My Feminine Workweek Outfits

 

 

Good Morning Everyone,

Goodness we are back in the 40s! It is freezing here! So disappointing but oh well. On Friday, my husband and I went to our first Guild cocktail party! We had a really nice time. 

 

I wanted to be comfortable, so I wore my fav blush lace blouse, shimmer skirt, Ann Taylor pumps, and Ann Taylor pearl clutch. My husband wore is white blazer and navy slacks. I told him that he had a “Great Gatsby” look. Do you also notice the Sarah Flint scarf in his handkerchief holder? 

 

 

We had a great time! I also finished my first shifts as a docent. I will be sure to share the Showhouse for this year later this week.

In today’s post, I am sharing what I would wear to work on a normal basis.

In this photo you will see a pink blush blouse. It is the same blouse that I am wearing in the photo with my husband. I try to have pieces in my wardrobe that I can wear to multiple places. I actually have this blouse in cream and blush. I love it! It is from Express (last season). The skirt is actually from Amazon and I have it in 3 different colors. The floral tote is from Express . It’s still available and only $47! The cream sandals are from Ann Taylor and are so chic! 

 

 

One of my favorite work week perfumes is Aerin Lauder Rose de Grasse. Every time I wear it people follow me and ask what it is! It’s lovely!

 

 

Next is this beautiful lace top that I found on the Express clearance rack! I paid only $20 for it and I normally wear it with a cardigan if the office is too cold and I brooch to close up the chest part. My skirt is from H&M. I purchased it about 10 years ago. My shoes are the beautiful Rose’s Parker Sling from Sarah Flint and my handbag is the Louis Vuitton On the Go tote. 

 

 

I would wear these vintage clip earrings with this outfit to the office. They add just enough sparkle to my outfit. 

 

 

This is a third example of what I would wear to the office. My blue blouse is from Ann Taylor (last season). I have it paired with a regular black skirt, my Sarah Flint Perfect Emma Gracie. My handbag is from MME.Mink. Everything in this photo is sold out. 

 

 

I would pair this outfit with my earrings from Nicole Bathie. 

 

 

Here is a fourth example. I love this sage green blouse that I got from Ann Taylor about 4 years ago. The skirt is the navy version of my pink skirt from Amazon, the heels are from T.J. Maxx, the pearls are J Crew (you can find these on Poshmark), and the floral tote is Tory Burch which I found at the outlet mall 2 years ago. 

 

 

I have paired this with one of my favorite scents, Cashmere Mist by Donna Karan

 

 

And my last outfit inspiration is this blue and white dress that I found at Old Navy last summer, my Sarah Flint Perfect Emma Gracie, my Mme.Mink tote and J Crew pearls. I have never been afraid to mix colors and patterns. I believe mixing colors and patterns makes your wardrobe fun and you will wear more of it. I am not matchy-matchy and never will be. Wear what you love! 

 

 

With this outfit I wore my favorite scent from Bath and Body Works, Night Blooming Jasmine. I hope they bring it back. I adore it! 

I hope that you found some wardrobe inspiration from my looks. Let me know in the comments section below what your favorite items were. I would love to know. Have a great day!

    We’re back in the 40s today too, unfortunately!

    I would love to work in the office with you! Your style and elegance is a breath of fresh air. Are you working from home much anymore?

      Aww I would love to have you in our office! Thank you so much for the compliment! We have a 3/2 telework schedule. We are in office for 3 days and telework 2 days. I normally don’t take a telework day but when I do it’s only 1 day.

    40 degrees, no ma’am. Oh this weather is beyond wishy washy. Beautiful outfit pairings Mrs Shockley. So elegant, very appropriate. I’m still home full time as my office hasn’t called us back yet. I’m actually extremely happy about that. My office can be a disaster zone when it comes to dress and grooming. If I’m called back, I’ll be prepared.

      Lucky you! You still get to work from home. The stress level of working from home is wonderful. I noticed that I was less stressed being in office. Hopefully that will continue for you. Enjoy it!
