Let's talk workwear. Maybe a little bit of non workwear fashion chat, too.

My blog is at theworkwearedit.com but our chat goes above and beyond that.

Mermaid - they sound fab.

bill - I agree re almond toe flats. Love them, but haven't seen v many. Marks & Spencer have some lovely looking ones.

I always wore heels in the office, Cointreau, w flats for the commute.

Cointreau - I tried some Zara flats last night, v nice and soft, but not v supportive. A friend has bunions and swears by the Stuart Weitzman elastic acted flats at R&B. They are ~£180, but she loves them. They are round toe.

i need to stagger back upstairs and look

EduardoBarcelona · 17/05/2014 15:10

oh yes , not in the skirt though. I rarely wear skirts out - ponders why

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 17/05/2014 15:11

For work? Wouldn't wear the perspex thingies for work.

Why are slash necks so hard to find btw? I like them.

noddyholder · 17/05/2014 15:11

I never wear skirts out either but do when I go shopping???

BelindaAllWorkedOut · 17/05/2014 15:12

Oh I thought you were going out, too. It's a great looking skirt for work or going out. And it's almost sold out.

Not sure I would wear any light colour with the skirt as may look twee on me esp. Like teh skirt though what about with wedges

EduardoBarcelona · 17/05/2014 15:43

yes, i need to go and hold some colours against it
I have a fear it might become one of those clothes...

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 17/05/2014 15:46

I like pretty skirts with black tops. Then again, I practically live in black tops.

Need some going out in summer ideas btw. Here or start another thread?

noddyholder · 17/05/2014 15:49

I would fearthis

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 17/05/2014 15:50

Skirt is sort of thing I'd wear for work though. & the tights are horrible, no?

noddyholder · 17/05/2014 15:53

I love the skirts but think they need careful styling
