Work to weekend- shooties


Happy Wednesday! Today I'm sharing how I've worn a pair of shoes for both work and weekends. I typically don't wear the same shoes to work that I wear on the weekends. We are not allowed to wear open toe shoes (some peep toes are allowed) or sandals of any kind to work, so that limits me to pumps, dress flats and maybe dressy booties in the winter. I'm not a  "pumps with jeans" kind of girl and during the summer, I'm putting my sandals and open toe shoes to use on the weekends and giving the pumps a break.

9 to 5 Style- boots







Welcome to 9 to 5 Style! The third  Monday of every month Jennie of A Pocketful of Polka Dots and I will showcase a theme featuring our individual takes on a professional look. Our aim is to inspire and show professional style does not have to mean boring and without personality. We hope you enjoy our 9 to 5 Style!




How did it get to be the third week of January already?! 

This month Jennie chose boots as our theme. If you work in a super casual office, then you can get away with boots a lot easier than if you work in a conservative environment. For a conservative environment, you need to choose a sleeker boot with a heel, and not too many buckles or hardware. The easiest way to wear boots to the office is with a skirt or dress.
