After the holidays, I put a comment on my Facebook page asking readers to let me know what they wanted to see more of and many of you said you wanted to see more work wear inspired looks. I TOTALLY get where y’all are coming from because I have to go to work each day too and you’re so right, it’s hard to look cute, let along get dolled up everyday just to sit at a desk and see no one! I have found in y experience that if I plan my work outfits ahead and actually put effort in, then I actually get more excited about work. Well, not “excited”:), but it does give me a better attitude at the start of the day and it actually makes me sit up straighter, smile a little more, etc. Anyone else? It’s not just work though, it’s any situation. If you feel put together, you’re going to be more confident throughout the day and don’t we all want that? YES.

My answer to the work question always comes back to transitional items for me (i.e. blazers, great black pants both skinny and wide legged, blouses, etc). This blazer is one of my newest favorites and I know it will be accompanying me to the office and for cocktails this spring (it’s also currently on sale!). I love anything that can serve a dual purpose because let’s be real, I don’t want want to have a “work” wardrobe and then a “real” one, I want to have one and actually like what’s in it! Which speaking of, I’ve been putting of cleaning my closet, oy.

    Such a cute look for work. That blazer is perfect, love the color and those stripes. I wear a lot of black so that would help with a fab pop of color. Great piece to have for sure!

    That blazer is gorgeous and it’s something I would definitely wear to work. I love how your tank & pants look like a jumpsuit. Good luck with your closet this weekend! I need to tackle mine as well, but our storage room needs some attention. Ugh!
