Office Style: Mixed Prints + Giveaway









Y'all know I love a good mixed print! But sometimes it can be difficult when I specifically want to style my look professionally for the office, but equally want the flexibility of changing into something chic for cocktail hours for after work hours.  

I recently stopped into LOFT for their 50% off sale and fell in love with these stripe pants and palm print cami.  If I can be honest, I typically hate pants.  I rarely wear them on the blog which is why you will mostly find me styling dresses and skirts.  I dislike pants for a number of reasons including it can sometimes feel like the impossible task finding a great fit for my petite frame, not to mention, I also have a more athletic build making it just a bit more difficult.  Rant over.  

I was initially skeptical of these particular pants even more as I thought the stripes would widen my frame.  I was pleased to find the opposite was true.  I did opt to size up one size to ensure they fit well based on their slim cut.  

For the office, I opted for a mixed print combo that were the same color to still carry the professional look, but also carried accessories for after work functions.  I also wanted to give the look a bit of contrast so I added my absolute addiction bag, the Heart Cross Body from Pleats Design.  

I feel I should also add, I have worn both this cami and boyfriend blazer about 100 times each since I got them.  Both are so versatile! 

Happy Wednesday!  

XOXO,
Anna

  4. I love how these prints look together! You kill it every time. I have to agree in that finding pants is so hard! I always prefer a skirt or dress because its much easier to find a great fit. But these look awesome on you!!
