I’m recovering from a surgery (I’m ok!) and wanted to share what I wore today that was comfy but still made me feel put together!

I tucked in a black tube top, part of a 3pk I bought a while ago from Shein. It’s thick enough to cover my abdominal binder (so I’m happy about that) but not too thick for the fabric to feel heavy. It was in the 90s today so I needed to still feel cool.

The shorts are from PRETTYGARDEN on Amazon. I have never tried this style but I quite like them. They’re so flowy!

I don’t always prioritize comfort in my outfits! This feels really nice. So now I’m rethinking my entire wardrobe 😆 hope everyone had a nice day and wore something comfy too!

So excited about this career pivot. Got compliments everywhere I went today, including from my interviewer/new boss and I'm over the moon.

Hey guys!

So I guess we hit the algorithm or something, because we have been slammed with creeps, OF, etc lately, and as you know that is NOT what we want here!

So I have made this a restricted subreddit.

If you are legit and want to join, just drop me a message! All genuine people are welcome (and wanted)! 🙂

New England is turning up the heat, and yet I wear long sleeves. 🤷‍♀️

Trying to find some decent slacks, but utilizing the black jeans until I find some trousers. Any brands recommend would be appreciated!

Came across these pics and wanted to share! I stepped out my comfort zone back in December and wore color AND pattern in the same outfit 😆😆 normally I wear pretty neutral colors and mainly solids. Also first time wearing colored or patterned tights.

My thoughts on the fit if anyone cares:

Sooo it was supposed to be a monochrome / same exact color fit… it was not lol. The shoes and tights matched perfectly but of course the dress didn’t lol. I think it works tho..? Let me know.

The dress was not really the most flattering for my shape but I didn’t hate it. However it was clearly NOT the dress in the pic on Shein 😭😂 (yes I know that can happen shopping online and especially on Shein. I took the risk!) Color is totally different and the fuzz is different. I think even the fabric. I didn’t love this fabric - I feel it looks messy and I couldn’t figure out how to get it to look better. I thought I could just smooth it over with my hands 🥲 haven’t worn it again but I also haven’t had an occasion to. I have the link to the dress but it is sold out.

The tights were also Shein but not sold anymore. Super cute and pretty decent quality.

Heels from Amazon. Really quite comfortable and a fun color to have! Still have the link if anyone is interested.

Overall, I actually felt pretty confident in the outfit and I think it turned out ok for buying from Shein and Amazon 😅 for my next birthday, I would love to experiment again, but maybe with better stores 😆

Sorry the photo isn’t full body, but any ideas for styling this dress? I want to wear it to a botanic garden for a photoshoot. I would love to have jewelry with flowers, any color, and matching shoes. But I’m not sure what style shoes would match this.

Some recent outfits for work, for reference I do compliance and licensing for a cannabis company

I am trying to build a more professional wardrobe as my role is becoming more of a management position. First thing I need is another belt, but I also am looking for more shoe options as well if anyone has any recommendations. I’m open to any suggestions 😊
