Work The Workplace With Full Time Style

Tom Ford said “dressing well is a form of good manners.” Indeed, sir, we concur. And where better to be on your best behavior than the workplace? So let’s pull it together, ladies.
While showcasing the season’s edgiest trends may seem tricky, it can be done. Pro tip: adding a structured jacket and a pointy heel turns most trends work-appropriate. Off duty chic requires on duty tweaks, but we have some tips. Because being professionally stylish is it’s own reward. Don’t tell anyone in HR.
Here’s how to integrate the season’s top trends into the office with ease.

OFF-THE-SHOULDER – ON A CONFERENCE CALL
Off-the-shoulder blouses have always been considered the height of sexy, in part because of said shoulders, and, uh, no undergarments. (The original allure of the peasant blouse was based on bralessness.) Wardrobe malfunctions don’t lead to promotions, so invest in a good strapless bra. Keep the lines off this look structured, add a wide legged pant to maintain a fabric-to-skin-ratio that’s work friendly, and you’re in business.

SEQUINS- DAYTIME SHINE
Shine bright like a diamond even in the break room. Sequins are a yes, but to avoid looking like you’re going clubbing, use mindfully and in moderation. Choose a subtle color, go for it in one piece, and keep makeup matte to avoid being a human disco ball.

CORSET BELTS – PRACTICAL POSTURING
Sit up straight to command attention and project confidence? Studies show that good posture does this. Lucky for you, the corset belt trend is here to help. On the weekends, layer with a tank dress for supersexy but for your day job, keep it simple. Worn over a white blouse, these waist-cinchers are a little serious, a little kink-wink chic. Keep your pencil skirt or skinny jeans basic so they don’t pull focus away from what counts.
DENIM – DISTRESSED, EMBELLISHED, EMPOWERED
Most offices have gotten the hint that denim is acceptable office attire. That being said, if your pocket linings are exposed, you’ve gone too far. You want to land a promotion, not a ride to a music festival. Opt for artful fraying, embellishments, or the new crop with a simple slide. Decorated and destroyed, but definitely dependable.

POWER PINK – RISE UP ROSIE
Pink: it makes people happy. And happy people are terrific to work with, so get a pop of bright, blush, or rose quartz for the office and up productivity. No longer reserved for Barbie and flamingos, these hot hues pair perfectly with khaki, navy, or green. Smart contrasts show you’re ready to shake up more things than your closet.
