when working late, comfort is key

This past week was a long one.  I’ve still been trying to kick this cold and I’ve been really busy at work.  So, a few mornings that I knew I was going to have to stay late and didn’t have any important meetings or dealings with upper management, I really tried to plan an outfit that would be comfortable all day, as well as far into the evening.

Tight skirts out, annoying-ish collared shirts no, tights that make me feel like I’m constantly holding my breath forget about it.  Not that I own that many uncomfortable clothes… but I was going for the feel like you’re in your pjs, look like you’re business casual look.  This is one of those outfits: loose, non scratchy knit top with a fitted but comfortable wool skirt, tights and sturdy heels, very few accessories.

About

What would Krissie wear? Well, jeans, a really cute t-shirt and boots for one. But what I wear to work at my uber corporate, conservative New York City office is an entirely different story. But that doesn't mean it has to be boring. Welcome to my corporate wardrobe story: what I wear and how I do it for little money and lots of style.
