You may remember my first post (LHS pic), you may also remember I explained how the by replacing the skirt and heels with these utility pants and shoes would transform this corporate outfit to a weekend one!
I do this often, I don’t tend to buy clothes for work and clothes for play, I buy clothes that I like and I use alternating combinations, shoes and accessories to adapt them to the situation.
This does three things:
1) It gives me a lot more outfit options for both scenarios;
2) It stops me looking boring and conventional at work; and
3) It stops me looking sloppy on my days off.
Now obviously this won’t work for everyone, what companies considers corporate or work attire varies. But if like me, you work in an industry where you can be a little creative with what you wear, and instead you tend to throw on the same black or grey slacks white shirt and cardi every day and keep your nice/exciting clothes for weekends perhaps it’s time to try something new!
