Mission #37, Day 4--Business Tulle
Everyone's work environment is different, obvi. And therefore dress codes can vary greatly. I would say, though, that unless you work in a fairly strict work environment, you could feasibly wear a tulle skirt to work. So for this Mission Week look I give you, dare I say, business tulle!
When I was in college for my paralegal certificate one of my professors heeded a very serious warning to us prospective paralegals: the education of law will ruin your life. :-O
What she meant was that learning law would ruin our cinematic life. And . . . . she was kind of right. For example, I grew up poor and so I am way, way behind on every movie any normal person has ever seen ever. So it was only about 5 or 6 years ago that I finally saw The Goonies for the first time. And my first thought in the movie--"Hey! They can't serve that eviction notice on those kids unless they are 18 or older!"
The biggest bummer about it all was that prior to attending college and deciding to be a paralegal, I was obsessed, obsessed with Erin Brokevich. I liked the movie, but when I had my second divorce, was dirt poor and barely able to keep my head above water and could actually relate to the movie--I loved it. Especially this part:
Basically every paralegal move from that movie: lies. All lies.

Your red jacket is awesome and the wide leg sailor pants....awesome-r! I love this look.
I love thrifting. About 80 to 85% of what I own was thrifted. My sis doesn't like thrifting for all the reasons you mentioned but me, I don't mind at all for all the good reasons you've also pointed out. Friends see my wardrobe and think that I have a lot of money to throw away on clothes. I know I don't.
The good thing about thrifting here is that the clothes come from different parts of the world, mostly Asian brands and most of the quality is great.

Love the mix of masculine military vest and very feminine pink skirt!

Serious bragging rights you've got there, Frannie! State Senator! Wow! Kudos to Conner!
Now I've seen a lovely way to style my brown skirt. Cute look.
I wish I knew suggestions to give about Kaden. I'm sorry that I don't.

I understand its good to be responsible about spending money, but when a Giorgio Armani item is that dirt cheap you'll be needing jail to keep me from getting them. Looooove your dress; all the pockets and buttons! it's so fab with the leo shoes.

Love your relaxed look. Acceptance of people from a different culture, ethics, sexuality, color, e.t.c is something a lot of people (myself inclusive) need to learn. I think that it's an individual thing. And is a pointer to how open-minded and humane someone truly is. I think that at first there is the shock to overcome and then if someone is open-minded they become accepting of the other person.
I must confess I did wonder about some of your work outfits, but you're lucky τ̲̅☺ have such relaxed dress code at work. I like the occasional power suit myself but on the regular I don't. Cute monochrome look. Love your necklace.
