Do you ever find yourself buying more work clothes than clothes to wear out when you grab drinks? Well, I tend to do that and work clothes are not cheap! I would have to say that my work style is very young and hip. I don’t like pant suits. I’m sorry, if you are under 40 you need to stay away from a matching blazer and pants, let alone a pencil skirt and a blazer! For the love of god ladies, we are not in the 80s! Work style has changed drastically, you can go for a nice mens wear look: Blazer, silk blouse, skinny cigarette pants and flats. Or you can go for a fitted sheath dress with a nice pair of pumps and chunky jewelry. Below is an image of some of my favorite pieces at the moment. I will list them below the image so you can find and buy online!
1. Steve Madden Unityy Pump in Blush or Black Suede. extremely comfy and not too high of a heel
2. Longchamp Le Pilage Tote in Black. Make sure you get the long handles and the larger size so you can fit your laptop or iPad in it.
3. Black Pashmina. Perfect for when it may be cold outside and inside the office. It also works great for a late night wrap.
4. Zara Satin Black Blazer. This blazer is the perfect long length for either a sheath dress or skinny pants.
5. Jcrew No. 2 Pencil Skirt. This skirt comes in every color. What is great about Jcrew skirts is that they come in petite, regular or tall and they fit amazing.
6. Banana Republic Sofia Lightweight wool dress. This dress hits at the perfect length on the legs and the short puffed sleeves make it feminine.
7. Jcrew Talitha Blouse. You always need to have a couple long and short sleeve silk blouses in basic colors.
8. Zara Ponte Di Roma Knit Blazer in Brown. This blazer can be worn for work or play and it is so soft.
9. Jcrew Origami Sheath Dress in Charcoal or Red. Origami is in and it makes a simple sheath dress really stand out. Perfect for day or night.
10. Jcrew Jenna’s V-Neck Cardigan. Everyone needs a couple different colored cardigans and you can only wear a blazer with so many outfits. Switch it up and throw on a cardigan.
11. Jcrew Cafe Capri in any color (black and tan a must). Besides the No. 2 pencil skirt, I highly recommend these pants. They fit great and they are the perfect cut. I don’t like typical work slacks. I like skinny legged pants with flats or pumps.
Enjoy, COCO
