I’m loving the new take on workwear this spring – fresh new twists to traditional pieces, like the button down, and bold changes to workwear, including structured lines, draped slacks, classic updated silhouettes, and retro-influenced dresses in vintage-inspired styles and patterns. Remix your work wardrobe with versatile florals, ginghams, eyelet and prints in colorful hues. Or opt for a monochromatic spring take on the common suit. Mix pieces you already own with new ones for a modern touch. Need a little more inspiration? Here’s my take on 5 budget-friendly, fresh new work styles for spring.
Look 1 – Wear a floral blouse with ankle pants in beige, flats, mules, or heels in a neutral tone, and a spring peacoat in mauve.
Look 2 – For a more monochromatic feel, pair a baby blue blazer with light blue slacks, a seersucker striped top and blue suede mules. Or add a simple white tee instead.
Look 3 – A classic, cap-sleeve dress is perfect with a light-weight cropped or long cardigan and heels.
Look 4 – Pair sailor pants in navy with a linen blazer in white, a flutter-sleeve top and slip-ons in red.
Look 5 – Put on something bright like this crisp, cotton (and wrinkle free!) sleeveless dress in yellow with fun embroidered pumps.
