Today it’s time for the 23rd installment of Conner’s Closet!!! WOW! NUMBER 23! I can hardly believe it!
I’m just so thankful that when I had this idea a couple of years ago that Conner was excited about the idea too and more than happy to come play dress up over here once a month. I know that there are so many ladies that very much appreciate the time and effort that she puts into these posts, and I’m so happy to share her office style with all of you.
In case you are new here, Conner is my little sister, and she works in HR for a hospital system. Here she is with her little guy, Brody! I MEAN. HOW CUTE ARE THEY. But lemme tell ya, don’t let this precious picture fool you. That boy will give you a run for your money. And so did his mama when she was little. #sassy #karma
And we’ve got some news to share with you! Conner is pregnant! Conner, her hubby, and Brody are excited to welcome a new little nugget into their family in October!!! Congratulations, sister!

Conner’s thoughts on all of her outfits today will be in italics, and my thoughts will be in regular font. Let me start out by saying that her super cute outfits almost make me want to work in an office. #almost
Let’s Get Started!
*************************************
Floral v-neck Henley Blouse and Slim Pencil Pants Marisa (soft citron)
I wore this outfit to work on Monday and received SO many compliments. You can’t go wrong with a Henley blouse from LOFT and this one definitely goes on my list of favorites. I can struggle with v-neck blouses, but this one fits perfectly. The blouse is lined so you don’t have to wear a cami underneath (score!). I absolutely love the print and the colors. You can dress it up with a fun colored pair of pants like the yellow ones I’m wearing (it also looks fabulous with the pink Marissa pants from the LOFT, too!), or you can dress it down with a pair of jeans.
Next, let’s talk about the Slim Marisa Pencil pants in soft citron. You guys, I’m in love. These pants are super comfortable and wear SO well. It’s important to mention that I usually opt for the skinny Marisa pants, but nowadays, comfort is key, so I decided to go with the slim pants instead! These pants are a little wider through the hips and thighs, so you may want to size down if you like the skinnier fit of the Marisa pants. I’m wearing a 0 regular in the pants and an XS regular in the top (TTS).
My Vince Camuto grey suede pumps are sold out, but I recommend these pumps in storm grey suede or these in Dove Grey (40% OFF right now!) as an alternative – both are super cute!
CONNER! THIS OUTFIT IS DARLING!!!! I love these pants so much! And I’m so excited that both pieces are ON SALE!

Ruffle Henley Shell, Navy Marisa Pants, Bouquet ¾ sleeve cardigan
Can you guys tell I’m really into the color yellow this year? How can you not be? It’s EVERYWHERE! I absolutely love this yellow, pink, and navy combination. It’s so fresh and screams spring! The cardigan is a very light pink with yellow, blue, and white flowers. It’s so comfortable and versatile – it also looks fantastic with the yellow pants I featured in the first picture!
This cardigan would also be super cute over a navy dress. I decided to brighten up the outfit with the golden yellow ruffle Henley shell, but if yellow isn’t your thing, I recommend purchasing the same shell in whisper white. The shell has ruffle sleeves and is also super cute on its own without the cardi!
The navy Marisa skinny pants (00), the shell (XS), and the cardigan (XS) are all true to size. All three items are machine washable and I either hang or lay the items flat to dry.
I need this cardigan. I will love wearing it with a tee and jeans, and I’m pumped it’s ALL ON SALE!

Garden Tie Waist Dress
OMG. This dress. It is the perfect addition to my wardrobe. I honestly can’t get over how INSANELY comfortable it is! It is so soft…I feel like I’m wearing my favorite robe! The drapey tie at the waist of this dress and slight rouching are super flattering (especially around the tummy area) and the material does not wrinkle…that’s right, no need to iron this dress! Hallelujah! It’s super cute with this long white cardigan, but I can also see it being adorable with the must-have denim jacket! I’m wearing my Splendid wedges in this photo, but they’re from last season. I recommend this nude wedge.
The dress (regular small) and cardigan (regular XXS) are true to size. Both are machine washable and I will hang them to dry.
Cutest pregnant person EVER! I love seeing that tiny little baby bump peeking out! This seems like a dress that will be flattering on everybody, and I know that so many ladies are going to grab this long cardigan. I’m so happy it comes in several colors!

Bouquet Ruffle Henley Shell, sheer open cardigan, Marisa Skinny Pants
Unfortunately, the top I’m wearing in the photo is now sold out (womp womp), but I’ve provided another suggestion that I saw in the store and know will look spectacular! The bouquet ruffle Henley shell is absolutely gorgeous! All of the colors make the top SO versatile. It looks wonderful with the Marisa Skinny Ankle pants in coastal grey and also looks phenomenal with the yellow pants from this post OR the pink pants from my previous post! For a more casual look, you can wear the shell with blue or white jeans!
The white sheer open cardigan goes perfectly with this outfit and is perfectly for a chilly office during the spring and summer. I’m wearing my favorite go to Marisa Skinny pants.
The shirt (XS), cardigan (XS), and pants (00 regular) are all true to size. All of the pieces are machine washable and I will lay them flat to dry.
Well, this outfit is adorable. And although I love your top and am sad it’s sold out, I think I like the option you gave even more!

This next outfit is from last month’s post, but the sweater is now on SUPER SALE (like ON SALE, and then an additional 50% OFF!), so I thought you needed to know!
Floral Mixed Media Sweater and Skinny Marissa Pants
Business in the front, party in the back! You guys – this light weight sweater is probably my favorite thing in my closet right now! The front is a heather gray color and the back is a gorgeous navy blue, gold, gray, and light blue print. It’s to die for! This sweater also transitions well from business to casual – I paired it with skinny jeans and a pair of gray booties for a date night last weekend!
It’s super comfortable and it’s not sheer, so you don’t need to wear a cami underneath. And again, I’m wearing my navy Marisa skinny pants…just get the pants already! Both pieces are TTS (XXS and 00) and machine washable, but I will either hang them or lay them flat to dry.
I own several LOFT mixed media sweaters, and I love them all! They are so easy to wear and always look great.

That’s it for today, y’all! A huge thank you to Conner for highlighting such darling outfits! Even if you don’t work in an office, all of these outfits are great for church too. See everybody back here on Friday!
Shay Shull says
I am so excited for them!!!! She is just the cutest!!
Narci says
Absolutely darling! Connor makes me want to work in an office very single month.
Caley says
I am super jealous she can still fit into her Marisa skinny pants!! I am due in October too and this week I realized I have gotten to the point wear I cannot clasp them ?? any tips for how to stay in them longer??
Sheaffer says
Hi, Caley! I’ll see if she has any tips and tricks! xoxo
Caley says
That would be wonderful! I wore mine today with a looser top from Loft in hopes that if I have to unclasp them later no one can tell!! Love your site – you and Conner have definitely given me inspiration for outfits the past few years!
Cami says
A hair tie in the button! Wrap it around the button, thred it through the hole, and back around the button. I wore my normal pants for a while still while pregnant that way!
Sheaffer says
Hey, Cami! These aren’t buttons. 🙁 It’s more like a clasp.
Caley says
Thanks Cami – that’s a great tip!! I will have to try that trick with some of my pants with buttons!
Juliana Grace says
Yay, love these! I love those colorful pants. They are so fun!
