Four Un-Boring Outfit Ideas for Work

February 11, 2013

Ahh…it’s Monday.  Do you know what you’re wearing to work today? No?  Here are four looks for the office (or classroom!) that you can recreate using the pieces you (probably) already have in your closet.

Button downs and pencil skirts are always a win.  Stick with basics or add a printed piece to amp up the un-boring factor.  And if it’s too cold for bare legs, try adding a pair or two of tights.

Black pants are classic, but navy trousers are a great staple for work too.  A multi-colored jacket with a basic tank goes great on top.

Wanting to wear a sleeveless dress?  You could either slip a cardi on top, or try out a belted blazer.

Still waiting to try the colored pants trend?  Go get a pair in red!  They look office appropriate with a neural sweater or push the boundaries a bit and try a printed top.

Now get dressed and go conquer the world!

    These all look fabulous! Especially that boucle jacket. Sometimes you just need a formula for getting dressed on a Monday, but there are so many great possibilities within these….
