The Struggle

Ya'll! I'm going to be honest for a minute here...
Have you ever gotten stuck in a fashion rut? Not necessarily in a rut even...just stuck.
I work in an office environment, and although it's nothing fancy--I'm certainly not expected to show up to work in 4 inch heels and a full on suit everyday--I feel like it's important to dress professionally. To present myself to the best of my ability. I am the youngest in the office, but I want to be taken seriously and I think it starts with how I present myself. Here's my dilemma: I look like a 15 year old.
No seriously. put me in business attire, and I look like I'm playing dress up. I can't find my work style. I know what I like. I know what I find appealing, but then I put it on and it's just not right. Either nothing in the store fits me because let's just say, I may never fully bloom, or the things that do fit me are in the juniors department and look like they are made for teenagers because, well, they are. I need your help. Where can I find professional looks (within a decent price range) that actually work for my body type? I have no problem finding cute blouses. The pants and jackets are the culprit. My enemies that I wish would love me as much as I love them. I'll be on this hunt for as long as it takes, but for now, I suppose I'll have to make do with cute little dresses and dressing up leggings to the best of my ability. Luckily, I'm getting pretty good at that last part(;

So I've given fashion advice since I started this blog and long before to my friends and family. Now, I need the advice from YOU! Let the ideas start flowing! Let's get creative people!(;

Peace, love, and womens work wear,
Brittani

PS-Here are a few things that I really love and are basically my inspiration for this work wear scavenger hunt. All found on Pinterest because we know it's the best invention since MySpace...did I really just say how much I loved MySpace? Oops!
