Work wardrobe

So, I have a new job! Finally, finally, finally I'll be contracted and saleried. It's only taken two years and it's still only part -time but things are finally looking up on the job front!

And what does this mean? Well, I will finally be able to upgrade my Mac and systems as my current model is being literally held together with Sellotape! But also, WORK WARDROBE!

As weird as this may sound I've long been a sucker for tailoring and for the art of introducing a little personality and style into one's working clothes. Also since both I and BF will be working six days a week, having oufits that flow seamlessly from day to night will be a necessity rather than bollocky bullshit mag talk.

So here's a few bits I have my eye on:

From Zara, which as you can see I will be nigh on ransacking as soon as the first paycheck is in.







 


A couple from Asos:









I think the best route is to have a mix and match approach to shapes and colours. But I hate the standard suits you get. I think it'll have to be a mix and match on those too. I'm channelling Amy Gardner from The West Wing I think: all slouchy trousers, spiky stilettos and cropped jackets.


There it is - I always struggle during summer however and summer in London is mostly unbearable so I think it'll be more floaty skirts and dresses during that time!
