Work OOTD | Peach, Nude & Black

This outfit is in part due to my obsession with the color peach and in part to the laziness of a college student during her first week back to class. Needless to say, I heard my alarm and then proceeded to hit snooze again and again.. and again. I had this look played out in my head with the shirt tucked in and the outfit in general being more "put together" looking. When I tried tucking the shirt into the pants it looked super goofy. Because of it's loose fitting style, the shirt added about 10 pounds to my stomach -so of course, that was a no go. I was strapped for time so I just left the shirt untucked and went with it. My point is if it looks a bit disheveled and you can't place why that is -that would be the reason. 

Shirt - MauricesThis is the piece that this whole look was centered around. Once I put in on I realized it was a lot more loose fitting than I originally expected. The top by itself seemed a bit too casual for work so I added the blazer.


Blazer - MauricesTalk about a blazer made for me. From the ruched quarter-sleeves to the slim fit, this is my favorite blazer I have ever owned.  I love the one button look as well. It adds a girly touch to the jacket. 

Dress Pants - Macy's
These are known as my "I want to be comfortable but I don't want anyone to know it. They are the only pair of dress pants I have that aren't flared at the  . I wear the, when I get up too late or I just want to be relaxed at work. The catch to these pants is that I have to wear really high heels with them. Usually when I wear high heels I have to be more awake so I don't trip on everything. So there ya go! They are comfy AND double as a "keep Melissa awake mechanism
...." Or something.
