An All-Weather Work Wardrobe Handbook

Considering giving your office looks a nudge towards glamour? We agree setting your workwear wardrobe is a job on its own. Whether you’re working at a creative or corporate setting, there is plenty of room for experimenting with your dictum. You don’t have to keep aside your divaesque charm in lieu of taking formal style seriously. Pops of colours, flirty elements, and chic silhouettes have made the cut to your work week. Besides investing in all-season pieces is a clever way to define your office style statement. Move over HR guidelines and seasonal restraints, because a true fashionista is a woman who identifies with her own style no matter what the weather or dress code states. 

Ahead is a guide to strike gold with the perfect balance of power and glamour with a statement that remains fresh through the weather. 

The term ‘office-appropriate’ has gotten a modern incarnation so fashionistas can rejoice! Similarly, after office-hour scenes have encouraged the designers to create more transitional designs. Reserve a couple of colourful dresses to let your hair loose post the work shift. 

Reaching out to bright colours is a quick way to fix your blue mood. A yellow-hued dress will radiate you through the back-to-back meeting with foreign liaisons while also adding an instant refreshing vibe to let you ditch that third cup of espresso that day.  

Slipping into a shirt dress is a sure-fire proven solution to your late-to-work dilemmas. A little stylish spin-off with cuts and drapes can spark office envy with almost no effort. Moreover, there’s nothing more comfy for commute and client meet-ups than these saviours. 

Skirts and modest dresses are elegant pieces that also communicate power than any other trend-led outfit. From long commutes to client meet-ups and conservative business occasions, right pairing and layering can make a perfect first impression. 

Creative workspaces or casual Fridays, whatever gives you a chance to flaunt a dash of your panache should be nailed perfectly. Imbibe a more laid back approach in wide legged or culottes trousers. Swap your button-downs with casual tops for a win-win!
