How to wear a halter top to work: LOFT rosette cami

I never would have thought in a million years I could wear a halter top to work. When I think of halter top, I think of bare shoulders, exposed back and obviously against my office dress code. But I figured out a way to incorporate this gorgeous LOFT rosette cami into work my daily work attire.

Several other petites have this top but the only one I can think of is Cee- see her post here. She styled it so many different ways and I always loved seeing it one her.

I probably wouldn't wear this top by itself, even casually. It's a bit strange on me w/out the cardigan so it works great for me as a shell.  But I am loving this rosette halter cami! The color is such a pretty and bright color. I was able to get this all thanks to one of my fav bloggers- Vicky at VickysFashion. She tweeted it and I was fast enough to be the first to respond. Thanks Vicky!

So if you have a similar halter style top and want to incorporate it into your work wardrobe, just remember to cover up with a blazer or cardigan.  Another great way is a bolero shrug or open cardigan.
