Teal Capris with a lace blazer

Teal Capris, Lace Blazer, Sandals
Top : Truworths
Pants : Woolworths
Blazer : Noblewear from a chinese store
Shoes : Legit (Similar availalbe at Shoe City)

Bangles : Various

I am so taken with the white capris I bought that I indulged in a teal and red pair as well. 

I went through 4 different options of tops to wear under the lace blazer and for the first time, I wished it were 15 cms longer this morning.  I first tried a tank with a gold sequence design, then a grey spaghetti strapped top before settling on this dusty pink with rose border top.  Although our work environment is fairly casual, I always feel a little awkward if my shoulders are exposed - yes, very old school I guess.  I'm also of the opinion that unless your have arms that look like Michelle Obamas or Regina Kings, you need to rethink it twice. 

My hairdresser is having a special until the end of the year, colour, cut and blow with an option of a R100 top up of 6 foils for R500 ... since my hair is going to need a little neatening, I may indulge in the foils - I'm thinking Summer holiday - time for a little lightening around the face.

Well, its off to an interesting start at our office today - so let me get on with the day.

Hope yours is fabulous.

  6. Wendy, I don't think I've ever seen a lace blazer before - love yours! While I don't have any problem with sleeveless at the office, I agree that bare shoulders are probably a bit too casual for a business environment.
