    Just started my new job and after looking around at what everyone was wearing, I feel I need to step up my business casual attire! Does anyone recommend any good places to get work clothes that won’t break the bank?

    @ Mints– I want a pair of Loubs when I pass too! My husband said he would buy me a pair but he keeps calling them “Lou Boutins”… ha! He also was getting Louis Vuitton and Louboutin confused for a while– hey, at least he tries to keep up!

    I like to wear skirts or dresses most of the time. I wear flats with my pencil skirt, though. My pants are longer, so I have to wear a small heel with those.

    I need new nylons. It's way past the time (in New England) to get away with bare legs and skirts/dresses. So I've been wearing pants most of the time since I only have patterned black tights.

    I love me some handbags :). I don't think about it too much for work, though, since I just put it away once I'm at work. Going out, though, I switch it up! I have a leopard print clutch that I love to wear.

    I'd love some Louboutins, but I'm not a huge HIGH heel fan. I'll go 3 inches at most. I've just started to wear heels out dancing, so I'm training myself to go higher. Most of my friends are shorter than me, so when I wear heels, I feel awkwardly tall (and I'm not overly tall). I just bought some REALLY hot Nine West booties (not for work). Can't wait to wear them out 🙂

    F - *76*(08/'13)-Becker & NINJA - "server upgrade" survivor
    B - 60('11); *82*(10/'13) -Becker & NINA

    DONE, DONE, AND DONE.

    I don't think anyone has mentioned Dress Barn yet. It's my go to place when I actually have more than $20 to spend – they have everything.

    Loft Outlet near my city had 50% off of everything yesterday and an additional $15 off if you spend over $75. Well I spent alot and asked the sales lady if I can get $30 off since I spent over $75 X 2! She let me!! She just rang up the purchases in two separate transaction. Three pairs of pants, three sweaters, two shirts and one belt… $179 😀 I am set for winter!

    I personally love Ross Dress for Less (similar to TJ Maxx), Uptown Cheapskate, SOMETIME's Plato's Closet, and a site/app called Poshmark.

    And sometimes you can find sale/clearance deals at JC Penny, Dillard's, or Belk.

    I love going to the outlets for the holiday sales. My favorites are Banana Republic, Loft, and Nine West for great work clothes. Also, I found a dry cleaner that charges $2.75 for any article of clothing. Even a mediocre top or pants look much nicer starched.

    Charming Charlie is awesome for jewelry to dress up simple pieces. I agree that accessories make the outfit.
