The street-style scene provides endless inspiration for evening and weekend dressing, but those of us with office jobs can be hesitant to incorporate of-the-moment fashion pieces during the week for fear of looking unprofessional. Fret not: We’re here to prove it’s possible to channel these sartorial stars on a workday without appearing out of place. Ahead, three looks to adapt for your 9 to 5, and our tips for how to keep them work appropriate and fashion forward.
Pleated Skirt
Toughen up the feminine piece by pairing it with a leather moto jacket while keeping it professional with a crisp white shirt.
Navy & Camel
Keep this sophisticated color combo fresh by playing with silhouettes—team camel-colored culottes with a fitted navy sweater and cinch your frame with a wide leather belt. Top it off with a neck scarf for additional flair.
White Suit
A sleek white suit is playful with pops of pastel. Opt for a light blue gingham shirt and switch to candy-colored pink pumps when you arrive at the office. A neutral gray bag tempers the bright hues.
