How to Style Patterned Trousers for Work

Weekly workwear highlight

Hey Sweeties,

I can’t believe how quickly Friday seems to come around, not that I am complaining but it’s scary how quickly life goes by… and we’re now in June! JUNE! We’re half way through the year already, how crazy!

Anyway, as always, another week means another work outfit highlight for you lovelies and this week my focus is on pattern, and how you can incorporate it into your work look while still remaining formal/business casual. I love these patterned trousers from Warehouse, I admit that I had to play around with some looks before feeling confident I was still looking appropriate, but I am delighted with the result.

Simple Summer Work Style with Stiletto Heels & a Printed Scarf

Weekly workwear highlight

Summer work style done simply.

Another week, another outfit pick. I love this simple summer work style, particularly over these warmer months as it feels light, fresh and professional.

The addition of the stiletto heels help elevate the outfit up a notch but I do also sometimes wear this summer work style with flats and it still looks perfectly okay for the office. I also think the animal print scarf adds that additional level of fun and interest to the overall look.

I love these stiletto heels from Morgan

Jumper: New Look (very old)

Scarf: Accessorise

Trousers: River Island

Shoes: Morgan/Schuh 

The trousers from River Island are such a work staple and fit like a great pair of leggings and I love the silhouette they allow me, particularly when paired with heels. Black trousers are every woman’s work wear wardrobe staple and they go with literally everything any day, week, month or season.

I am a big fan of scarves, as mentioned above they can provide a fun element to an outfit; be a point of interest, but also not every woman likes to have her stomach on show (I don’t mean literally of course) and a light scarf is a nice but practical way to add that level of coverage.

With my hair wrapped up in a top knot, this really is my favourite super simple summer work style.

How to Jazz up a Work Outfit with Leopard Print Heels

Weekly workwear highlight

Hey Sweeties,

I know it’s been a while and for that I apologise but all being well, at least for the summer while the day is light enough for longer to get the photography done, Weekly Work wear Highlight is back!

As you know I have recently started a new job and with that a new opportunity to freshen up my look. Next week I have two posts scheduled showing you all  some new clothes I have recently picked up, and also how I might style them for the work place. So with that in mind, this week’s work-wear highlight is an outfit you have probably seen before but demonstrates how I like to interpret ‘business casual’ while injecting some fun elements (hint: leopard print heels!).

Styling a Pair of Red Herring Trousers for Work

Weekly workwear highlight

Hey Sweeties,

Another week, another outfit… but this time I haven’t needed the services of the work lift!

The below outfit is one of my regular favourite combinations, I bought the trousers several years ago while I was working at Debenhams. Had they not been tried on by a customer and bought into the changing rooms, I wouldn’t have been aware of their existance. I remember quickly disappearing to the floor below to scout a pair out for myself!

Cardigan: H&M

Top: Warehouse

Trousers: Red Herring/Debenhams

Shoes: Accessorise

 

I hope you all have had a good week and have some great weekend plans!

Until next time x
