011
Sequin tank top: Goodwill
Cardigan: Goodwill, $1 Thursday
Skirt: Goodwill, $1 Thursday, refashioned
Belt: Xi, came with a shirt
Shoes: Target (new!)

I bought new black shoes for the office and I enjoyed them with this ladylike outfit.  A ladylike outfit with sequins!  And a skirt that is shorter than it was when I first refashioned it, thanks to the weight gain and the need to wear it higher on my waist than originally planned.

I chuckled at the shoes when I first passed them — “Those are unattractive!” I said — and then I kept drifting back to them as I tried on other options.  I might buy them in beige or light pink, too, both of which would work as a nude with my skin tone.
