Wear 2 Work Wednesday: Naughty or Nice
On Saturday, I showed you a look that was functional for running errands. I also encouraged that you can always looked pulled together even on your most casual days. As discussed on Saturday, the key to that is pairing your work tops with casual bottoms. Today, I decided to show you how those two tops can translate into two totally different work-appropriate looks. Withs so many companies downsizing, we often find ourselves wearing multiple hats in the office. Sometimes depending on the colleague, boss, or client we have to either charm them or intimidate them. And if your office is schizophrenic like mine, these roles can change on a day to day basis. So on those days you have ask a colleague to help you on a project, embrace a non-threatening lady-like silhouette (no one would ever suspect you are going after their job). Think Michelle Obama--pop of color, bold print, kitten heels, and classic jewelry with a modern twist (the strands of pearls shown below are intertwined with chain links). On those days when the claws must come out and you want to let your client know you will get the job done, go for a more androgynous silhouette. The dark colors and the long, lean lines (the length of the pant, height of the shoe, and deep-v neckline of the vest) exude power; and every one around you will know you mean business. The on trend sheer blouse commands that you are still a lady, and will be treated as such! In other words...lets just say...you are the the dominatrix of the office (and the killer booties to kick some butt don't hurt). This is why I love fashion. Clothes tell a story about the person. Clothes can even lie for you, and make you whomever you want to be. The two tops from Saturday whether worn together or separate can give you three distinctly different looks.
