Turtleneck // Similar Pencil Skirts: here & here // Similar Ankle Boots // Similar Necklace
Monday morning definitely seems like the time to post a fun work look. Who doesn't need a little something in their Monday outfit to make them smile?! I love leopard print this season, and finding a way to incorporate this bold print into a work appropriate look has been on my mind for weeks. I finally did it with this outfit.
The key to incorporating a dramatic piece for work is to keep everything else extra traditional and conservative. Matching a comfy black turtleneck with this skirt and wearing black tights with ankle boots did the trick. Whenever I wear a turtleneck I also can't help but put a statement necklace on top so I went with this dark red bauble necklace to compliment the leopard print.
Tonight I have a "women in leadership" event and I think it is going to be really great. There is a keynote speech and the opportunity to learn from a bunch of women who are successful in their various fields. Now, I have to figure out what to wear! wish me luck! haha
I LOVE those booties! They are so pretty, and it's great that they can be worn for going out or for work.

Stopping by for What I Wore to Work.. and now following you on bloglovin :) I wear a leopard print pencil skirt to work sometimes too. I do the same thing - keep everything else super conservative. I either pair it with all black like you did here or with a light tan sweater.

You can never go wrong with a Leopard Pencil Skirt. I wore mine to the blog just a couple of days ago. Also, about a month back I paired mine with a Black Turtleneck, Black Tights and Black Booties. It is a classic, polished look. Great minds think alike.
