work it: green gap trousers + leopard wedges

discovery: green casual pants from the gap make a good alternative to denim or basic khakis for casual fridays. 

2012: trousers – gap/2011: button-down shirt – banana republic/ 2010: wedges – nine west, belt – joe fresh

tip: worried about wearing a bright colours for the office? apply the K.I.S. principle – ‘keep it simple’. try a bright bottom, pair it with a basic blouse in a neutral like white, add, if you are the adventurous type, add a little more interest in a shoe or accessories to keep your look cube-appropriate.

work it: so easy being green in h&m conscious line

discovery: this h&m blouse that’s enviro-friendly. it’s my first purchase from their conscious line and i think it’s a cube-worthy addition to my closet.

2012: blouse – h&m, pumps – nine west, necklace – dynamite/2010: bracelet – le chateau/ 2002: handbag – marks & spencer.

i paid a little more for this blouse from h&m than normally i would for their merch (which still really isn’t a lot – $50) as long as i don’t spill coffee on it, this blouse will last me a while and is versatile enough to ‘work’ a lot!
