okay, I need some advice from the masses out there : )
what do you think about this blouse paired with black dress pants?
I am TERRIBLE with clothes and typically do very simple, casual. I went shopping today in desperation for something new, slightly fancier, and different for both normal wear and the coming holidays (Thanksgiving & Christmas with the new fiance''s family and huge extended family (most of whom I''ve never met before).
Is this "appropriate" for nicer events with new future mother-in-law, older relatives, etc...? We''re not talking oober-formal dinner, but a nice family get together and some home holiday parties... I was a bit surpised by the number of sleeveless, or very light tops that were in many of the stores I went to, including AnnTaylorLoft... isn''t it supposed to be winter?? Do people typically wear lots of these shortsleeves/sleeveless tops in Nov-Feb?? I''m unobservant enough to not even know!
I really liked this blouse and bought it, but am unsure whether it fits the bill for Thanksgiving?? Maybe a better item for a night out around New Years with the fiance?? Here it is:

Man I stink at being a girl! Clearly wearing scrubs to work every day has eliminated my ability to dress like a woman
I really want to make a good impression -- not be the bizarre new fiance who has whacked out fashion sense
I''ve got other options of course -- a few nice, simple can''t-go-wrong sweaters, but I''m trying to be more interesting than that!
What are YOU wearing for the holidays???
