From 2008-2012 I worked in various aspects of the construction industry. This meant a lot of jeans, company polos, and Carhartt.
Then I had the world's most unflattering uniform in the airline industry. Lots of baggy navy blue.
And now I'm an office manager.
This means an entire shift in my wardrobe. Still overrun with denim and faded tees, I have pretty much been wearing the same thing to work everyday: my navy pants from my airline uniform (a tad frumpy but OH SO COMFY) and a cardigan.
My mom even told me it was time I spent some money putting together a work wardrobe.
Sideswept jersey dress | Coldwater Creek $99-109 + 25% off
This dress comes in sizes 4-24, not to mention petites sizing. I pretty much love everything about this dress:
-Flattering draping across the bodice
-A color that goes with so much. Need to add a blazer? Black, red, brown, white, etc. would look great.
-So easy to accessorize!
-Made of jersey material, meaning no wrinkling, making this a good dress for business travel or to keep on hand just in case.
This dress just has a lot going for it. I'm finding out that work dresses in general are fairly expensive and that I can't live in Old Navy as much as I'm used to. Yes, I can pick up a jersey dress from ON, but it's going to be a thin jersey, as opposed to the thickness of the Coldwater Creek jersey. Not all jersey dresses are equal.
With this dress I could wear any number of my usual cardigans, purses, or shoes. I can't say that about a lot of the work dresses I've looked it.
