I work in a college and my students always ask when then meet me if I'm a student so I need to make my business casual wardrobe make me look older. I think I need to purchase more accessories or do something new with my hair. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993293 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 13:18:01 +0000 LuLu Mom 993293@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I raelly want to revamp my work worobe this winter, I have all these ideas but never can pull them off. I do think that solids with fun jewelry/accessories/scarfs is the best way to go to keep things longer. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993250 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 13:09:33 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 993250@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I struggle with coming up with cute outfits when I'm pregnant. I like to accessorize and buy trendy things and wear heels, but mAternity clothes are pretty blah. I never feel cute when I leave the house. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993248 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 13:09:28 +0000 Sunshine1810 993248@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@grizz: I tend to be pretty boring as well. I am starting to try and focus a little more on accessories to help with that. I get a lot of clothes that are staples (cardigans, tanks for under the cardigans, etc.). </p> <p>I definitely don't spend as much money on clothes as I used to, but lately I have been better about finding great sales. I am spending a fraction of what I used to spend on clothes. I have to wear professional/dressy clothes to work each day, it's expensive! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993246 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 13:09:08 +0000 ShootingStar 993246@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm pretty boring, I just pick out a shirt and bottoms. But my biggest issue with getting dressed is that practically everything maternity I have has a dark panel which shows through almost every shirt I have. I have to wear a cami under almost everything and I'm starting to outgrow them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993244 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 13:05:21 +0000 Boheme 993244@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think I'm too boring. I don't spend a lot on clothes anymore since I got married and had DS, so I choose plain basics that won't ever go out of style. I could stand to be a little more adventurous! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993240 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 13:02:47 +0000 Sunshine1810 993240@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: I wish I could make myself do that. Every Sunday night I think about doing that and then decide I don't want to, but then I'm kicking myself on Monday morning!</p> <p>@sunny: I like Loft too! Loft has some great accessories as well @bluestriped bee! If you have a Loft outlet near you, or can get to a regular Loft when they are having a sale, you can get some great deals! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993232 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:59:45 +0000 BSB 993232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@sunny: I don't do it, either. I have some scarves and some belts but I only wear them when I need to (when I'm cold or to keep my pants up).</p> <p>I struggle with what shirt to wear with what pants... so accessorizing is last on my list! haha. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993224 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:58:34 +0000 sunny 993224@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swurlygurl: I like Loft for casual, grown up clothes. I don't find that the tshirts last super long though. But I always buy on sale so I don't mind terribly. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993219 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:56:50 +0000 sunny 993219@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I struggle with accessorizing. As in, I don't do it at all! I don't really own any jewelry except my engagement and wedding rings and I have a few necklaces I wear with dresses. </p> <p>I was also pretty casual at work so I just wore a nice tshirt/blouse and jeans. I would occasionally wear heels but usually it was flats or even sneakers. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993210 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:54:50 +0000 looch 993210@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swurlygurl: @bluestriped bee: what about Banana Republic?</p> <p>Right now I am loving their Hampton crop pants, I have like 4 pairs and they are awesome!</p> <p>I have a pair, for example, that is white with blue dots, I pair it with a navy peplum jacket I got from Boden. I just ordered a pair of navy wedge t strap sandals also from Boden and I do a fun necklace or bangles.</p> <p>My office is business casual, but a lot of people around here wear suits because it's easy. I dress up for myself! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993204 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:54:02 +0000 AmandaB8 993204@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Mine's easy - I have to wear close toed flats (so I only have 2 pairs), dress slacks, and a nice shirt (or work polo - but it's not required). I don't feel pressure to look cute since I work with a bunch of guys - I consider myself lookin good when I throw jewelry on :wink: </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993134 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:30:56 +0000 BSB 993134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@swurlygurl: I have that problem, too. Most of my clothes is from American Eagle. It was good when I was in college and fresh out of college but not 6 years out of school. Recently, I stopped wearing graphic tees to work. I don't have any work attire requirements since I work in a lab. I think that's why my wardrobe is so casual. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993100 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:19:14 +0000 swurlygurl 993100@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: That is amazing! I wish I could make myself do that every Sunday!</p> <p>I struggle with waking up early enough to do more than throw some clothes on. But, in an ideal world where I did give myself enough time, I have trouble buying clothes that look grown up, I think? I still feel like I dress like a 19/20 year old in college, as opposed to a mid-20's career woman. I really want to grow-up my wardrobe, but good grief, where to start! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993088 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:17:24 +0000 BSB 993088@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@looch: I need to do that. It would be so easy in the mornings if I started doing that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993085 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:16:24 +0000 looch 993085@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>NOTHING! Because I set up a week's worth of outfits on the weekend. I literally plan down to the underwear because there's nothing worse than putting on black panties and deciding to wear white pants or not having the right tights.</p> <p>Today I am wearing an orange and khaki dress with a khaki jacket, sleeves rolled up and a turquoise beaded necklace. Shoes are beige leather strappy wedges. Pop of color in toenail polish, Essie Lapiz of Luxury. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/getting-dressed-in-the-morning-what-do-you-struggle-with#post-993080 Tue, 06 Aug 2013 12:15:03 +0000 BSB 993080@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I have an okay fashion sense. I'm pretty conservative when it comes to my style so I don't usually try new fashion trends. Well, unless I can get it on sale which at that point, it's not new anymore.</p> <p>Any way, I have issues with what shoes to wear and wearing outfits that don't match. I can put together an outfit consisting of solid bottoms with a solid top but other than that, most of my outfits match or coordinate. </p> <p>I don't have the guts to mix and match patterns. Come to think of it, my fashion sense is kinda boring. </p>
