Weekday woes turned into weekday woohoo's!
A new week has started and short of dragging myself out of bed and propping my eyelids open with toothpicks, I decided that this week I would get motivated and try to be just a little bit more chipper and industrious at work.
Already aware somewhere in the back of my mind that I was going to be late for work, I threw open my wardrobe and began to look for something to throw on, that didn't require any ironing and that would look good :)
Sound simple enough? When you're on the clock it can actually be quite difficult. Anyhow I managed to throw something together. Have a look at what I wore below.
2. Black cropped blazer from Forever 21- AED 120.
3. Black ballet pumps with gold bow detail from ALDO- AED 100.
This necklace was a real steal because if you feel the turquoise and gold carving are a bit much and want the classy sheen of the gold but a simpler look, then you can just flip the chain over and wear it. The underside of this accessory is a plain bronze and looks great as a little bit of oomph for a something basic or a little more drab.
5. Dull silver bracelet with turquoise inlay from the Syria stall at Global Village- AED 35.
I chose to accessorize the bright gold necklace with this dull silver bracelet because
a) Both accessories have turquoise inlay.
b) The bright gold and dull silver bring a lovely contrast to this fairly minimalistic ensemble.

And that lovely ladies is what I wore to work today. The dress is a tad short to be super corporate so lucky me that I didn't have any meetings to go too. What do you think? Be sure to drop me a message and let me know!
Arivederci until then!xx
