{Zara Dress, H&M Blazer, Calvin Klein Belt and BCBG Shoes via Filene’s Basement}
I’m pretty proud of the clever outfit concoctions that I’ve put together to help me avoid wearing suits to work. But I have to say that this one takes the cake.
I got this blazer on a whim a while back, but I wasn’t really sure how I’d wear it. Then divine inspiration struck at 6am as I stumbled out of bed one morning… or perhaps I was so bleary-eyed that I just grabbed two random items in the same color scheme. Whatever the case, I don’t think I’ve ever received so many compliments on one of my work ensembles as this one.
Who knew clashing patterns could be so office-friendly?
I SUPER MEGA ULTRA love this look! That blazer is killing me softly! LOVE LOVE LOVE 🙂
Love it Kendra – super cute!
Very nice, the patterns looks good together.
Love this pattern mixing! Amazing!
I love your dress from Zara
fabulous hun!
way to dress it up for work in a different way 🙂
Oh, I am obsessed with this outfit. This is the PERFECT mix of prints!
Pattern mixing at its best. That jacket would look great with a white skirt or pants, too. And a yellow top. I love that jacket.
this is great… but I’m not surprised. I love all of your work looks.

Love it! I think it’s a great look! Way to pull off a jacket that could otherwise be tricky. And that dress is soooo cute!!!!
Great outfit!
I love stripes and florals together. That blazer is seriously drool worthy.
Love. It. Seriously. The stripes with that dress? Totally amazing.
This outfit is giving me life!!! LOVE IT!

Beautiful outfit! I love the print mix. And you wear it with the most wonderful smile!
:O I love this outfit! The blazer and the shoes are so badass. I love them both separately but they look even better together. You have great taste.

Oh my gosh, you look fabulous! Makes me wish doctors could wear blazers, so I could wear this outfit to work in eleventy-billion years when I finally become one, haha. Now if you can show me how to rock the white coat, I will bow down to you!
I wear some pretty far-out outfits to work sometimes and those always wind up being the ones that get the most compliments. I think people are so used to seeing everybody dressed in greys and browns and blahs that when we show up with colours and patterns, it perks people up!
Love the pattern mixing, looks so fabulous! Both pieces are definitely standout in a good way =)
Oh this is gorgeous. You mix prints so well, I’m always iffy about trying it, I’m afraid I’ll look ridiculous, but this is incredible – it all works so well together! I love it – it makes for some serious outfit inspiration!
I used to be wary of mixing patterns as well, but one trick is to stick to the same color palette like I did with this outfit.
I love this look!!!! I have to try something like this for work!
