I've been jonesin' for a sleeveless silk (or similar) button-front blouse this summer. I came across this one on Revolve by Dolce Vita:
Although, I prefer all natural fabrics, especially in the summer, viscose is close enough. I love this bright top paired with something appropriate for work:
Shirt: DV by Dolce Vita Camp Shirt (Orange, size XS).
Skirt: BR Lightweight Wool Pencil Skirt (Black, size 00R).
Shoes: Ann Taylor Signature Pump (Black patent, size 6).
Clutch: Botkier Charlotte Oversized Clutch (Black).
Necklace: Forever21 Pendant.
This new Banana Republic Skirt is actually size 00R, not 00P. Measured against my other BR skirt in 00P, but for the length, it's actually smaller! *scratches head* I love the extra length though; it gives it more of a true pencil fit. I always think Petite BR skirts are too short for my liking. And for anyone who has ever thought of taking down the length of a BR pencil skirt, don't do it. I tried. The most that it can be taken down is 1/4". For some reason they make an angular cut in them hem making it impossible to let it out a full 1"+. I was really annoyed about that. =/
Notice my new purse? It's no Chanel, but it will have to do for at least another few years. It's really labeled as a clutch, but it comes with this great detachable chain to making it a bit more versatile.

I love this entire outfit!! You pull off bright colors on top very well!
Your purse is gorgeous! I personally do not like to carry any obvious designer bags (Chanel or LV) to my place of work, so this is perfect!!
Love the outfit and the clutch/bag! Your hair looks great, too!
I love this top - so nice for these sweltering days we've been blessed with in the DMV. I think that color is actually incredibly versatile and have been wearing a similar-colored top with cobalt, tan, black/white, and olive (my fave) bottoms.
LOOOVE the purse!!! I'm so into oversized clutches right now and even better when it has a strap option! I'm looking for a high waisted pencil skirt!!! I was afraid I missed the boat when they were all the rage - did you find this skirt recently? I hope so, might have to jump on it.
Do you feel there's a lot of toe cleavage with the Ann Taylor Perfect Pump?
yes! this is new! but vit's actually the lightweight wool version that they have all year round.
There's a little toe cleavage. Not a lot. But I don't have particularly long toes either.
ditto on michelle's comment. thumbs up on everythg.
I love this look/outfit! Something I would totally wear to work! You look so amazing in skirts Cher!!!! I love the high waisted style of the pencil skirt on you- makes your legs look super long!
The top- oh so cute- that color is gorgeous!
Love the proportions of this outfit! You look super lean and lovely. And the tank is the perfect sleeve length! Wow good choice!
