First of all I have to thank everyone who entered our FAVORITE THINGS GIVEAWAY and congratulate the winner, Miss Rachel M of SHE IS FEARLESSLY STRONG. We'll be in touch with you very soon!
Do you dress up for work? I was talking to a friend the other day and we decided that unless you are a lawyer, banker or salesperson, no one dresses up for work anymore. Do you think that's true? I'm curious to see what industries wear what. Leave me a comment with your industry and the dress code.
I'll start. I work in corporate retail/eCommerce and no one dresses up for work. I get a little more dolled up when I have something social going on after work (which I did the day I wore this), but for the most part I'm pretty casual. I don't wear my HOT PINK CONVERSE or t shirts, but I do a lot of blazers, dark denim and flats. I guess we can call that smart casual?
WEARING: h&m blush blazer (VERY SIMILAR) & blouse (SIMILAR), GAP ULTRA SKINNY PANTS, j crew statement necklace (BAUBLEBAR NECKLACE), mojo moxy bow pumps (GREAT OPTION FOR WORK), MAC REBEL LIPSTICK
WORN TO: work followed by dinner
I work in investment banking in NYC and our environment is business casual but most of the men do rock suits or a shirt with a tie. I wear suits,dresses,pencil skirts etc. We are not allowed to wear jeans at all even on Fridays(I do..lol! I wear red ones). During the Xmas holiday-New Years you can wear jeans and the day after Thanksgiving.
ReplyDeleteWell, I'm not a lawyer, but I am a paralegal (same work, not the same pay basically). I think it is debatable as to whether I "dress up" for work. I think I do and my boss thinks I do, but I think some people think I get away with way more than I should in a law office. Love the blazer!
ReplyDeleteoh my! I love those shoes! As always you look amazing. Well for me I always dress up for work even on casual jeans Friday, I find a way to put in my style with a pair of jeans. Living in Texas and working in an oil and gas industry we are more business casual for the most part I have found that I seem more over dressed most times. But hey who cares right? lol
ReplyDeleteSo, you killed two birds with one stone. Beautiful!!
ReplyDeleteLove the blush accents. great look!

I am a Director of a child care center. Our dress code requires the teachers to wear khakis or pants (no jeans) and a smock over their shirts. Because I'm upfront and meeting with parents, I dress up my business casual attire with scarves and accessories.
ReplyDeleteYour such a cutie I love how the necklace compliments the outfit

Good post.
ReplyDeleteI work in Healthcare insurance: Blue Cross Blue Shield and the dress code consists of slacks, khakis, oxford shirts, preppy wear, etc., or as you stated "smart casual."
As far as your attire in pics, I like how you often match (color coordination) necklace to blazer/wrist wear to blouse. I always thought that was pretty dope.
perfect office look!
ReplyDeleteI love the combination of blush, black, and white. It's the perfect way to add color to an outfit. Great outfit choice as always!

I work for a big manufacturing company, but in the corporate end of things. We have NO dress code at work and in the beginning I found it extremely difficult to figure out what to wear. But now I just wear mainly business casual with scarves for accessories. I always find it funny though when I think I look fairly casual and other folks ask me if I had an interview? lol.
