The Laser-Cut Trench

Alright guys, I'm super excited to share today's work-friendly look with y'all. I centered my OOTD around my new laser-cut trench courtesy of Donna Degnan.  It's definitely a wardrobe fave.  It adds just the right amount of edge to any and every ensemble.  For those of you unfamiliar with the brand, their label's all about effortless sophistication.  They were founded on the belief that women should look chic on all occasions.  Now, this trench IS an investment, but it's worth every penny IMHO!  I highly recommend picking up one for yourself, especially since it's on sale HERE.
Everything else I'm wearing today is old!  My dress pants are from Madewell, my shoes are from Castro (available here for $26.77), and my top's from H&M.  I'll make sure to link similar items for you guys below since I don't have product URLS listed.

8 Pieces, 8 Ways: Finale

Oh man, I can't believe this is my last look for "8 Pieces, 8 Ways!"  How sad.  I'll have to do another style challenge soon because I had a blast doing this one.  What should I tackle next?  I've been thinking about trying Kendi's 30x30 remix.  Have you guys heard of that one?  I'd love to hear your thought!  Leave me a comment below or hit me up on social.

Anywho, let's talk fashion.  For today's OOTD, I paired my Ann Taylor turtleneck with my Talbots pencil skirt.  I wore my Theory blazer on top for a sophisticated vibe but took it off because I got hot shooting.  Hashtag blogger problems, ha.  I carried my prada tote and threw on fierce ankle-strap heels to kick everything up a notch.  To finish off my look, I belted my skirt to highlight the small of my waist - you guys know how much I love visual illusions.  Yay for a faux-hourglass shape, ha! Today's ensemble is a solid work-friendly look.  It's not particularly unique, but it's classy and comfortable.  I've been a fan of polished outfits like these as of late.  What do you guys think - yah or nah? I promise I won't get offended if you don't dig this look!
