Daily MelWear: Berry Professional

*Disclaimer: In the interest of full disclosure and authenticity, I will tell you that after seeing these photos, I promptly went back to my room and put on black tights before leaving for work. So. Yeah. Pardon the glare of my legs. Wowza!

I know the post title is a little corny, but I couldn't come up with anything better.

This cranberry skirt is a recent purchase from Gap's clearance section. I think it just barely works for the "just above the knee" dress code regulation. Other than the necklace, I think everything is dress code perfect! I took the necklace off when I had to run an errand at the main medical plaza, so I did good.

I've had these shoes for a while but I bought them before I lost the weight so they're a little too big now. Time to get some heel grips, because they're really cute and I don't want to get rid of them!

That's all I've got for today. If you haven't suggested any questions for the professional blogger interview feature, send some in! I've gotten some really good questions from some of you and I want to make sure that this feature answers YOUR questions, not just mine!

Have a great day!  

Today's outfit:

Daily MelWear: Let's Polka!

So today is Polka Dot Day over at Everybody, Everywear! I don't have a lot of pieces with polka dots but I found this dress in the clearance rack at Target over the weekend, so I snagged it real quick. I have lots of different styling ideas for it!

We have our bi-monthly board meeting tonight which means I needed to dress as close to "in code" as possible. Technically the polka dots are out of code because patterns are supposed to be small enough to appear solid from a distance. I think that's my only violation today though! Yay for me!

I know all of you are just dying to know if I got away with my shoes and short (in my opinion) skirt from yesterday's outfit (because I'm just so fascinating that it's all you can think about, right? Right? Anyone?). The answer would be yep! I don't think my boss even looked at my shoes all day to notice the peep toes and I pulled my skirt down often enough so she didn't notice that either.

By the way, did you see that a winner was picked for the Shopbop Giveaway?

Today will probably be another really busy day at work so once again, I'm not sure I'll get around to visiting blogs much. I miss you guys!

Hope you're all having a great week so far!
