Comments:
Since I have so much time off this week, I decided to start getting ready for my move back to Panama. It's only in three weeks, I can't believe it! So I started making piles of things to take, things to give away, and things to sell. Today I tried to use craiglist for the first time and I managed to sell two pieces of furniture within 1 hour! How cool is that?!

In terms of the outfit, I really looove this floral dress because it seems to have endless remixing possibilities. Today I paired it with these bright yellow tights since today is the 3rd day of my colored tights challenge. I also added this warm and comfy white knit cardi since the weather is getting pretty cold.

Have you ever sold anything on Craiglist?

Here are all the ways in which I've worn these yellow tights:

Comments:
Today's outfit was a real challenge because I had to wear a professional outfit for work that included colored tights (because of this week's challenge). Out of all my colored tights, I feel that burgundy is one of the few colors that could look professional if worn right.

I think I managed to make this outfit look work appropriate by keeping most of the outfit neutral and sophisticated. I really love this new beige trench my parents bought me for my birthday!

Do you wear colored tights to work? What colors do you use?

For some reason, I always feel so sophisticated and classy when I wear a simple black turtleneck. Something about this item just seems so timeless and feminine to me.

I really like how it goes with this patterned skirt which, btw, I have worn way to many times... hehe. Since today is the first day of my colored tights challenge, I decided to add a pop of color with these bright pink tights!

Do you own a black turtleneck?
