Trina

Silk blouses have always been a good friend of mine. They’re reliable throughout seasons and always have that easy, comfy, chic feel. I wear this Trina Turk silk blouse with peach jeans in the spring and with JCrew Minnie pants at the office year around. Let’s move to outfit enhancement now.

Flats are a must-have in my bag. Blush flats are a must-have on every girl’s closet. You can get them pretty much everywhere but why pay $100 for flats you’re going to wore out in less than a year right? Mine are from Payless (under $20) and they look and feel great.

My LAMB bag was another bargain I got a few years ago at Loehmmans. Michael Kors oversize gold watch, House of Harlow 1960 Chelsea sunglasses, Stella & Dot bracelet and Forever 21 rings and JCrew belt completed my outfit. The top knot has become one of my favorite accessories for two reasons: it’s soooo easy to do (it takes me less than 2 minutes and keeps me out of trouble when I’m running late for work) and always looks classy.

Simple Black

There can be many black dresses in your life not just the one. Especially when it comes to work outfits. I love black dresses whether to go out or to go to the office, they’re always a classic piece and you can dress them up and down depending on the accessories you have. Take this black H&M dress for example, I have had it for a few years now and it’s still going strong. It’s a bit shorter than what I usually wear to work but I usually wear it with flats or tights in the fall when I go to the office. If I’m going to a happy hour though, I bring the heels on (Zara).

Also on this shoot: LAMB bag, House of Harlow 1960 Chelsea sunglasses, Mint Julep clover earrings, Michael Kors oversize gold watch, Stella & Dot bracelet, Forever 21 bracelets. Here’s a little trick that has helped me take good care of my clothes throughout the years: I keep dry-cleaning plastic covers and cover my clothes with them. The plastic covers keep my clothes like new, cover them from dust and when I unwrap a dress, it feels like it’s brand new. My organized self plus the bags have helped keep some clothes for over 10 years, crazy right?

Light it Up

JCREW pretty much rules my work wardrobe. I love it, it’s so classy, chic and it just fits rights! I find myself using its clothes for all types of occasions, so easy to mix and put together great outfits. This outfit is one of my favorites, I can wear it to the office and to go out, isn’t it great when you can wear the same outfit for two different places?
