Workwear Wardrobe Refresh
DRESS (XXL) | SIMILAR SHOES | HOOPS (40mm)
Is it time for a little
workwear wardrobe refresh?
If you’re feeling uninspired by your wardrobe, you’re not alone! This time of year leaves me wanting more and lusting towards looking ahead at the spring and warmer months. This is when I encourage you to take a deep dive through your own wardrobe and perhaps even consider cleaning it out (if you do, be sure to check out my five tips for cleaning your closet). Now, more than ever is essential to focus on your wardrobe staples, you know, the evergreen pieces that you can continue to wear over and over again throughout the seasons.
I thought sharing a fresh dose of workwear inspiration, and a few of my personal go-to pieces would be helpful. At the bottom of this post, I’ve got a fresh batch of workwear essentials and some of my suggested retailers for shopping work-friendly styles. Of course, everyone’s idea of workwear can be different, so feel free to interpret and apply these ideas that work best for your lifestyle!

PANTS (16, R) | SIMILAR HEELS | BLOUSE (OLD J.CREW, LINKED SIMILAR HERE AND ALSO HERE) | EXACT DETAILS HERE
In case you missed it, I’ve previously covered a wide range of workwear-related topics on the blog I encourage you to check out after scoping out this post. I’ve shared my suggested retailers to shop blazers, a spring workwear refresh that included shared five back-to-the-office essentials, and a business casual guide, which includes places to shop more workwear finds if you've missed it. I've recently shared a post on spring tops and five spring outfit formulas that can quickly shift to be more workwear friendly with the swap of an office-appropriate shoe. I’ve also shared a list of size-inclusive retailers that may be helpful for your pursuit! Looking for shoes? I’ve got you covered with my most worn fall/spring shoes and a spring shoe refresh!
While I understand my job and business casual outfits may not relate to all, I figured I’d share a few of my recent looks within this post to get your creative juices flowing! I’ve linked all available details underneath each photo. Feel free to click on those to learn more about the looks!
