It is so hard to believe that Fall is just around the corner; especially since it was over 98 degrees in Louisiana this weekend. With the calendar saying one thing and mother nature saying another it can be hard to decide what to wear to work. I get this question a lot from new individuals entering the workforce.

Today, I am teaming up with White House Black Market to show you some of my favorite pieces to wear to the office.

Petite Piped Blouse

I love this shirt, as it is not a traditional white shirt, but unique with the black piping. The piping is around the neckline, shoulders, and cuffs. It is fully lined and is made of a matte jersey material. This is the perfect transition shirt. You can wear it with a pair of black trousers or under a suit. I have gotten numerous compliments about this shirt. Every woman should have a staple white shirt in their wardrobe and this ecru colored one is perfect. One of my mentees just purchased it and she says she loves it and is going to get in black also.

Petite Pleat-Detail Shell

This is another staple piece. Clever draping  transforms the classic shell into a wardrobe necessity. This top pretty much defines “transition piece” in my opinion. The color is perfect for fall, and the sleeveless style keeps you cool until fall weather actually arrives. The pleats in the front make it so flattering on anyone. I love also wearing this out at night with a pair of cropped white jeans. It is a piece that can also take you from day to night.

Floral Ruffle Blouse

This piece really excited me when I saw it  and wanted all my readers to get this piece if you get anything this Fall.  A new perspective on florals  deconstructed blooms is scattered throughout this style, finished with texture-rich ruffles.  I’ve also heard that ruffles will be trending this season, so it’s right on trend there. This is a beautiful top that can be dressed up or down. There is a clasp in the front to bring the blouse together, however, I’ve found that leaving it open works as well. I will be wearing this more often when the Fall season rolls around and the air gets chilly. I’ve worn this with black pants, white pants, and jeans. Received many compliments on this blouse from coworkers.

Now that we have the perfect blouses, let’s find the coordinates to go with it.

How many of you really wake up and start singing of joy cause it’s Monday, and use the extra hour before work to try on work outfits ideas with a smile on your face, only to finally, in an even more fake-happy state of mind, pick a colorful posh combo office attire to go with your Monday happiness?

If this is you, then read no more.

If however, every week 3 out of 5 times you find yourself running late, buried in clothes that to a mere mortal would make a killer office look, but to you they’re all ‘stuff’ that brings out the fashion monster inside you, leaving you looking stupid in your underwear staring at piles, and I mean  piles of clothes thinking ”Great! I’ve got nothing to wear”, then I’ve got a couple of  things to help you.

Plaid Blazer Jacket

We leaned in on the plaid trend, thanks to this blazer with a smart seam technique that visibly slims the midsection. I got this jacket and matching pants. The colors are perfect for early Fall. The fabric is light, but at the same time, there is a good stretch to it. These pieces are very versatile and stylish looking. It is very professional yet not overwhelming. Enjoy fashion and always wear at least 1 statement piece, clash styles, use a classy look for a start base and then add items according to your personality and job.

Grid-Pattern Jacket

This jacket puts a new spin on the traditional black suit. The most common and easiest way to dress for the office and nail the wear to work situation, this work outfit is perfect for all jobs. It has matching pants but you could also wear it with black or white trousers. Always wear a statement piece, or add a fun item to your look.

I hope that these tips will give you lots of inspiration on how to dress for the office. Remember black and white with a pop of color, will always win the day.
