Working it

This is a typical work-day outfit for me.

Simple as a t-shirt, a skirt, flats and some tan-coloured accessories like my tote, bangle and belt.

I hate being matchy-matchy with my shoes and bag!

I've had this t-shirt since before I was 20, me thinks. I love the flattering neckline, its colour (teal is one of my favourite hues) and that abstract yellowish print in the front that reminds me of a Rorschach test. However, fitting trends were apparently different back then and it now appears way too short on the torso for me to wear it with normal rise skirts or pants. Baring your midriff is acceptable when in your late teens, yet not the best option for a working 26-year-old. But, tuck it into one of my beloved high-waist skirts and problem solved!
