Dressing for a business casual office is uncharted territory for me. ?I wake up, want to put on a suit and can’t. ?Jeans are also a bit of a minefield, since all the guys in the office wear khakis. ?So let’s see if we can’t find our way through this together. ?Maybe with some white denim…
This outfit blends denim into the outfit in a way that feels chic (and maybe a little glamorous?) and more dressed up. ?So here’s how we build this outfit.
Blazer. A great black blazer is a wardrobe staple. ?Banana Republic’s gold-button blazer is my current favorite. ?If you want something a little sleeker, try this wool flannel blazer from J.Crew or this one from Cuyana.
Need something under-$125? ?Mango has a great blazer. ?Plus-size? ?Try this MM. LaFleur blazer.
Sweater. Sadly, I couldn’t find a turtleneck sweater with that wonderful waffle pattern on it. ?Instead, I chose this ribbed cashmere turtleneck from Banana Republic. ?I love the voluminous neckline. ?For a steal, try this Everlane turtleneck.
Need a cotton sweater? ?Me too, late in life allergies are fun. ?Try this Cloud Turtleneck or this Barbour sweater.
Jeans. White denim looks as good in the winter as it does in the summer. ?The NYDJ Marilyn Jean is my favorite, more straight than skinny. ?They have a similar style available in plus-size.
Shoes. Slingbacks are in right now. ?Since everyone has switched to flats, this is a way to make flats feel more special. ?These Jack Rogers are a delicate, sleek example. ?The Danica slingback is also a great choice. ?Wide feet? ?Try these ASOS flats.
Not loving slingbacks? ?Mary Janes are actually a nice option. ?Journee Collection makes a nice one. ?I also like the Mary Jane Rothy’s.
Accessories. This Rachel Zoe bag is awesome. ?I love the olive color with the black and white color palette. ?I adore the tassel detail and the minimalist hardware. ?And at <$30, it’s a great buy.
To finish the look, I chose these bezeled gold studs from Wolf & Badger. ?And I picked these unique Ray-Bans for a little something different.
