Work Outfit: Mustard Yellow Shift Dress with Blue Peeptoe Wedges
A couple years ago I probably wouldn't have picked up a shift dress like this, but there are a lot of more-fitted ones around now that they've come back into style! I think the older I get, the more styles I enjoy (which can be a problem when you like clothes because then the wardrobe just keeps getting larger.) This yellow dress should be a super versatile year-round piece though, so I couldn't resist it. Mustard yellow pairs with so many different colors too. This time I went with a pair of blue wedges to contrast.
I actually wore this outfit during headshots day at work. They brought in makeup people and everything. They did my makeup very natural-looking. I tend to like either a little more on the eyes or on the lips, but my skin looked great!
It's been a little cool here in Georgia for this time of the year. How would you style this dress for fall? You think a collared shirt would layer well underneath it? I might have to try!

dress: forever 21 | shoes: xappeal - rack room shoes | necklace: great grandma
I apologize for being a little absent from the blogiverse but the majority of this past week has been spent with family because my grandma died. So I was up in Illinois last weekend and catching up with work the rest of this week. I'm ready for a day off because the past little while has sucked. At least I was able to make it up north to be with my family last weekend. I don't have a lot of time to sit around and mope though. I'm distracted by my new crazy puppy, Riker, and work and that's probably a good thing.
Other than that, things are fine and I'm looking forward to fall festivities. What kinds of fall things are you most looking forward to? I'm excited for tights weather even though Riker will probably jump on me and tear up my favorite pairs. And soup and roasted vegetables. And all pumpkin-flavored things. Plus my birthday is next month.
Have a happy Friday and happy weekend!

You look great in your knit mustard yellow Forever 21 shift dress. It contrasts nicely with your hair and eyes. I think it would look great layered over a top having a Peter Pan collar or turtleneck in the same pretty blue colour as your xappeal shoes when the weather gets cooler. Roasted vegetables and pumpkin flavoured things sound yummy.

btw i love this workwear! cute colors to spice up fall. we don't have autumn here in my part of the world, but if we did, i would really get crazy with layering and all the intense colors like burgundy, indigo blue, etc.
