Summer is starting to feel like a distant memory for some of us, and many of us are getting back into the office mood. Leaving behind linen dresses, comfy shorts and bright kimonos doesn’t need to be a sad moment though… Enter your chic workwear edit!
If your head is still at the beach or the camping site, don’t worry! Our Personal Shoppers have compiled the best workwear and office looks for this Autumn. We’ll show you how to adapt different outfits to the style that best suits you, so that you can find what works for you and your everyday life.
Casual office looks
No two offices are the same and, for this reason, dress codes vary, and it is not always necessary to dress very formally to go to work. We propose several casual style outfits that will help you feel like you’ve made an effort without losing your casual charm.
A look with jeans to go to the office
If you feel comfortable wearing jeans to the office, you needn’t lose them for the 9 to 5. Elevate your style by choosing dark shades of denim and wearing other more formal garments, such as a fitted blazer with a simple navy t-shirt underneath. Finish off your look with a pair of ballerina flats and you’ll be ready.
An office look with trainers
If you work in an office where you can get away with wearing trainers, don’t hesitate! Put together a total casual look with a pair of palazzo trousers, a basic T-shirt and an oversized blazer to take the trend to the extreme. If you have to choose a colour for your outfit, choose an off-white or ecru shade, as it is suitable and sophisticated both in Summer and Winter.
Trendy office looks
If you love the latest trends and want to wear them to work, we give you ideas of trendy office looks that will leave no head unturned!
An office look with wide leg trousers
The trouser cut of the moment is wide-leg and high-rise. For a trendy look, wear a pair of tailored trousers in this style with an overshirt in the same colour for a monochromatic effect. Finish it all off with a pair of trainers and a maxi coat, and you’ll be comfortable and trendy!
An office look with leather or pleather items
Whether you feel a bit of a rock-chick at heart and like to take your style to the extreme, or you feel like a small dose of this trend is enough, we recommend you start by getting a pair of flattering trousers in this material. Worn with a tweed jacket, a white shirt and some kitten heels, they’ll make for an amazing outfit!
Classic office looks
If your work requires more formal and classic styles from your wardrobe, but you are looking for ways to add a stylish, modern twist, here are some tips to help you achieve just that:
A classic office look with a suit
A tailored total look is a versatile and always-safe bet for going to work. These days, you can wear a suit in a myriad of ways, and give it a more formal or informal twist depending on what you’re looking for and what your dress code calls for. If you love classic style, but want to add a touch of personality to your outfits, choose a black tailored suit with a blazer and a pair of chino trousers; take a risk with colourful or animal print stilettos at your feet to break up the sobriety of the look.
A classic office look with a skirt
If you got your hands on a pleated midi skirt this Spring-Summer, good news!: you’ll still wear it this Winter! With a Victorian blouse, an oversized blazer and a pair of mary-jane shoes with medium heels, you’ll look fantastic! This is a feminine and very classic look that would never feel out of trend. If you don’t have a pleated skirt yet or you’d like a warmer option, choose a knitted one, perfect for the coldest of work days!
Autumn must-haves for your wokwear wardrobe
When it comes to workwear clothes and accessories, there are certain must-haves that you’ll want to include in your wardrobe:
- A blazer
- A pair of chino trousers
- A white shirt
- A pair of stilettos or loafers
From Lookiero we encourage you to adapt these versatile staples to your style and to find ways to give them an innovative twist. For example, wear the blazer or chino trousers in a trendy khaki shade, swap the traditional white shirt for a navy one and find a pair of moccasins in a different tone, such as burgundy, to finish off your outfits. Paying attention to these small details will help you achieve a classic look that is flattering and formal enough for almost any office, but with a sophisticated and modern touch.
