Work Your Work Wear Challenge. Week one. The one without the work.

That's right, I'm doing Alison's work wear challenge without a work place. This is SO a year too late for me. But I decided that this would be the perfect opportunity for me to practice styling down outfits and to shop my closet. Check out what the other great bloggers are doing also and give them some love, we have two bloggers who are brand spanking new to the blogworld this week!!!

Shoes to Shiraz | A Lovely Little Wardrobe | R Squared | Confessions of a Frumpy Mommy |

I like Design Stuff | Positively Learning | Quilty Joy Joy |
Once Upon a Time & Happily Ever After | Looks Like Lauren

As for me, this is what I came up with this week. I did have errands to run and such, so it was nice to have something to get dressed up for. I'm actually putting in a couple mornings "at" work this week so will be able to use the work challenge to it's fullest. Stay tuned for more ensembles next week!

The one with the bright blouse, black dress pants, statement necklace and leopard print shoes.

The one with the sheath dress with a white button up underneath, statement necklace and bright flats.

Linking up with Alison also!

I really like how you layered the tshirt under the dress. Not something I ever think to do but it looks great. Also love the back of the green shirt, a nice little surprise on the back!

I love everything about the first. I really need a purse that I can wear across my body. I know you aren't wearing yours like that in the pic, but it looks long enough to. Super cute for errands!

OH I love your first outfit, that shirt looks great on you! Kicking myself for not signing up, darn! I love the graphic you made, perfect!

I adore the way you put together outfits - seriously, styling should be your second career! Looking gorgeous!

If I didn't have to go to work, I don't know that I would ever change out of comfy clothes. I love dressing up, but comfy clothes are just, well, comfy. Cute outfits--I'm absolutely in love with the color pairing on the first one!

After checking out how you put together these outfits, you definitely need to come visit my closet - I need your H-E-L-P!! I can compensate your time and talent with coffee and conversation :)
Thanks for linking us all up :)

So glad you're participating in the challenge regardless of your work changes. Also love your flair and creativity, Deena. Pops of color with the shoes and bag are perfect. Also, love the lipstick.What brand and color, please. :)
