What do you wear to fit into the funky vibe but also look presentable enough to meet the boss??? Is this OK???

Your outfit sounds really cute! I am not sure about the belt either...how about this one from BR? It comes in silver

I love the outfit, but not that belt - the curvy lines and cutesy tone just don't fit - what about something really narrow and strappy wrapped around twice? It might fit the line a little better than a big heavy belt...

I agree with the others about the belt. A sequin belt or scarf tied around your waist would be cute, but the heart on that one is a bit much, especially with the outfit you've chosen. Maybe add a bit of color to the outfit through your belt & purse. I like dizzy's suggestion to wrap a thin belt around your waist a few times; that would echo the straps on the shoes. That tank is really pretty!!

ooh, I like the idea of a thin silver belt wrapped a few times...anyone seen one??? I tried a sash/scarf around the waist but it just looked like too much w/ the shawl I'm wearing too. And I think i will add color w/ the purse too. :)


Thaks for the ideas ladies :)

Personally it isn't my style, but if you like the way it looks on you then go for it.  I also think that gold or bronze would work better with the brown/tan/white shawl thing. And maybe even the teal tank top would work, I love teal and brown together.

don't freak out, whatever you wear i know you'll look great and wow everyone!  personally i like your original idea better (dress over jeans -- though i am partial to that look).  i agree with fp about the color combs gold/brown/teal would look awesome.

I love the outfit & i'm sure you'll look great - belts are my weakness so I'm no help with that, but I have to say - that event sounds like SO much fun!!!! How cool. Let us know how it is.
