The Workaholics Summer Wardrobe

Helllloooooooooo!!! Okay so the other day i was getting ready for work and had a wardrobe crisis. I couldn't decide what to wear. It was like one of life's biggest dilemmas for me. WHAT DO I WEAR??? So i usually save all that drama for the night before so i don't waste time and end up getting late for work.  So all that drama inspired me to do this post. So here goes. Enjoy and let me know what you think

"Hey its okay if you have the tiniest office crush even if you are not single...A girl needs an excuse to dress up from 9 to 5." So here are some fashion trends that mean serious stylish business. 

1. Clutch Control!

Make your evening accessories work overtime with this envelope style clutch bag. Add a pop of colour to your neutral office outfit.
This is for £20 at Asos 

2.  Bright Now!!

2011 is the year of colour. Colour blocking is back and it’s bright - very, very bright - with designers such as Jil Sander, Prada, Christopher Kane and Louis Vuitton all pushing this trend.

Our top tip: If the thought of clashing primary colours and acid brights together is a little daunting, introduce colour blocking into your wardrobe by mixing accessories and one bright item of clothing with some neutral shades. For example, team cream chinos with a red blouse and a colourful belt. Metallic accessories will also look fabulous with these shades.

I would wear this blazer with beige or biscuit colour smart drape shorts or i would brave the brights with another block of colour. 

£34.99 at River Island

3. Play it cool!  


This playsuit is £45 at ASOS
Yes white is high maintenance but nothing screams promotion like this playsuit teamed with an eye popping Bright Blazer.  

4. Be Glambitious 

Ace that meeting with this two- tone quirky dress from Asos at £45.00
The black waist band helps show off your curves and the black & white colours make you look sharp & sophisticated. Team with a bright coloured clutch to make a striking impression and add some heels.  

Now tell me what are YOUR summer work wardrobe staples???

Get your hands on Miss Cole's Closet!

None of us can deny drooling over Cheryl Cole's outfits on the X Factor. So i'm sure you all will be very excited to know that you can now get your hands on her many dresses with a minimum bid of just 1p at the ASOS auction. Yes we had to pinch ourselves too. All proceeding will be going to the Cheryl Cole Foundation - which provides funds for The Prince's Trust in the north east.

 

For example this is a Phillip Lim 3.1 Ikat print Rompersuit that is available to buy at Asos. 

“I wore this during the auditions on the second year of The X factor. I remember this being very comfortable, it looks like a skirt but is actually shorts. I loved it as it is very summery” Cheryl 

So not only will you be doing your deed for the day by donating to a cause close to Miss Cole's heart you will also be looking good literally whilst doing it. WIN - WIN
