Blazer // Skirt // Heels (SO comfortable) // Crossbody Bag (under $30!) // Lipstick (in “wonderland”)
You may remember this suit from my Nordstrom Sale – Product Review post. I have already worn this CeCe suit a few times since then, and receive compliments every time I wear it! The reason I think it is so well-received is that it strikes the perfect balance of professional & stylish/youthful.
The bow detailing adds a hint of femininity. I also love the unique slight a-line cut of the skirt. So few suits diverge from the pencil skirt style, that it was nice to add something different to my wear-to-work wardrobe.
This Forever 21 crossbody was *such* a great purchase! I use it probably once a week and it cost less than $30! The style reminds me of the famous Chloe “Drew” (but with a price tag that is actually affordable!)
Please forgive my hair in these photos – the humidity has been crazy here in Vancouver this week and I certainly have had the “mane” to prove it. Side note: one of my childhood nicknames was “Simba” lol.
In other news, I am flying back to the east coast later today to spend a week with my family. I am so, so, excited to eat my parents home cooking, squish my nieces & nephews, & relax with friends by the pool. Follow along on instagram to keep up with my adventures; and like me on facebook to see videos – I will try to post at least one live video while I am away.

This really is a gorgeous suit and that bow detail on the pockets is adorable! It is perfectly suited for a professional yet youthful look!

Thanks Shelbee! I totally agree – the balance between professional and youthful is definitely what drew me to this suit!
