Women’s fashion is always changing and ever evolving. When it comes to building your professional wardrobe it may seem like a daunting task but it doesn’t have to be dreary or drab. Fashion should be fun! Sure there are more rules associated with dressing for work – you certainly don’t want to bring your Saturday night style into the office Monday morning – but finding office appropriate pieces isn’t really all that difficult. I promise!
Mix and Match
Choosing pieces that you can mix and match is always a fantastic idea! Since you wear the items in your professional wardrobe more than any of your other clothes, you want to make sure to keep your look fresh! Filling your closet with items such as – slacks, skirts, blouses, sweaters, jackets and blazers will give you many options to choose from each morning.

If you are bored with your style chances are that others will be too. Exploring your closet and coming up with different combinations is fun. And in case you are wondering yes, you can wear your favorite diamond bracelet to the office. Seeing that sparkle will make you smile all day long.
Accessorize
Finish off all your outfits with stunning accessories like metallic or colorful belts – and don’t forget that adding a tennis bracelet can really jazz up the entire ensemble. Stylish accessories play a big part in helping you to express your personal style. Think about it, if you select some of your key wardrobe pieces and put them on, they will no doubt look very nice but if you add some fun accessories, you have really kick things up a notch.

If you have dinner plans after work no problem, make a few accessory changes. Throw on some stilettos and stack some diamonds bracelets on your wrists, you will be ready to go!
Choose Your Shoes
The right pair of shoes can really complete an outfit. Boots with tights and a skirt are a very popular and office appropriate look. It’s also totally stylish. Ankle boots are a hot trend right now, as are just about any kind of heel.
If you are on your feet a lot but still want to wear heels be sure to bring a pair of comfortable and fashionable flats to change into if your feet start to hurt. This is also a good plan when breaking in a new pair of shoes. Of course, flats have come a long way and you can find some delightful designs with stunning embellishments.

See? Dressing professional doesn’t have to be a bore – you can still be really creative and express your personal style.

Trench coats are one of the best pieces in your fashion arsenal to flaunt your style sense during cool, rainy days. We love the way Laura Bailey (British model, writer and mother) mixed the pops of colors – vibrant yellow and green with her classic trench. The look is unexpected while entirely fresh. Stepping out in a pair of chic wedge booties doesn’t hurt either, literally. These Brits sure know how to spruce up their trenches!
The key to pulling off the brights is to balance with the neutrals – grays & tans for the neutrals in this case. We put a few pieces together for you to achieve a similar look, for less of course!

 Scarves serve as both a functional & fashionable accessory. Being bundled up in a scarf can give you just about as much warmth as wearing a cardigan. In fact, they are one accessory I like to carry with me when I’m on the go because I can easily tuck them in my purse and then get to it quickly when a big chill rolls in.
Simple scarves can highlight even the most drab basics and instantly give you that “Is that a new outfit?” attention just by adding different scarves. Like ice cream toppings – a little variety is always fun!
From lightweight silk to cozy wool, check out these shops for a collection of chic scarves – Nordstrom, Kohl's, and Saks.
Lately we are swooned with leopard-print scarves in various colors & prints. A fantastic way to spruce up knits, dresses, sweaters, jackets, and even suits. The sky is the limit! This season, try faux fur scarves for added warmth and a sassy style.
