Getting too predictable
When: Wednesday November 9, 2011
What:
Dress: Madison (Panama)
Pink tights: JC Penny's (U.S.A.)
Black bow belt: From this seller on eBay
Black pumps: La Onda (Panama)
White bow clutch: Forever 21 (U.S.A.)
Tous bracelet: Present from my sister :)
Where:
Work + Movies with my boyfriend and his family to watch Johnny English
Comments:
Lately I have realized that my outfits have become a little "safer" and "predictable" when I go to work. I seemed to have lost that boldness in me to wear funky things to work. So today I decided to step out of my safe zone and wear bright pink tights to work!!
I know people stare when I wear things like this (sometimes good stares, but mostly bad stares); but it makes me happy to be myself. And like my dad always says to me, I am a walking example to others that it is important to be yourself no matter what others think.

Do you wear bold pieces to work?
Here are all the ways in which I've worn these pink tights:

Love those tights! And the lace trim on your dress is so pretty.
ReplyDeleteI wouldn't call what I wear to work "bold", but they're not normal office wear either. But then again I work at a film production company so their dress code is pretty relaxed.
You are rocking those bright tights! Love this! The bow clutch is absolutely adorable too. You took a girly and feminine dress and made it a little edgy and fun! Good for you :)
ReplyDeleteHow fun are those tights? You look so cute!
ReplyDeleteOH I love this dress!!!

marie, i have a pair of tights this same magenta color and they are still in their packaging because i haven't felt bold enough to wear them yet! but your collage gives me lots of inspiration of how i could wear them!
ReplyDeleteWhat kind of lipstick or gloss are you wearing? It is very pretty.
ReplyDeleteI love those pink tights Marie! Good for you girl, because they look gorgeous on you. That dress is adorable! Stay true to YOU! :D

Loving your bright pink tights, they reall took your dress out of its elements. :)
ReplyDeleteYour outfits are always beautiful and tasteful. I cant imagine you getting bad stares. They are probably wishing they had your boldness! :)
ReplyDeleteLove your stems in those bright pink tights! Great how you grounded them with the black pumps.
ReplyDeleteHave a great weekend!
Yes, I like this and
ReplyDeleteYes, sometimes I wear odd things to work.
But as Kurt Cobain said it best:"They laugh at me because I’m different; I laugh at them because they’re all the same."
Love, love love it. The dress is great and the tights are brilliant,
ReplyDeleteand I like all the outfit pics you have posted here
Pink tights should be compulsory haha

Only you could wear such boldly colored tights and make it look good Marie! Anything other than black or grey tights is outside of my comfort zone, so I don't think colored tights will be an addition to my wardrobe any time soon. They look great on you though!
ReplyDeleteThanks for letting me know! I'll have to be more careful when I write it from now on. Thanks for the comment and heads up, have a nice day!
ReplyDeleteAaawww, I'm so glad it does Heidi!! Can't wait to see you wear them :)
ReplyDeleteHello Rebecca! First of all, thank you for always commenting on my blog... I really do appreciate it! To answer your question, I first used a bright pink lipstick, Brand: "Wendy", Code: "GA10 Wendy 09 Perfect Lipstick". Then on top of that, I put the "Maximum Plumping Lip Treatment" gloss by Sally Hansen. I'm sure you could achieve the same effect by wearing any brand of pink lipstick you own and just adding some gloss on top!
ReplyDeleteHope that helps. Thanks again and have a wonderful day!
