Getting Dressy

Today I had a little more time to get myself together for work. I wanted to go for a monochromatic look but with a muted pop of color. My green satin and lace skirt was perfect for this look. I guess I looked a lot more dressy today, since a customer commented on how I looked and asked if I was going to the ball. I said, "nope, just here at work and then off to take my final". Sometimes I feel out of my element when people start commenting on why I get so dressed up. Since I work at a bank, why don't I shop at The Limited and New York and Company like everyone else? People ask me that all the time. Or they ask, "why don't you wear pants?" They assume that I'm part of a religious cult or something, but pants are just uncomfortable to me. I'm starting to get tired of the repeated questions, but as long as I feel good and look good, I'll keep dressing up for the heck of it.

Here's what I wore:
black blouse, JCPenney ($10) skirt, ebay ($4) suede pumps, TJMaxx ($40)
