Work that Dress

Today, I chose my black dress and ivory tie-waist blazer.

Dress:  Target (Similar here)
Blazer: The Limited (old)

Tights:  The Limited
Boots:  Payless

Something about this outfit makes me feel very powerful, like I could take on the world.  To me, it's the perfect look for a board meeting, an office presentation, or for any event in which you'd like to project confidence and competence.

It's easy in its color palette and fit, which gives it a sophisticated edge.

Satchel:  The Limited (Sold out on-line)
Necklace:  eBay (Similar here)

Jade ring:  Vintage (gift) (Similar here)
Bracelet:  Vintage (gift) (Similar here)

The howlite beaded collar necklace looks a little bit like bones or animal teeth, adding a bit of fierceness to the look.

The printed tights add a little bit of a personal touch.

This is my version of power dressing!
