Can we just agree that this Dex polka dot blouse is the cutest? Seriously, so adorable with the little bow shoulder tie ups. Just melts my heart. I love the cute-sy detail but also that the piece is feminine and classy, making you still feel like an adult. It truly does a great job of balancing trendy, cute, feminine and professional look all in one blouse. The adjustable shoulder ties are a major plus for me, as I like to make sure everything is secure especially if I am bending over or working with little kids when I visit schools. I am also a fan that the ribbons are thick so it's easy to hid the bra straps underneath and there is no need to throw on a cardigan or blazer over top for an office environment, unless you want to.
Now the pants were an instant YES for me while in Edmonton for my "sisters" weekend (I still need to find the time to write about that). Red is a classic color and though it's been a pantone color pick for a while, I just feel like it never goes out of style. They are soooo comfy and the elastic waistband makes them a winner, 🤣. They are a comfortable fit through the legs and around the waist. I also love that they are high rise, so next year when I am back in the classroom, I'll have no issues crawling around in them and wont have to tug my shirts down. Oh, I hope high-waisted pants never go out of style again.
Another item that I was thrilled to find on my trip Edmonton was a pair of neutral pumps. I 've been searching high and low without luck, I could only find a matte color but not one with a little shimmer and shine. These Rockport pumps are not only the perfect color, but the mid-heel is comfortable to wear all day long in the office.
