Fashion inspiration in the office: inspimirator

3 Sep

A couple of weeks ago I introduced you to one of my inspimirators: my best friend Soenita. She is really good at three things: 1 making lemonade, when life gives you lemons, 2 looking good effortlessly and last but not least 3 ALWAYS dressing up!

The purpose of these series is to inspire you to dress up for a cool look in the office and hey just a positive relaxation moment in between your hard work is included in the deal as well;).

Two weeks ago I wrote about the importance of a unique element in your job interview outfit and I promised I would pull some looks together for every corporate dress code which I described ( formal, business casual and casual).

Work outfit pictures: Sunrise at sunset

31 Aug

This work outfit is inspired by a conversation I had with my colleague last week. We were talking about cool colors and I mentioned how I love orange, and then she said: “but you never wear orange…” Errrr  yeah, totally true. And I also don’t own much orange things I can wear to work either, so I tried to compensate that a bit by this work outfit with my strapless orange top.

All pics after the jump!

30 Aug

Asos.com French Connection bracelet – € 15.88

As I’m the ultimate cheapo queen, and looking fashionable doesn’t mean you have to sell your liver in order to buy designer items, every Monday I put ten items together which are below € 30,-. The items I pick will always be fashionable and appropriate for the office.

Two weeks ago I did an all red Sheep Monday inspired by colleague C.,  and reader Stephanie gave me inspiration for some more themed Sheep Modays:D. So this week it’s accessory time!

So today I’ll share my new shopping cravings!

Work outfit pictures: You’re such a Tweet!

28 Aug

Every day I make a quick outfit picture in the morning with my phone (too early and too little time for normal pics;)) and post it on Twitter. If you still don’t have a Twitter account, this post is for you (although you should really join:P)! Also I like to look back on what I wore this week, maybe there’s a keeper outfit in it and I tend to forget really fast;).

I think I mentioned the harem / chino pants in a dozen posts and I just realized yesterday that I never wrote a post about this trend in the office! Now that’s what I call foolish and today it’s time to set that record straight!
