All Work + Tons of Play

When I first entered the workforce, I made the mistake of wearing drab colors and boring suits in an effort to look “professional”. But over time, I learned how to inject my own style and have a little fun while still looking polished and put-together. With that being said, I still find myself getting stuck in a workplace style rut from time to time. That’s why I curated my favorite office looks on Pinterest to give me some inspiration whenever I’m feeling blah about my business attire.

Closet Raid: {Another} 30 Day Capsule Wardrobe Using Just 10 Items

10 Item Capsule Wardobe{Comme des Garcons Striped Tee, Uniqlo Button-Down Tunic Blouse and Polka Dot Leggings Pants, H&M Denim Shirt, Prabal Gurung x Target Shirtdress, Ralph Lauren Short-Sleeve Sweater, 7 for All Mankind Cardigan, J. Crew Black Flippy Skirt and Blue No. 2 Pencil Skirt, Old Navy Rockstar Skinny Jeans}

Yessir, it’s time for another 30-day outfit roundup featuring just 10 items of clothing.  This time around, I decided to give myself a little more leeway with shoes and accessories.  In case you missed the first go ’round, here’s a few tips on how you can create your own 10-item capsule wardrobe:

  1. Pick your favorite pair of jeans.  I went with bright red skinnies to switch things up a bit.
  2. Choose a color scheme.
  3. Pick 3 additional bottoms (pants, skirts, shorts, whatever floats your boat).
  4. Pick out a fabulous dress that can be worn different ways.  Last time I chose a trench dress, and this time around I went with a rainbow-colored shirtdress.
  5. Toss in a cardigan or blazer (or two).
  6. Last, but not least, choose 3-4 tops that match with all of your bottoms.

One final note: go crazy with accessories, if you want!  Scarves and belts can be total game changers.
