I’m not so big on ‘new year resolutions’ per se and I mentioned why in
this post but I did have a list of things I hoped to do this year and more recently, this list has turned to ‘lists’ of the same thing written over and over again in an effort to try to be organized. Ha ha
Things ranging from the smallest things like learning to draw my brows, buying a new blog theme and the big things like my
catwalk classes and putting together an event.
It wasn’t till the second half of the month, that I really decided to stop penning down so much and actually start taking some actions. Of course, this also had to do with the fact that I was no longer an over stressed medical student but a new graduate with lots of free time on my hand.
Putting together my catwalk class, even though things didn’t quite go as planned gave me this great feeling of accomplishment that I wouldn’t be able to write about right now if I didn’t stop strategizing so much and just go for it.
Wondering where I’m going to with all of this?
I’m not quite sure myself, but you don’t put on a tee shirt that says ‘Stop Dreaming, Start Doing’ and not feel the need to preach it even if a little bit, you know? So I guess this is a sort of little monday morning/new week inspiration for you all and a reminder to myself as well.
I think T – shirts are everything really, because of their versatility.
Its called street wear but who says it can’t make an appearance as work wear too ey? Simply wear it tucked it into high waisted corporate pants or skirts With the right accessories also, you’re set to go!
You can also update your work style a bit and nail that ‘work chick’ look by throwing that blazer or hey a denim jacket! across your shoulder.
What do you think?
I’m wearing this Tee gifted from the good people over at Jeffery Coen, which is a brand that creates positive, inspiring, quality t-shirts for men and women.
The positive- inspiring bit doesn’t need to be explained much as I’m wearing one with a call to action quote.
I also agree with the ‘quality’ bit as that was one thing that stuck out for me when I put on the tshirt, the plushness of the fabric and I could tell because I had just done a customized tee for my sister a short while back and I could definitely feel the difference in quality.
My Tee came in a really nice packaging and they were also gracious enough to change it for me when I complained that it was a bit too body hugging for me. Nice customer service.
This was the look I planned for church but ended up not wearing it. Blogging about it doesn’t make it unwearable anymore, I don’t care! #StyleBloggerProblems, who can relate?! Lol

A little tip – Because their female tees are designed to be fitted, if you’re like me who prefers the oversize fit, then you either go two sizes up or go for the regular fit male tees as I’m wearing an XL female and its still not as loose as I would have loved it to be.
P.S – Don’t forget to leave me your comments oh! – Thoughts on the look , Do you work in an environment that permits T- Shirts? and what ways you try to update your work style.
Have a great week guys!

I love this look girl. The incorporation of the different shades of blue is stunning. The t-shirt is very cool and inspiring. I love that everything fits just right, not too tight or too loose. However I don't really see this as a work look especially for the corporate world, maybe for a more relaxed environment. I would rock this to an outing with friends, I could pair it with sneakers if I don't feel like wearing heels. I love the addition of the denim shirt and the grey backdrop is just perfect. Thumbs up on your blog consistency and congrats on all your success girl.

Well, maybe not for the 'corporate world' or strict professions like medicine, banking, law but this could pass off as a work look for people in a bit more accepting work environment, hence my question on if you work in an environment that allows this.
Thank you for the compliments!! Lool, whenever I get lengthy comments, I know I have pleased the reader thoroughly. Haha
Thank you so much Sarah, I appreciate you!!
Nice shirt! Well styled! I'm in love with the skirt and sandals tho.
I wear T-shirts once in a while to work, but they are usually plain… so they make a great base for my work/neck scarves…and I always finish off with a blazer.
Great look, hun!

Thank you!!
Really lovely look. You make blue look so good.
Hey Inez, Been a hot minute! Its real nice to see you around my zones again, Thank you.
Love the blues on you and please who says you can't rerock same outfit twice? As long as you don't blog same outfit twice, you are good to go.
I know right? Lol
Thank you nelo!!
Wearing different shades of blue at once is hard for me but you just nailed it in this post…can't wait to try it…thanks
Cassie I can relate o! Having the time is important but if you wait on it you will still be at square one. Congrats once again. It's not easy to graduate without issues) It's only a matter of weeks and I'm out of school too. It feels good but at thesame it's weird because I don't get to wear my kicks as often as I want. Please we need more work wear inspiration. I really love the post. About your cat walk class, I rea wanted to partake but distance is a barrier.
Always got for it!

Lovely message and tee to boot. I like the styling too. I could wear a tee to work with skinny or bootcut jeans and a blazer.

Thank you Berry!
Just realized that I don't even know what field you work in. Tut tut
Always..looks great on you!
My roommate used to tuck in tee shirts on pencil skirts then and twas good on her…
Have a great week ahead 🙂
My school likes us to dress cooperate to class and this is definitely something you could wear to class although that denim has to be some sweater or blazer to avoid being uncompliant( their word for everything school doesn't permit😌)
I love the different blue hues , gives a cool breeze to it . The best way to reblog an outfit is to style it differently but I get what you mean . It just doesn't feel right esp after you have blogged about it . X
