Close up of accessories and bag:

Had to wear "business casual" for a training course today. I left it to the last minute to check the dress code so spent a bit of time last night trying on a few outfits to wear. I always want to make a good impression on external training courses, but at the same time I didn't want to look too dressed up if everyone was wearing jeans. After about half an hour I was having no luck picking clothes so skipped that step and picked a bag instead.

This Marco Tagliaferri bag is perfect for fitting in notes and presentation packs that you accumulate on courses, plus anything else that arises. Once I had the bag, I ended up picking out this blue dress to compliment it in a few minutes. Sometimes it pays to pick accessories first! I'm much better at picking a bag for an occasion than I am picking out an outfit. ;)

How do you get dressed for events? Do you pick accessories first or last?
