  1. I love the look with shorts and love how you adapted it for work!

    So, random question: Do you use a self tanner? Your legs are a gorgeous bronze color!

  2. I love the three styles (if it's not too much work, you should do this more often). Yay!

  3. I am loving incorporating shorts into dressier business looks. Nice job matching the look and providing alternatives for body shapes or even seasons!

  6. Did you get the pants from Express on sale? Silly question, I'm sure, but did you get them for only $10 on their own or with some coupons/deals? :) I love them!

    The shirt is just gorgeous on you!

  7. Thanks everyone!!!

    Teri, I don't use self-tanner. I'm Cherokee Indian so my skin is pretty olive and of course it's summer so I have a bit of a tan (but I do wear SPF!) :-)

    Mandy, the pants were SUPER-duper on sale from Express. I got them a couple years ago during one of those sales where they are just trying to get rid of everything. I don't love wide-leg pants on me, but for $10 I figured why not? :-)

  9. Anonymous, I got the black skinnies last fall but I think they have a really similar style in the store right now.

  11. Love that you were able to give this 3 different looks. Love the blazer and ruffle top.

  12. ekaty, I got the shirt this spring, about 5 months ago so it would probably be fairly hard to track down. They have a shirt in their fall line that is the same color though:

  13. I love how the shorts look and hope to be able to pull it off one day! But for now, I would go with the wide leg pants because they are the most flattering for my body type - I am learning that makes all the difference. Lovin the options today!
