Performed stand up during the Giggle N Grind burlesque show at the Improv Lab tonight hosted by Lucky Deluxe, so I felt I had to step my game up a little bit with some textured tights and some heels added to one of my favorite outfit combos. It’s kind of a running joke that I’m often dressed up more than actual women on the shows I do, but tonight with burlesque dancers performing on the bill it was a rare show where the women actually were more decked out than me. Well, until about halfway through their sets when that started to change a bit.

Decided to lady it up tonight for a late dinner and drinks with a friend who is about to leave town for a month. Unfortunately this bathroom mirror self portrait is the best shot I have of my look for the night. Based on a request I promise to do an entry explaining my current technique for building that cleavage.

Continuing the trend of actually doing some posts this week, here’s an ensemble I put together tonight.  I wore the skirt today to work but wore it with a black t-shirt and tennis shoes for a look that isn’t all that dissimilar to the one from this recent entry. After work I decided to dress it up a little, so I added the shirt in this picture, a tank from Charlotte Russe that I bought last fall. It is a little too flared at the bottom for me to wear it often because I think it widens my hips and doesn’t tend to layer well over skirts, but I liked how the cardigan sort of plays it down.  The necklace is new, got that this week at Old Navy.  Shoes are Toms.  
I have worn a skirt now every day since friday.  Interested now in making it sort of a game to see if I can keep it up and for how long.  I didn’t post a picture of yesterday’s look but it was just my purple kilt with a black v-neck t-shirt which is a pretty common look for me.

So on my first day of work at my new job, my new boss told me I could wear whatever I wanted to work, there’s no dress code. 
Today I wore this.  Smooth sailing, it seems.

Another long skirt, got an awesome deal on this one at a store called Wasteland that is a really upscale resell store. This is a Free People skirt that the store tag was still on and it retailed for $150 and I got it for only $35.
I feel like the colors actually worked better together in real life than they do in the photo, but looking at it now I would probably try a grey cardigan next time, or maybe a navy blue. Same with the shoes but I was eager to wear something open toed to show off my pedicure, which got me compliments tonight. I was also pretty proud of my ability to maneuver around in the heels for the whole evening.
