office attire


bodysuit: h&m, wool pants: banana republic, platforms pumps: ninewest, clutch: marc by marc jacobs

proof that i actually do dress somewhat 'business-y' to work.. every once in awhile.. haha. with the cooler weather i could finally dust off these wool pants i bought from BR years back before their sizes changed and i was still considered a size 0 by them as opposed to like size negative. seriously the current size 0 at banana swallows me. i mean i'm small.. but i don't think i'm THAT small. the clutch was a 'gift' from the hubby after he had a weekend trip with the boyz in Vegas.. winnings = gift for the wifey. when i got it i totally didn't think it was going to be that big.. but now i totally love it.

also lucky style spotter is holding a contest to win a tag heuer watch! i have a feeling the contest will go on for awhile since their denim challenge has been up for what seems like months.. you may have noticed from all my looks that i lack a watch (amongst other things).. so vote for me please! and enter yourself in too!

    how sweet of your hubby! the clutch looks fab. i think that size is great. just that sometimes i get lazy carrying that kinda size around without a handle to hold or strap to go over my shoulders. then it kinda kills my mood to shop/hold my boyfriend's hand cos one hand's occupied!

    You know, I think that your work is really cool... I would only not like it to have to dress business-y to work.. Is there a strict dress code at your work?
    Wow, the sizes at BR must be really big... Sometimes I'm swallowed by size zero too, but sometimes I don't fit in it either ;)
    How nice of your husband to think of you and buy you a present!
    You have to register or something to vote at the contest, don't you?

    Simple and elegant, very nicely put together. That clutch is massive but after my initial distaste, I'm kinda loving it! Does it ever become a pain to carry though?

    good job to the Mr.! what a great guy. I bought that clutch but didn't know how I'd feel about carrying it around with me all the time since it's so big. I wish I had kept it now!

    And i know what you mean about BR sizes. it's crazy how it has changed. sometimes I'll try on the size 0 pants and it will fall down to my ankles!

    Thanks for entering! you're entered in my giveaway too! :)

    I've been searching for an oversized clutch all this time! (And ended up with....what 7 bags as of today?) Still can't find that perfect giant clutch. Love yours! Maybe I'll send mine to Vegas, haha
