I'm the only person who does this. Everyone else pretty much just wear jeans.
Fortunately, now that I've been there for a while, this is expected of me, and not dressing up would probably garner comments like "What's wrong, where are your heels?"

ReplyDeleteLoving this outfit!! And I was the same way at work, except it was every day ;) And if I wore flats they were shocked (but I wore them a lot so I don't get it :p )

ReplyDeleteI'll be ahppy if you check out my blog too=)
Well it's probably because you look so lovely when you dress up! This floral high low skirt is so gorgeous and have I told you that yellow looks fabulous on you? Because it does. Have a great weekend Lydia!
ReplyDeleteLoved that skirt the first time you showed it off and that bag, I need to head to tj maxx! I never find anything there.
ReplyDeleteHi, please see my new site. Check out my next before last entry there. If you think it's important, please pass it on.
ReplyDeleteThe skirt is lovely on you! Definitely take any opportunity to dress up!

Its the same for me. I always dress up a bit and if I'm in jeans...which is rare..everyone is asking me why I'm so casual.
ReplyDeleteThe skirt is very pretty and I especially like it in the last picture where it looks a bit windblown and a bit flamenco.
Love the skirt! It's very flowy and feminine. The windblown picture is great. I probably am the most dressed up at my work. Everyone seems to wear jeans all the time.
ReplyDeleteNice skirt and top.

I feel like this outfit is sort of like a perfect goodbye to summer outfit (even though I know you guys will still have warm weather for a while there) - all the pieces say "summer" but there are some hints and tones in that amazing skirt. I hope you guys all had a good lunch.

haha aww, well, props to you for taking initiative to dress up when everyone else won't! ;)
ReplyDeleteYou look great! This outfit is so warm and inviting, and I love the asymmetrical hemline of that skirt. I like where you took pictures, too~ so green!
Okay whilst reading the other comments I have one thing to say. Where are you all working that you get to wear jeans to work!? I (as a former tomboy/athlete) would LOVE to be able to do this indiscrimantly.
ReplyDeleteEver since starting my job-a long time ago now...- I've grown into all the "dressed up" wardrobe only to find I actually dress up more than my colleagues... oddly enough they can pull that causal-but-not look which I am now trying to manage.
So from my side if you can wear jeans and be casual do it. But if you can dress up for a meal do that too!!!
this outfit is lovely the colors are so fun the skirt is gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteI love the fact that even though everyone else wears jeans you strive for more and set your own bar.
ReplyDeleteThink this says a lot about you :)
oh and it seems like you have an audience
ooo la la! I am head over heels in love with this entire outfit! I also love that you get dressed up despite all our jean clad co-workers. High five me!
ReplyDeleteThat bag is wonderful! And the last photo is gorgeous...

Your skirt is beautiful, I like the print. The same happens on Fridays at school, pretty much everyone wears jeans and the school t-shirt, I never buy the t-shirt and rarely wear jeans to work, so whenever I have one of those bad days and I go in jeans everyone is surprised and ask "where is your skirt?"
ReplyDeleteyour clutch really stood out to me, it's beautiful! :D

Still a little sad that we aren't skirt twins. It looks great with the bold clutch.
ReplyDeleteThis is one of my favorite photo locations. The rocks look so cool and they remind me of Central Park!
