I know I know, I am late. I am always late, and so is the plight of a working mother. That said, late is better than never, so here we have it, last week in the working with style world of mine.
First, there is this little gem of a skirt. I love it to death, even if it DOES give me horrible muffin top. The good news is, now that I’ve transitioned it to winter, and put the leggings underneath? The muffin top is much less glaring, which is good because I just love this skirt! (And NO that is not my bra! It is just my bandeau top. Sheesh!)
And then, with fall/winter also comes my collection of beloved leggings/tights. Be ready to see a lot of legging shots over the next few months because WHO doesn’t love a good legging?
Finally, proof that picking clothes out when cold is equivalent to shopping when hungry – you make BAD decisions. I picked this out the night before, when I was FREEZING to death (we like to keep the bedroom cold which sucks until you are all cozied up in bed!). I was also wearing knee socks. Knee socks, long sleeves, big fuzzy sweater and Uggs = sweating in the office, even in the winter. Oh well, I looked cute enough:
Now, let me see what you wore! It’s your turn to link up with us over at Liberating Working Moms!
And be sure to tweet about it too!
I just linked up with @Babe_Chilla over on @LiberatingWM to show off my #WorkingWithStyle outfit. Come check it out! http://bit.ly/vVPwvH

Usually I’m freezing in here but I guess they turned on the building heat finally. Noted.

Love the leggings, and the floral pattern on that skirt is super cute! Where did you get your blue leggings?

the blue ones are old ones from American Apparel but H&M is another favourite

I can’t wait to see more tights! I think this series will drive me to find a job with a less conservative dress-code! Sass it up!

I’m so afraid of leggings…being short and curvy. But you have me thinking about giving it a try. But at 5’1″ it’s hard to find a dress/skirt that is the right length. Sigh.

The thing is, you can wear any skirt with fun leggings. Even if they just peak through as you’re walking or sitting, they are SO MUCH FUN!

Love the sweater! Where’d you get it? Also, cool leggings! The only ones I ever find here are black or gray which = boring!

Oh I so fucking do, It’s all the extra ass/hip fat that gets pushed up and over my pants when I try to wear my pre-pregnancy pants but, who can afford new pants?
