Burlesque Baubles
We love the retro pin-up-with-an-edge look of Dita Von Teese, but nipple tassels don’t really fly at the office.
We’ll keep our sexy on the subtle side, wearing handcrafted necklaces by Markhed Design, with moody pieces separated into categories like Pin-Up, Macabre, and Circus on the online store. We bought the coy Stirling Silver Swinging Pinup Girl ($70), the Baby Franken Heart ($65) and the Retro 1940s Pinup ($55) to add a bit of burlesque to our boring business wear.
And if we’re also wearing a garter belt under our power suit, no one needs to know.
