Classic Black Dress
A classic black dress is a staple in all wardrobes and this one is a favorite sheath design from Talbots. I love adding a little color to an outfit and accented my waist with a red belt and red bow heels. This Chanel-inspired blazer was the perfect finishing touch to the outfit.

A Touch of Pink and Ivory

Say it in Red
Can you tell I like adding in pops of color?! This outfit was inspired by the holiday season recently and what better way to accent your work outfit then a bold red color. A mentor always told me, wear red to all your interview outfits and go in there with confidence! I usually add in red ballet flats for this reason but opted for a bolder look with a red blouse. I toned it down with classic black pants, black ballet flats and a black belt accented in gold.

Top: Express XXS (exact)
Belt: Hermes belt (similar, my blog post)
Shoes: Tieks by Gavrieli size 6 (my blog post + How to wear them in comfort)
