Ikat Be Any More Professional

It was a day full of meetings so I put on my most sophisticated outfit - that wouldn't cause me to melt in the summer heat - and off I went.

The black and white outfit on it's own was just a tad too professional for my liking and definitely too boring for the gorgeous summer day, so I added a pop of colour with my new ikat flats.

Not only were they the perfect pop of colour, but they allowed me to kick-up my heels and get from one meeting to the next with ease.

And, just in case it got chilly throughout the day - you never know with Ottawa, or my office, they love to crank the A/C sometimes - I threw on a red cardigan just for the fun of it!

Dress - Le Chateau; Blouse - SmartSet; Shoes - Aldo; Cardigan - Bluenotes;

This cardigan has been a piece of my wardrobe for years - back when Bluenotes was still known as Thrifty's. That's just one of the perks of being petite - clothes that you bought at an embarassingly young age still fit!
