Fall/Winter Looks

Desk to Drinks

One of my favorite ways to make your closet work smarter instead of harder is to put together ensembles that can satisfy multiple occasions. Whether it be outfits that work for both work/play, weddings/brunch the morning after, gym/errands; it’s all good. I no longer work in an office, but when I did and I knew I had an event after work, I would always try to put on something that would feel good all day. A pencil skirt, feminine blouse, and functional bag are key pieces in this look that work well for an all-day affair. The skirt is professional but still fun because of the print and the clutch is great for daytime essentials, like your keys and wallet, but transitions nicely to evening to hold your phone and lipgloss. The heels aren’t too high so are comfortable to wear for a long day. This outfit would even be great for a classy Valentine’s day date! All in all, you’re sure to impress at the office and after hours in a look like this!

Coat: Nordstrom (under $30!) // Skirt: LOFT (similar here + here + here) // Top: NY&Co (super similar here) // Heels: old (nearly identical here + here) // Necklace: Stella & Dot // Sunnies: Ray-Ban // Rings: Stella & Dot // Watch: Michael Kors // Clutch: Gigi NY

    Ah! Snow leopard is my favorite kind of leopard. Pairing it with blush was a great idea, you look great!

    Agreed that this is the perfect look to take straight from work to a happy hour! It's totally appropriate for the office and then the cheetah print makes it so fun for a night out.
