i'm stumped

cc · Marc Jacobs

are they wool? wool flannel?

this is probably not appropriate for the office but maybe something similar

maybe too girly for you but it could be cute for work.

did you wind up getting these? i think leopard shoes would look awesome, although i would feel weird wearing them in my office.

i have to run and do some work now but i'll look more later.

Here are some suggestions. The black and white stuff from Banana Republic is my favorite. Those shoes come in heels, too. I think the last outfit (from Ann Taylor) is SOOO cute! HTH~

didn't you say in one of your other posts that you have a black button down? I think that would look sharp with a skinny black belt (or a brightly colored belt). Then accessorize creatively. I think those leopard pumps cc posted would look great, if you have them.

or maybe something like thisover a button down. the design is a little wild, and might not be to your taste, but i like sweater vests.

or thisalso maybe a little crazy for work, but so cute over a thin sweater.

i don't know...maybe i'm trying too hard to be creative. is there something stopping you from pairing them with a jewel-toned cashmere t-neck and some funky earrings and shoes? or a thin cable-knit sweater? i know it's a little boring, but would look nice...

I don't have any photos but I wear my winter-white Max Cs like this:

- express cashmere 3/4 sleeve turtleneck with brooch and lace cami peeking out the bottom (these are both on major sale right now)

- hot pink button-up shirt, black belt, black pointy-toed boots

- deep-v theory cashmere sweater with theory lace cami under or button-up shirt underneath

- green cardigan, one side overlapping the other pinned with a jeweled brooch and belted with matching satin ribbon belt, cami under, caramel pointy-toed boots

or boringly, with random button-up shirt and black cardigan, black boots and belt

I'll let you know if I think of anything else.

PS - I love those Bakers shoes! I'm going to look for them tomorrow when I go shopping.

Hey cc, can you tell me which brand of shoes these are? They're gorgeous!

cc · Marc Jacobs

chineseassasin, they are "ovelia" by two lips. $63. i randomly came across them on zappos and now i kind of want them!

vanessa - i looked at so many leopard shoes before i bought those from baker. i think they are really nice considering the brand. and of course, they were dirt cheap.

ChineseAssassin · Nine West

Whoa...can't believe they're from Two Lips! Looks like a much pricier brand to me...I'll save them in my favorites and hope that they go on sale some day, lol.

honey · Gucci
