Three Work Friendly Outfits

October 8, 2014

Last week, I started my first week of my new job! It’s been pretty exciting but hanging my closet from casual to work appropriate has been quite the struggle. I will be sharing a few of my outfits to maybe inspire you if you are in the same position! I bought quite a few of these things when I was in Portland!

Option 1: Dress + Cardigan


Tip: Wear a cardigan in one of the colors in your dress! Finding a bright colored cardigan will be great to brighten up your day and your co-workers’ in the office!

Dress: Ann Taylor LOFT- Here
Cardigan: Urban Planet- Similar Here

Option 2: Dress Shirt + Pants


If you can’t find anything to wear, you can’t go wrong with a dress shirt.
Tip: Pick a pair of pants that are skinny cut and ends right above your ankle. I find this length/fit to be the most flattering to wear with flats! Heels always make you look better, but who really wants to wear heels all day right?
Dress Shirt: Banana Republic- Similar Here
Pants: H&M- Similar Here | Here

Option 3: Sweater + Statement Necklace

Tip: Pick a necklace that has a color that is very contrasting to the rest of your outfit. Since it’s such a small part of the whole outfit, don’t worry too much about matching. The necklace will help add contrast and interest to an otherwise average sweater.

Sweater: Old Navy- Here | Here
Necklace: Forever 21- Here

Of course, all this shopping leaves me broke and trying to find good deals around the internet. I recently bumped into a site called CupoNation which has coupon codes for different retailers. They have a bunch of coupons for ASOS which is exciting and I’ve been online window shopping on ASOS now! They also have coupons for hotels.com which I wish I knew about because I used hotels.com to book my hotels for Portland! If you like looking for coupon codes when online shopping, you can see if there’s anything for you on their site!

Hopefully this was interesting and informative for some of you :P.  It’s definitely an interesting time for me right now transitioning into a “lady” with my new job.

Where do you like to go for your work clothes? What’s your go to office wear?

🫎🍁 Don't miss this LIMITED EDITION release from @t 🫎🍁 Don't miss this LIMITED EDITION release from @tatcha! Inspired by the changing fall colors of the Japanese maple, this beautiful kissu lip mask now has a berry red tint. I love the moisturizing squalane and Japanese peach extracts. My dry lips have never felt so hydrated and soft. Definitely give this a try if you're looking for a smooth and plump lip with a hint of color. 

🍮 The packaging is also stunning with the maple motifs on the lid that makes this display worthy in any bathroom or vanity!

It has been a minute since posting 😅 the first two It has been a minute since posting 😅 the first two weeks with a newborn have been full of challenges and adjustments. But it's nice to take a break and go through some of my beauty products as a break 🤭.

Here are my top three face creams for the changing weather especially if you have dry skin!

Swatched from left to right: clarins, drunk elephant, aestura 

👌  moisturizing face creams for dry skin

Clarins Extra Firming: I love the day and night version of this cream. The night is even more heavy duty and creamy so sometimes I use the day version only 💫

It's got a beautiful scent and amazing collagen technology to plump the skin!

Aestura Atobarrier Lotion: this is a newer korean brand thats available now at Sephora. Part of the amorepacific family, so you know it'll be good!

The packaging is very simple and unassuming but I love how this soothes the skin! Its quite lightweight in texture but I used this when I was sick and it saved my nose after blowing into tissue a gazillion times a day! 🩵

Drunk Elephant Bora Barrier: im always a big fan of drunk elephant. This one is my favorite face cream from the brand. I love the pump packaging and this is perfect if you want hydration and barrier support!
