Working Nine To Fine
When your alarm goes off daily at 7am and you roll out of bed, you don’t want to have to think too hard, especially when you haven’t had your coffee yet. My suggestion is to choose a sleek dress for mornings made easy. This look promises to make Monday to Friday effortless. Pair it with a smart robe coat and it will take you from 9am coffee to 9pm cocktails whatever the weather.
Casual Fridays
Depending on your workplace the definition of the enigmatic casual Friday could mean anything from denim shorts and Converse to merely something slightly less formal than a skirt suit. I’m walking the line between both here with a suggestion that is casual yet definitely still smart and polished. The bonus is a cape-style tailored blazer is such a versatile staple you’re sure to wear it again and again. Be sure to have some fun with your accessories. I love some stackable bangles.
The Interview
If you’ve been on the job hunt and you’ve secured an interview then well done! Now the next step is to impress them in person. When it comes to the outfit my tip is to go for a sassy-take on corporate wear, and while you need to look reasonably conservative, ensure you steer clear of frumpy. A pencil skirt and crisp white shirt is a safe go-to, pair it with mid-heel court shoes and a tote bag. Also, a watch is a great extra accessory because it shows you value time.
