    Today, we rounded up some of our favorite picks from White House Black Market’s WORKKIT selection.  Mix and match each piece with your existing work staples to create office-appropriate outfits.

    A chambray shirt is an essential to be added to your closet for this spring – it will look effortlessly fab whether paired with wide-leg trousers or a pleated A-line skirt.  These sparkly double hoops and bow accent pumps make for the perfect finishing touches.

    A polka dot print brings a playful edge to this jersey sheath dress.  Infuse other prints into the mix with accessories like these snake print pumps and a animal/floral print scarf.  Every working woman needs reliable yet stylish pants.  We love the  flattering bootcut and the soothing gray hue on these twill suit pants.  Go for a suit look by teaming it with a matching jacket.

    Stylish office outfits for the cold season

    winter workwearDressing well in winter can be so dull, after all so often winter collections are all about shapeless jumpers and being bundled in unflattering coats.  Even more so when you’re dressing for a day at the office.  Too often we fall back on boring winter staples and merely look ahead to spring.  This article will help you get back your winter style and spruce up your office wardrobe for the cold weeks ahead.

    Layering
    The key to dressing well in winter whilst still keeping warm is without a doubt layering.  It’s the perfect way to be cool enough in the office, toasty when you’re outside and ready for anything whilst still looking super stylish.

    You can still wear a stunning silk blouse to the office, you may think it’ll be too cold but just add a gorgeous cashmere cardigan for inside wear.  Then a tailored coat for when you’re heading out.

    Jumpers
    If the weather simply demands a jumper (and we must admit, they can be cozy) then choose an on trend smart style like an knit poncho, or a nipped in look with a slim fitting round neck.  Perfect with those wide leg trousers and your favorite statement heels!

    Pick your fabrics
    There’s no time like winter for adding a little luxury to your wardrobe.  Wool skirts, cashmere knits and oh so soft pashminas are all ideal for keeping you warm and getting that sumptuous winter style.  Accessories are the perfect way to complete your look, keep warm and get your style just perfect.  Add a stunning beret or beanie hat for your trip to the office to guarantee your winter chic whether inside the office, or on your way.

    There’s no need to get in a fashion slump just because it’s cold outside.  There are so many ways to look stylish and feel fantastic this winter, it’s all about how you wear it.
