If you have been following along for awhile, then you know that my dress code at work is pretty laid back. I only have to look business casual when I am working with clients. Day to day, I am able to wear jeans. I have been receiving emails lately asking what I would wear to work if I had to dress up. I have been replying directly, but the emails have become so common lately I thought I would share my thoughts with the rest of you!

I recently discovered the shop Persunmall have been very impressed with their selection of clothing. (I could seriously spend hundreds of dollars there right now!) Everything featured today is from their shop!

The key to dressing for work is to choose structured pieces. A blazer is a no-brainer for the office, but a fun colored one makes it more exciting. If a pink blazer isn't your style, I love this one. It is tweed with leather detailing and is so on trend right now! I also really love this jacket, and the price cannot be beat!

If you're more of a skirt person, the below look is for you.

A pencil skirt is the usual skirt people reach for in the office place. I'm a huge fun of them, but why not try to switch it up!? A skater skirt or a midi skirt can be just as appropriate. A collared shirt is also an office necessity, but pick one in a fun pattern to make it more personal. Not a fan of hearts? Try this polka dot one or this beige one instead!

And can we just take a moment to talk about these flats?! I tried so hard to not feature the same shoe in each outfit, but they were just too cute! They come in multiple colors and are an incredible alternative to the Valentino 'Rockstud' ballet flat. (The Valentino's are almost $700 and the Persunmall ones are less than $40!)

I hope you all had a fabulous weekend!! There are fun collaborations and giveaways happening this week so be sure to check back!

I would love it if you would follow me on GFC or BlogLovin'!
