Since I have the pleasure of dressing up for work, I took on the challenge to style a suit from the Limited in three different ways appropriate for a professional environment. And this was my favorite look.
I work in the epitome of a corporate work environment. We are dressed business casual or business professional everyday. As the Chief Communications Officer of the agency I work for, I’m the spokesperson and many times, the one people see in the community and I have to look professional without losing my personality. This was not only a challenge I took for the Limited, but one I took on for myself and was excited about the outfits I put together including this one with a vibrant red maxi skirt, the suit paired with a mint colored vintage top and another edgier everyday look for work.

Visit the Limited’s Facebook page to see the other two ways I styled the suit and let me know which is your favorite!
That red skirt is GORGEOUS, but I definitely like the outfit with the mint top the best. Great job styling!
I love all three!! The long red skirt is my favorite thought. As someone who works in an office, I am constantly looking for unique ways to style my work essentials…thanks for three really fun ideas. I have a similar striped shirt from the Limited that I love…

The skirt and the bustier top look amazing together! Great style!
What an amazong outfit! wish I could wear that to work.x
I like that because it is unashamedly feminine. ๐ And imaginative. And it stands out with that red. And still sort of polished with the blazer.
I'd say I can see why its your favorite!
I am so loving this. Anything with red and black as a combinations, I'm such a sucker for.
You did a fabulous job with that skirt, it's absolutely gorgeous, and the styling of it is so stunning!! Also, love your hair back like that, super pretty! Hope your Tuesday is a fantastic one. V
