Working Girl

Banana Republic Trench and Blouse, BCBG Sweater, gifted BB Dakota Silk Pants, Zara Pumps
House of Harlow Sunglasses, Tory Burch Bag, Necklace Made by Me

Monday through Friday I can be found in slacks and skirts which is the main reason why in most if not all of my "outfit of the day" photos I'm wearing jeans (come Saturday and Sunday all I want to wear is my most comfortable denim). With that said, this Alexander Pant by BB Dakota is completely versatile and not only are they the perfect working girl separate but I have already worn them to a few events outside of the office as well. If you're in search for the perfect and affordable silk pant, look no further! The fit is flattering, they are beyond comfortable and bonus points for pockets! I'm already debating my need for another pair.
PS: While I'm mentioning my work attire I must say, I own this BCBG wrap sweater in four colors (beige, black, blue and grey). I love it that much!

Very nice, I've recent;y become very drawn to the combination of tan and black. Also, I have the same trench, a "congrats" gift to myself, but have a tough time incorporating it into my jacket rotation for some reason. Thanks for some inspiration!

Wish I could look that fashionable at work! You look so pretty! Love the sweater and can see how you could have it in multiple colors--so practical! Is it still for sale? I want one! :D

Alicia said...

@Sheila - thank you! I'm wearing it in black today ;) I have not been in the BCBG store for awhile so I'm not sure if it's still for sale. Purchased these sweaters a couple years ago!
