Wow this week seems to be on fast forward, I can't believe we're already on Thursday!! Another busy one in the office today so I'm keeping it pretty simple & teaming my favourite grey jeans with a bolero style jacket.
Jacket - Next
Top - ASOS
Jeans - Zara
Boots - Oasis

Now for my style steal I couldn't find the right coloured styled jacket to re-create today's outfit but I've found an equally stunning one in cream, which would look gorgeous when teamed with pale greys.

Top - ASOS £30
Jeans - ASOS £60
Boots - Boden, currently £83.30
Necklace - Banana Republic £35
I think it's safe to say that while I don't have to wear an actual 'uniform' for work, the majority of my daily outfits are based around my own imposed uniform of jeans (be it boyfriend or skinny) teamed with a jacket & either a statement necklace or scarf to bring my look together.
For me this is a combination that works best for my job & lifestyle as well as meaning I'm able to wear the type of clothes I love & most importantly enjoy wearing. Not to mention that it gives me a mix & match wardrobe from which I'm able to create different outfits......and this has got me thinking, do you have to wear a uniform for work to do you like me give yourself your own imposed wardrobe that fits with your lifestyle & day? Or maybe you don't have a particular look or style but prefer to swap & change between many?
I'd love to hear your thoughts.
See you in the morning.
Looking fantastic as always Jane. I seem to go for jeans and jacket combo , but trying to mix it up a bit lately. Blog looks great xx
ReplyDeleteAhh thanks Amanda, I do wear a few dresses & skirts but seem to go through phases...although come the warmer months then I'll definitely be wearing more. Loving your new haircut btw :-)

I don't think I have a style that I stick to. One day I do dresses because I feel girlie and the next boyfriend jeans and boots. I like having multiple personalities :-)!!!
ReplyDeleteLol Fiona. And yes I'd agree I suppose it's all down to what mood someone's in as to what they decide to wear on the day....oh & of course the good old UK weather!!!

I have a uniform. It involves a range of breton tops and a couple of pairs of joggers! Other than that I can be found in my actual work uniform, hence I don't dress up much xx
ReplyDeleteYou can't beat a breton Sharron & of course one of the benefits of an actual uniform is not having to think about what to wear of a morning!!

Well with me it is jeans, jeans and more jeans. You look lovely today. x
ReplyDeleteThanks Helen & there's nothing wrong with a pair or 20 of jeans ;-)

I prefer skirts & dresses for work & all spring/summer long. Winter I go with chinos or thick tights with dresses so yes I suppose I do have a uniform!
ReplyDeleteIt's funny isn't it Lou, I think when we stop to think about it we all definitely have a comfort zone that we stick to the majority of the time. Although it's always nice to wear something a little bit different every now & again too!

Love the outfit that top in fab!
ReplyDeleteThanks Kerry, it's a great top for hiding a multitude of sins!!!!

I'm a jeans girl through and through Jane! Wish I got the opportunity to dress up a bit more! xx
ReplyDeleteYou can't go wrong with jeans can you Michelle, just great for dressing up or down :-)
