Dress (size down) // OTK Boots c/o // Similar Sleeveless Blazer // Glasses // Similar Chanel Handbag, Similar Affordable Bag //
Last week I did a post on how to wear over the knee boots to the office. I mentioned in that post that I did have a second look in mind that would show another work day appropriate outfit featuring over the knee boots. Today I am sharing that look with you!
As this outfit shows, another way in which you can make over-the-knee boots appropriate for an office or professional setting is to style them with a dress, so that only the tiniest sliver of skin shows above the boots. To make the look extra professional add a blazer or sleeveless blazer like I did here.
Okay, on to the specifics of this outfit. The OTK boots are brand new and I have got to say I love them. They are way better quality than I was expecting (and are better than some of my far more expensive boots) Also, they don’t slide down at all while you’re walking – a common problem with OTK boots.
The dress I got this past weekend and love that the pockets are actually functional. (side note: can we please talk about why the heck women’s clothing is constantly being made with fake pockets?! It drives me beyond insane) I run around between various offices & courtrooms all day so being able to throw my cell phone in one of these pockets has been amazing. The dress is BIG though and I recommend going 1 or even 2 sizes down. I am usually a small/medium, and this is an extra small.
As always, if you’ve got sizing questions or quality questions about any of the items you see me wear, let me know in the comments below!

That dress looks super comfy and I love the pockets. IO do not own a pair of OTK boots yet, but am on the lookout for an affordable pair. Thanks for linking up at Fabulous Friday!

It is such a comfy dress! Perfect for work. And ahh you need to get a pair, they are surprisingly versatile. These are great because they are under $50. I also really love the steve madden ones but they are about $150.

I love this dress. It's so cute and those pockets are absolutely adorable. I love that this is totally wearable for work and during the day. Those OTK boots are really great.

Thank you Ruth! This is definitely one of my favorite work outfits – comfy but still looks professional (which basically is what I am always aiming for with work wear haha)

Totally agree on your side note…why can't we have pockets too?!

I love over the knee boots. When I first bought mine nearly a decade ago, I never thought they would make it this far. Would be awesome if you can link up to http://the-wardrobe-stylist.com/2017/02/19/diy-no-sew-blanket-scarf/
