Women's Work Wardrobe: The Art of Dressing for Work
Jul 22, 2023Finding the perfect balance between professionalism and personal style is key to creating a versatile and dynamic women's work wardrobe. Dressing up for work doesn't necessarily mean wearing full suit every day. In fact, embracing your personal style can inject excitement and creativity into your professional attire. Let's explore how you can maintain professionalism while adding your own unique flair to each workday.
Mondays
I opt for a polished outfit that exudes confidence and sets the tone for a productive week ahead. Try incorporating tailored pieces, such as a well-fitted trouser and heels, to showcase your professionalism. Remember, the key is to feel empowered and ready to conquer any challenges that come your way.
Tuesdays
Tuesdays are usually packed with meetings for me, so it's essential to dress up while prioritizing comfort. Wearing a skirt hits both these marks. I'm loving this one from Reiss. Pairing it with a body suit underneath creates a seamless foundation that requires minimal fuss. To create a polished look for meetings, simply add a blazer like this one, it's a splurge but absolutely worth every penny in my book and is so versatile.
Wednesdays
If you, like me, are responsible for afternoon carpool duties, it's a good idea to choose comfortable yet stylish bottoms. I love wearing a polished jean, like these from Paige, paired with a fun sweater and tank combination. You can also consider incorporating vibrant patterns or colors that reflect your personal style while still maintaining a professional appearance. Adding a touch of your personality allows your true self to shine through.
Thursdays and Fridays
Thursdays and Fridays often offer more flexibility in terms of dress code. You can choose to dress up for important client meetings and presentations or go for a more relaxed attire as you wrap up the week. Dressing up in a tweed skirt, tailored blouse and these Mary Jane loafers will certainly leave a lasting cool-girl impression. Alternatively, you can embrace smart-casual outfits with a collared button down dress and denim jacket. Pair with a tall boot, like these Nordstrom Anniversary Sale finds to add a dressed up vibe.
Maintaining professionalism in the workplace doesn't mean sacrificing personal style or feeling trapped in a rigid dress code. Make sure to incorporate your personal flair into your work attire, by creating a dynamic wardrobe that reflects your personality. Remember, dressing up for work is an opportunity to express yourself, boost confidence, and set a positive tone for each day of the week.
