Great Dresses For Work

As you all know, we have to look professional when we go to work.  I love to dress up.  I bet I spend close to 12,000 a year on clothes alone.  My husband has no clue - have my own credit card that he doesn't see.  I pride myself on looking the best I can possibly look on my jobs.  I feel I get a lot more respect when I look sharp.  I can really tell a difference.

Anyways, I found this website called Modcloth that is just really great.  I am posting two URLs of two dresses I just bought there this weekend.  I'm hoping the rest of you will like the clothes as much as I do. I am a huge polka dot fan and would have everything in polka dots if I could.  Anyways, here are two dresses I got.  There are many, many more here. 

What I like about the website on reviews is people put what their bust size is and waist and hips and then a comment.  That helps me decide which ones to read because I'm a size 6 with D sized chest and a lot of times clothes don't always look that great if you have a large chest.  I have to be very careful.  It helps to know what size someone is when reviewing what they have to say about an outfit.  They also post pictures of themselves in the outfit, which is very cool.

Let me know what you think.

Yes.  Check it out, Kelli.  I have ordered from Chadwicks before and I've been happy with the items I have purchased.  I am trying to add more to my closet. So I have been on an ordering frenzy.

Oh, man!!  You go girl!!  Beautiful outfits.  I never wear dresses to work, or at least I didn't used to but for some reason I'm into them now. 

My only problem is I like to spread my legs apart and put my machine in between.  Not very ladylike in some of these dresses.  LOL

Thanks, Michelle

You should post some of your favorite outfits that you love. 

I've been buying shoes lately to match all these new outfits.  Too bad they all hurt my feet.  LOL

I haven't been shopping much lately :-( trying to save for a downpayment. I miss my NYC shopping sprees...

Now, there is an amazing place to shop.  I went there this time last year.  Sensory overload big time!!  Too bad the hubby was with me; not as much fun dragging him along.  He'd give me a hard time about spending money.  That's the ultimate place to shop for sure!

Yes, I love shopping in the city.  My daughter's 24th birthday is on the 13th and that's what she wants to do, go to the city shopping.....I said NO PROBLEM, LOL!

I love shopping downtown for shoes....I end up walking back to the parking garage pulling my machine and bags of shoes, LOL!  Hubs hates when I work in the city!

Oh, Kelli, we are on the same page!  I've been shoe shopping, too!  I found a great website called 6pm.com and I ordered these shoes.....

I just bought two pairs of shoes from 6PM and one of the pairs they sent me the wrong size.  I ordered a 7.5 and they sent me a 7.  They were way too tight.  You realize they won't pay to return even thought it was their fault.  I emailed them about it and they just ignored me.  

They have great shoes but when it's their fault you can't wear the shoes, I shouldn't have to pay to send them back.  It will be a while before I buy from them again.  Love the pic of the shoes you loaded.  Sweet!!

Oh, wow, really?  This is the first time I bought from them, and I'm hoping they fit so I don't have to return them and pay.  I usually go to DSW to get shoes, love that store.  But since it was slow this week, I spent time shopping online and found that website, haha.  Hope they fit!!  My shoe size changes depending on the shoe :(

I love how big this thread is, LOL, women just love to shop and talk about it, haha!

If you can wear those shoes, more power to ya!
