Add WOW to Workwear: Street chic

Don't lose the excitement when it comes to dressing up for your 9 to 5. An easy addition of a statement piece can shake things up and up your style points effortlessly. Here, we show you how to work your week with five oufit options for making the streets sizzle.

MONDAY
Start your workweek with a clean slate. Save your navies and blacks for another day and dominate the boardroom by pairing a white top with a pair of khaki trousers. The wide legged high-waist pants give just the right amount of body to this sleek and light ensemble.

TUESDAY
Be fresh, fierce, and fabulous in a navy blue dress—a stylish contrast from your neutral Monday look. Elevate its understated elegance with a statement necklace, a pair of off-white wedges, and a structured earth-toned bag.

WEDNESDAY
Don’t let your midweek errands cramp your style. Rock a crisp white dress and layer it with a black vest for a classic corporate chic vibe. Commit to the black and white effect by accessorizing with a white satchel bag and a pair of black wedges.

THURSDAY
Add a bit of ‘70s to your Thursday office wardrobe with kick flare pants and a low-neck wrap top. Complete it with your choice of bling and a clutch for that sartorial on-the-go ensemble.

FRIDAY
End your busy week on a sweet note with an A-line dress in light hues. Your favorite pair of black pumps is the perfect accessory to tie the whole look together—adding the right kind of spice and ensuring you’re ready for the after-office girls’ night out.
