While most of my work days are spent in denim and slippers, I know that isn’t the case for every woman who reads this blog.  With ‘return to the office’ in full effect for many lawyers, staffers, and corporate girlies, I would be remised if my own “workwear” needs pushed me to abandon the ladies […]

My mother is to blame for this.  Whatever anyone tells you about Terri — kind, generous, doting grandmother — she is also a pusher of athleisure wear.  Athleta pants and tops in particular.  And finally, after two years, she convinced me to buy a pair of wide leg, cropped pants “just to try.”

My work dress wardrobe has become a bit dark.  Lots of black.  Lots of navy.  So I thought I would add a great print in a work-friendly color palette to liven things up.

One of my wardrobe themes is choosing pieces that are basics with something extra.  A draped blouse takes a standard layering piece and gives a bit more.  Here are two ways to style it for the office, whether your workplace is casual or formal dress.

It’s difficult to find style icons who wear work-appropriate business suits.  When stylish people who aren’t lawyers or government staffers wear suits, they usually wear brightly colored or sparkly ones.  So when a bright start like Amal Clooney appears to make work clothes look chic, you embrace her fiercely.

On some days, I wear a nice dress to work — usually when I’m meeting clients.  On Fridays or holidays, I wear denim.  But on the in-between days, I like to find looks that are relaxed business attire.  Looks that say lawyer, but one who works in a casual office.  This outfit is such a […]

Next week, I begin hybrid work, meaning I can be called into the office for meetings any day.  This means that I need to up my daily attire a bit.  And this outfit makes use of some pieces that I already own to create a fabulous business casual look.
