what I wear to the office / melanie liliana

blazer: h&m // top: aritzia // pants: aritzia // shoes: zara // bag: rebecca minkoff c/o shopbop // watch: caravelle new york c/o bulova

As most of you know, along with being a style blogger I work in an office Monday to Friday.

I love dressing for work, I find it really fun and also challenging to come up with outfits that are true to your style but also appropriate. I'm lucky that my office isn't super corporate and I have some freedom to dress on trend. With that being said, I usually dress pretty classic with a pop of something fun. I loved the colour on this blazer the moment I saw it and I knew it would be perfect for work but also great with some boyfriend jeans and sneakers. The best part was that it was only $39.99! Gotta love H&M!

Along with your outfit, accessories are super crucial at the office. I love when I see someone who isn't afraid to show off a statement necklace, bag, lip colour or watch. On a typical day, I'm usually wearing something pretty fun in the accessory department. This watch by Caravelle New York is literally one of the most beautiful watches I've ever seen and had! It's my first all black watch and I love how it has a kind of masculine vibe but stays feminine with the beautiful sparkly face. Along with my blazer, this one doesn't break the bank either... but it looks like it does! (which is always fun right?).

What do you wear to the office? Do you have the freedom to express your style?

Ps. Cheers to a shorter week! woo hoo!

Not many people can pull off that color but you certainly can! xo

The only reason I miss my office job is the creativity it used to inspire in my outfits! Haha! When no one sees what your wearing, it's hard to put the effort in. I think that style is like a muscle that needs exercise to be in top shape, I'm afraid mine is beginning to atrophy! Thank goodness I have fashionable friends who keep me inspired ;).
