When you wake up and it’s freezing cold, it can be a bit of a task to decide what to wear to work. Although I may not have a dress code for what I do, a lot of my dearest friends face the same struggle; what do I wear into the office today? I’ve come up with a stylish office outfit that I hope you’re going to love; No more confusion about what to wear to work in the winter!

When you think of work you don’t necessarily think of trends but you’ll be surprised about how easily you can work some of your favourite winter fashion trends into your look. Plaid, houndstooth and tartan are all winter classics and all look incredibly chic. Ditch the black skinny jeans or plain black trousers and instead opt for a patterned pair. I picked up these dark blue tartan trousers from the Sandro sale. I love that the pattern is subtle.

I paired this with a grey turtleneck from Sandro as well (another great sale purchase!). This turtleneck is a total classic piece but what makes the whole look more interesting is the neck detailing. I love classics with a twist! I would also pair these trousers with a plain white ribbed turtleneck and a blazer. Finally, I added in a pair of white boots; a simple yet effective way to make your outfit stand out!

In terms of accessories, I’m wearing vintage Givenchy earrings that I found in a store in Amsterdam and my favourite Louis Vuitton bag. I get a lot of questions about this bag and how much it can fit. Let’s just say I can pretty much fit my life in it! I also added in my new Chanel sunglasses. I’m obsessed with the retro vibes!

If you live in a warmer country but want to recreate this look, I would still opt for patterned pants like these and instead pair it with a white t-shirt or with a white blouse; a white shirt with oversized sleeves would look fabulous! If your office is a bit more casual you can even throw in a pair of white trainers!

Would you wear this to the office?

We’ve all had those mornings when we haven’t decided what to wear to work, we’re running late and we suddenly stare at our closet full of clothes and think, “I have nothing to wear” (note the Sex and the City reference? I’m almost done with all the seasons!) With autumn very much here and winter hinting that it’s closer than we think (it’s something like 70 odd days to Christmas?) trying to figure out office outfit ideas only gets more and more challenging. Recently, a lot of my girlfriends have been mentioning how much harder it is to decide on a cute workwear outfit when it’s cold outside. That’s why today I’m going to be sharing a quick and chic outfit formula that you can always fall back on, no matter the morning.

When I’m in doubt, I always reach for a combination that is tried and tested; high waisted trousers and a chic sweater. This combination might sound simple but it’s an outfit that just keeps giving. What I love the most about this formula is that you can repeat it almost every day and it will still look different. On one day you can go for a totally tonal look like I have here with beige and white (or any two colours, depending on the colour of your trousers). On another day, you could mix your high waisted trousers with a fitted turtleneck, and on another day you could throw in a burst of colour with a patterned sweater or oversized knit. Do you catch my drift?

It always helps to have an outfit to fall back on, almost like a uniform that you know you will always look chic in but don’t forget about your accessories! Although for work you may want to swap out this bag for a more subtle one and ditch the beret, you can still add in some dainty necklaces and some gold earrings. Don’t be afraid to add a touch of personality and shine to your look. I guarantee you’ll be the most stylish woman in the office!

Is this an outfit formula you could fall back on for work? Where do you look for work outfit ideas?
