through the years i’ve learned not to reinvent the wheel. if something works it works. today’s ootd is a perfect example of that analogy. wardrobe basics just work when put together right. what’s more simple than a black pencil skirt? but pair it with a brown striped blouse, a snazzy belt and spectator pumps this office appropriate outfit is anything but boring. so next time you’re wondering what to wear to the office think no further than a skirt and blouse. it works every time.
