Summer break is almost over and everyone is getting busy back to work these days. Do you find your Monday to Friday wardrobe a little uninspiring? You need to look professional but also want to incorporate the season’s trends? We’ve done all the research to find ultimate office outfits, from classy to casual–suit up!
Classy Chic
The classic office wardrobe usually contains well-tailored suits and a variaty of button-down shirts, maybe some pencil skirts. To bring your closet up-to-date, we recommend to upgrade this iconic style with some extra sparkle and shine. This season might be the right time to make a transition and ditch your killer office heels for serious looking flats. Some patent Oxford lace-up shoes will polish up your outfit immediately and look much more sophisticated. Oversized blazers, pointed collars, coarse textiles like tweed, large chequered or pinstriped patterns, give classy outfits a masculine and modern twist. On the other hand bring in some femininity and go for playful accessories like that tasseled scarf from Burberry, and the timeless elegant hoops with the pavé setting from Cadenzza. A large tote will always be the first choice when it comes to office bags. Stick with something structured that won‘t look sloppy, but still provides space for paperwork, tablet, cell phone, cosmetic essentials and co.
Feeling comfortable but looking effortlessly chic and smart won’t work in your hoody and your active wear – but with the new and easy monochrome or bi-colored combinations, mainly seen at the Fall/Winter runway shows by Jil Sander and Victoria Beckham. Go for some cosy knit-dress, combined with a large briefcase and some midi heels or an unconventional female suit of culottes or a wide skirt with a wool-blended coat or jacket. Best combination: a pleated midi skirt plus some comfy neck sweater and leather boots in contrasting colors. Whether your job is ultra-corporate or incredibly creative – high street options from Uniqlo, Cos and Massimo Dutti offer a wide range of beautiful pieces to combine with a well-tailored blazer, a button-down shirt, a designer coat and a high-quality bag. To complete this look, invest in a timeless but fashionable watch, like the „City Watch“ from Swarovski and give your skin a fresh and healthy glow with a soft hint of colour, i.e. with Laura Mercier‘s „Tinted Moisturizer“.
If you‘re very much into fashion, you can stop wondering what to wear to work to look as stylish as you do outside the office. We mean working this season’s key trends into your office outfits shouldn‘t be a struggle this year. On the catwalks, designers like Balenciaga and Trussardi presented extremely self-confident outfits, from mannish coats, bold shoulders and wide trousers to colorful ties and striking hats. Fabrics from crushed velvet to brocade and leather to semi-transparent chiffon are ready to be mixed and matched. Pimp up your look with some excentric accessoires like pointed mules and a stylish headgear. And don‘t forget to put on an opaque, ultra-matte lipcolor like the weightless liquid lipstick by Giorgio Armany Beauty.
