Day two of “No Pants Week” and things are in full swing! It was gorgeous and warm outside today here in Austin–perfect dress weather. I saw several of my dress week compatriots in the halls at school and they looked fabulous! The only hiccup came when I went to visit one of my professors during his office hours. He only has one chair in his office (which he sits in), so I had to put all my contortionist skills to good use in order to stay decent whilst basically rolling around on the floor so I could write notes at the same time (there’s also only one desk). Who needs yoga, right?
I can’t wait to wear my outfit for tomorrow! I don’t want to give too much away, but it involves trying to make a cocktail dress look casual (which can be a challenge in itself).
The sweater is Anne Klein (via TJ Maxx), the skirt is J. Crew, the necklace is Nine West, and the shoes are Me Too.

That top is beautiful – the color, the shape, and especially the extra details like the elbow ties.
How strange that a professor wouldn’t have a chair for office hours – I thought that would simply be standard in an office!
Thank you Kari!
My professor is new, so his furniture is still on order. I don’t mind sitting on the floor, he’s very generous with his time and extremely helpful, so I really can’t complain! My skirt antics made me laugh about it.
Kari’s right, the elbow ties make that sweater. The denim pencil skirt fits you like a dream, although I imagine that was less of a plus when you were trying to sit on the floor, LOL!
Thank you Kari and Kristen! You guys may be happy to know that when I went to office hours on Wednesday, my professor had found an extra chair!
