Workwear Outfits/Staples 2021

I get a lot of requests for workwear outfits/inspiration and with talks of more people returning to their offices I thought I’d put together a blog post of things I’d wear to the office.

With workwear, I would stick to staple items that you can swap in & out over the week that go with most of your other items. Whether this is t-shirts in a variety of colours, a good quality shirt, your favourite pair of jeans or trousers and a simple dress; this should cover you whether you work part time in an office, or full time. I would also try and buy pieces I can wear for years without them looking dated or wearing badly, this may mean spending a little bit more, but it’ll save you from purchasing items every season. If I’m buying dresses as well, I would opt for ones I can also style & wear outside of the office to really get your cost per wear down.

For accessories, I think keeping it simple and buying things you can wear with multiple outfits really works & helps when you’re running out the door, as you know it’ll always look put together. I would wear either my Gucci loafers, or a nicer pair of trainers like Veja’s with most outfits to also be comfy on the commute. You can also wear your everyday handbag & use a tote bag for your extra bits, or invest and treat yourself to a designer leather tote bag for work.

I hope this helps, if you’d like to see a Youtube video styling workwear pieces too please let me know.

Love, Ruby x
