outfit for company holiday party
Permalink Closed

i have a company holiday party in a couple of weeks that is "business casual".  we work in a pretty creative industry so i have a lot more flexibility than most.  i will be meeting a lot of office people for the first time that i usually only talk to on the phone that help me out a lot with my work. 


i would really like an excuse to get this sweater:


and possibly wear my miss sixty choc. brown dance boots with it...


any idea for bottoms?  skirt?  gaucho?


tia!

I think that outfit would look great with one of these skirts:


$88/ea

LMonet... you would laugh if you could have heard me when i reopened this post and saw those skirts:
ME: "ooo those are pretty" in a flabbergasted 5 year old's i just saw a new dolly in the window i want really really badly voice


pretty... but i am wondering if they are too dressy?

mmmm that does look hot...


will poll co-workers to see what they are planning on wearing and then decide...


thanks LMonet- you always come up with the best stuff!


 


edit to add:
doesn't the skirt look entirely different when "still"?



i still like it... but i just thought it was strange!

I just wanted to tell you that you don't need an excuse to buy that sweater!  I have it in gray and it's fabulous - it's sooo soft and pretty.  Get it!  You'll make it work!

good to hear!  i have lusted over it in the store and hinted to BF to buy for christmas... but he is visiting the LV store for christmas so i am not getting much from him this year other than that!  so i'll get it for myself for christmas! 


LMonet- the skirt is only available in size 10!  i'll check the store though...


FP- i this skirt too....

Well, crap!  Hopefully the store will have it - if not, I think this one would be equally as awesome:

Hmmm...........I think I like #1 better - better contrast of materials, but the 2nd outfit does look cozy (I LOVE LMonet's skirt too).  Definitely get the sweater!

i've seen the BR skirt in person and its just not my style... but thanks for the suggestion...


i went to BR today and looked around and couldn't find anything i really like there to go with the sweater.  i may just end up getting a new pair of dress pants in a carmel color since i don't have any and go with that...


i'll let you know what i come up with...

I like this idea too..


I've actually been eyeing this skirt for a while! (stylebakery featured it a little while back) I just have too many similar skirts ...
