Belt it out

Sorry I've been MIA babes - I am having a hard time settling into my new work schedule - and sometimes my anxiety gets the better of me.

I have a couple of pics of this outfit that I wore to one of my workshop presentations lately.

I picked up this super cute little polka-dot dress from Giant Tiger a while ago and while I kept reaching for it, it just wasn't doing it for me. 

I finally realized that what this dress was missing was a belt. A big fat belt. It's a little early 2000s style-wise, but I love what a wide belt does for the plus sized waistline.

Leggings because a) my legs are legit COVERED in bruises (what can I say, I'm super-clumsy in real life.... I legit tripped over our vacuum the other day) and b) because my job involves a lot of sitting, standing crouching and carrying - so shorter skirts with no leggings are a no go.

Still on the lookout for a few items to expand my workwear wardrobe. Anyone know any places that sell decent separates that aren't going to break the bank?

This is where I link up!
