Have you ever worn a t-shirt to work? I think tees are perfectly acceptable for dressier outfits – if they have some special details. This one has a bubble hem (that I tucked in) and ruffles around the collar and goes as great with pencil skirts as it does with jeans.
Tee and heels, LOFT
Skirt and belt, J. Crew
Earrings, Anthropologie
Sometimes in the morning I really need a shot of inspiration. I keep all my J. Crew catalogs for moments like that because I love the styling and detailing that goes into every outfit – and bam, there it was, a green dress with a blue belt. Outfit born.
Have you sent your Color Challenge submissions yet? This month’s color is aqua, and I want to feature YOU! Send me your links and photos!

Really loving that green skirt, especially with the blue belt. Way to go J.Crew– now hire my BBF as your spokesperson!
You look very work appropriate even though you’re wearing a tee! It’s all in the styling
Have a great weekend, Catherine!

I am all about pairing a t-shirt with work appropriate looks. That green skirt looks great with that top.
You are so cute. I love the color of your skirt!

I think the t-shirt goes perfectly with the skirt. Great way to dress it up. And the belt is a cute touch.

Here in Portugal people don’t dress up for work as much as in other countries, but in both cases I can find many ways to make a tee work! For instance, I really like wearing a tee with a blazer on top!

I love that idea! Blazers are my favorites – I’m definitely going to try one with a tee!
Love this skirt and the way you really dressed up this tee! Looking so pretty! Hope you are having a wonderful day!

It was a perfect Thursday outfit – I’m definitely dressing up my tees again!
Just found your blog and I love it! I haven’t worn aqua in the past week so I think I missed the color challenge. Such a bummer! I’ll definitely be participating next month, though!

Thank you so much Bri! I’m glad you found it too!
I love that skirt! I’m always so jealous of people who get to wear skirts to work – it gives you so much more to work with! I wish I could participate in your color challenge, but aqua is 1 color I don’t have in my closet
Guess I’ll have to wait until next month!
I can’t wait to see your outfit next month – I’m already thinking about the color!
I think a tee looks perfectly acceptable with this outfit! I think the details at the top make it fancier!! Such a cute look!! I would love for you to visit my blog sometime!!
