Dressed for: Comfy Coworking

by Sally on May 9, 2012 · 10 comments

Already Pretty outfit featuring maroon shrug, tie dye maxi dress, Foley + Corinna Mid-City Tote, Dana LeBlanc necklace

Shrug, thrifted – same one on eBay
Dress, via HauteLook - similar print/cut
Boots, Frye Veronica Slouch
Bag, Foley + Corinna Mid City Tote via eBay
Necklace, Dana LeBlanc
Wrap bracelet, Quince - similar
Earrings, gift – similar (in brown)

Coworking cohort Sarah Von and I have taken to meeting in local cafes. Since we’re on our laptops and therefore need some table space, we end up in stiff wood chairs most of the time so I generally opt for comfy duds on coworking days. Knit maxi dresses are comfier than PJs in my opinion, so I added some accessories and a shrug and headed out to brainstorm and work at a nearby Dunn Brothers.

For some reason, this makes me think of Rita Hayworth – in a very good way. Inexplicable, I suppose – but I think you look very nice and somehow glamorous in this outfit.

That dress is the coolest.

This looks fabulous on you–both the colors and the style. After seeing photos of you in many different skirts//dresses, I always prefer the slightly longer ones as they seem to be just the right proportion for you.

I hope your brainstorming went well!

Super cute. I normally don’t like maxi dresses, but with the shrug it works. Plus with the jewelry and purse, it looks great.

You’ve worn this dress with other tops and jackets before, but this is by far my favorite top you’ve paired with it. I also LOVE that it’s a true long-sleeved shrug rather than something with short or 3/4 sleeves. Balances out the length of the dress. All of which is to say, great outfit!!

I always love it when you wear that dress! And I agree on the comfort of maxi dresses – they are what I change into when I get home from work so I can be comfy yet also pulled together if people stop by.

I love this look but I’m a big fan of shrugs and complementary color combos and rad boots.

PS I didn’t know that you and Yes and Yes were cohorts! Saucy!
