Work outfit inspo
An oversized rugby shirt may not seem like the obvious thing to wear to work, but as long as it's brand new and worn with knee-high boots, most offices *should* let you get away with it.

The trouser suit is an office wardrobe staple
Add some seasonal zing to the look by choosing a set in sweet sorbet or pastel hues. If you're feeling extra keen, why not team your co-ords with contrasting colour accessories like a headband or handbag?

Two ways to wear a shirt in the office
One shirt, two ways. Wear your fave collared top with a trouser suit or, alternatively, layer under a strapless dress and shrug a blazer over your shoulders.

Affordable and stylish workwear ideas
We're talking: smart dresses, tailored blazers, sleek trousers... You get the vibe. But just because your office (likely) has a dress code, that doesn't mean that shopping for 9-5 clothing has to be a total snooze-fest. On the contrary, some of my favourite fashion pieces were originally bought for work and have now transitioned into my smart-casual weekend wardrobe.

The best work clothing brands you need to know
Finding work clothing brands that are both affordable and, well, stylish, ain't always easy. Of course, we’ve been gravitating towards a much comfier work look during the hybrid WFH life we've been living (i.e the exact same sweatshirt and leggings suited to our kitchen counter set-up). But for days we're in the office, be it part or full-time, pulling together actual work outfits can feel a little daunting!

Shorts can be office-appropriate outfit
Shorts don't necessarily have to be... short! Just above the knee is far more office-appropriate, and bang on trend too. Opt for buttery leather styles in neutral shades for ultimate versatility.

Floaty white dress is great as an office outfit
Floaty white dresses are always a good idea in the summer – just make sure they're made from an opaque cotton to avoid any awkward flashing moments. The vintage-style collar on this dress adds an element of formality, while the leopard-print bag keeps things light.

Cool and creative work outfit
We can totes see this look on someone who works in a cool, open-plan creative office somewhere in East London. Hiking boots are a trendy alternative to trainers – and the funkier the better! The perfect colour pop addition to a classic black skirt and white tee combo. And the plaid shirt as a jacket? Genius.

Maxi cotton shirt-dress is a chic option for a work outfit
While we'd love to rock up to work in nothing but a crisp white shirt à la Carrie Bradshaw, that's just not going to cut it in most offices (understandably). A maxi cotton shirt-dress is a chic alternative. Just add nude undies to be on the safe side...
