I probably wouldn't be able to do it on the client site, but off-site I could probably get away with it even though I would still get some weird looks for the dot on dot!

I can probably get away with the dot on dot, but being a more conservative business casual dresser than many of my colleagues, I'll probably just wear the pants with a solid color. I'm sure very few people at my work place would be able to appreciate it as well. ;)Cherhttp://afashiondeliberation.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6811848679435158741.post-12802939972411291762012-05-13T12:49:48.701-04:002012-05-13T12:49:48.701-04:00You're better than I am to try and wait for a ...You're better than I am to try and wait for a sale!

Unfortunately I'm not in your field, so I'm not really sure if this outfit would be work appropriate. I'd venture to guess that maybe on casual Fridays if your workplace is conservative. In my casual office, this outfit would be considered dressy ;)Ceehttp://tobrightenmyday.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6811848679435158741.post-31834760744065799442012-05-11T19:07:17.696-04:002012-05-11T19:07:17.696-04:00Great job on the DIY alteration!

I don't know exactly how conservative your workplace is, but if it's more conservative I'd probably vote no for dot on dot despite loving it personally. People who don't appreciate patterns or the art of pattern mixing might find it crazy/distracting (as I've come to discover...at my new job : )PetiteAsianGirlhttp://www.extrapetite.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6811848679435158741.post-25565484750605905512012-05-11T17:56:03.242-04:002012-05-11T17:56:03.242-04:00Fits so much nicer after your alterations.
