A casual work outfit doesn’t have to mean loungewear. Whilst it’s amazing to lounge around in your pyjamas every once in a while, you should try to look ladylike and put-together whenever you leave the house.
The best foundation for any smart-casual work outfit has to be a buttoned-up collared shirt. Our shirts are anything but bland, full of country-themed patterns to add some personality to your outfit. The base of every shirt is cream, white or light blue to maintain that ladylike look. These shirts are so versatile that they’ll go with everything from jeans and chinos to tweed skirts and workwear trousers.
Speaking of tweed skirts, they’re the ideal bottom-half items for a casual work environment. They’re comfortable enough for every day in an office environment but are smart enough for meetings and events. Keeping the rest of the outfit neutral makes the tweed skirt stand out more as the focal piece. You’ll look professional in any setting with a tweed skirt on.
To finish off the outfit, you’ll need a pair of smart shoes. We love brogues and loafers for a more formal look but if your office is a little more casual, a pair of knee-high boots still look smart. Whether they’re patent or suede, knee-high boots will elongate your legs too. Just make sure they’re always clean and use a leather protectant or waterproof spray on them regularly.
Need to accessorise the look? A leather bag is both practical and stylish. A long-strap cross-body bag could be your go-to bag if you’re the type of woman who doesn’t carry a lot of stuff. If you take the kitchen sink to the office, perhaps a tweed tote bag will be more of the right size for you. The full-zip closure ensures all of your things stay safely inside as well as the multiple internal pockets.
