But what I thought might be interesting is documenting what I wear to work - because I do like to put some effort into my ensemble. And I buy so many clothes I can't save them all for the weekends - what would be the point?
I know lots of people say they need more workwear and that the problem is that they find all their clothes end up being workwear, but if 1000s of fashion magazines have taught us anything, it's that there are ways to wear trends to work and not be sent an email about 'inappropriate' office wear. Some of my pieces are relatively new, so where possible I'll provide linkage so you may enquire about purchasing yoself.
I'm not including Monday, because apart from my 'I want to wear my oxfords with my skinny jeans' thought, there was no thought put into my outfit.

So I was aiming for a French chic look. And by French I mean a British magazine in the 60s' idea of French fashion. Oh, and Twiggy would have been the model. The striped top is fast becoming a staple and I knew the skirt would be perfik with it when I bought it online. Oh, and the cardigan - oh, my God, oh, my God, the cardigan. LOVE.
It's all a bit brandy and such, but it's mostly new, so if you like it it can be yours!
