I tend to get in wardrobe loops for work – sticking to a few outfits that I know work for me and rotating them throughout the month. I’ve decided that as it starts to get warmer, I can start to think outside the box a bit and dress up some of my more casual pieces, like chambray. I work in a business casual environment and while I won’t be wearing jeans to work anytime soon, I can add some color, patterns and accessories to jazz up an otherwise “boring” look.

As with any outfit you do run the risk of wrinkles and with chambray that does increase, but that’s why I keep my hair so long – just plop it to the front to hide the wrinkles…only half kidding!
Fun fact about these ankle pants – I own them in three different colors because I love the fit so much! I also love that they have a “stripe” down the middle.
This pursewas a crazy find at TJ Maxx a few weeks ago & I couldn’t believe my luck…it totally looks like this pricier version here…yep didn’t spend nearly that much! I have a fun “what’s in my Spring Tote” post coming up soon!

I love that this outfit can take me from meetings to drinks without having to change anything! How do you dress up business casual?
Totally loving this look girl! The chambray is so fun and I love that you dressed it up a bit with the pearls. That bag is gorgeous too! <3, Pamela Sequins & Sea Breezes
Love this look! My office is also business casual, although sometimes I do need to up it to business professional. This outfit is so put together and polishe!
Chambray is my favorite!!!! I have 3 different tops and I need a chambray dress to wear when I need something casual. Love your look!

Hellos classic cutie!! You know I love me some chambray and with the pearls, well it's divine perfection!! Gorgeous bag, beautiful locale and you know how to work the camera, lol!! Just gorgeous!!
Very cute! A fun twist for Spring. And YES to stopping for puppy pets! π
Such a cute look! I use my hair to cover wrinkles too, but in a different way… I use my hair straightener on my clothes! I hate to iron and it usually does the trick! Make today work, Rachel -CubicleCouture

My chambray shirts get worn constantly to work. I love pairing them with a pencil skirt & a pair of wedges. Perfect outfit for work & drinks after work!
I love chambray! I have a work shirt and a bigger shirt to wear with leggings.

Love that pearl necklace!! I'm such a sucker for preppy jewelry!

Gorgeous!! Obsessed with your necklace… definitely gives your outfit a fun "pop"!!
Super cute outfit! I love those heels!! That tote seriously looks just like the Valentino one too, great find!! That puppy is also adorable haha. π
I also work in a business casual environment and totally know what you mean about outfit ruts. I actually try to plan my outfits out the weekend before and hang them at the end of all my clothes. There are times I wish I took photos though, because I'm sure I've accidentally repeated outfits here and there. (; You look awesome and wow that bag!
Love this look! I struggle to find a chambray shirt that fits right on me. I'm also loving your pop of pink lipstick! It looks perfect.
I never even thought to wear my chambray top to work! Genius! The outfit you put together is perfect! Thanks for the tip!

Yes chambray and the wrinkle ability of it, laughed with popping you hair in front of it…..I mean another genius reason to always keep it long π That puppy looks adorable!
Love, love, love this look. You took such chambray and made it classy and sophisticated! What a great find, that bag is such a pretty color, perfect for this time of year! You look beautiful, Biana!

I have two different chambray shirts but have never felt like I could pull them off too well! You make this top (really this whole outfit!) look so cute! Love those sunnies too!
When I find a pair of pants I like, I am the same way – buy a few pair for back up.
I love you are sporting pearls. I am obsessed with pearls
Gorgeous! Love me some chambray! I also love your long hair comment! Haha long hair has its advantages for sure! Haha
love it! so glad you found one that works for you. fab find girl!
You look great in this outfit, perfect for the office or after work!
What an amazing find this purse is! Totally looks like the more expensive version, too. You look gorgeous, Biana! Love the chambray mixed with the pearls.

I love the look, Biana! The chambray shirt looks great paired with those lovely pants, which fit you perfectly; I can see why you purchased them in more colors! I also love the addition of the pearl necklace and that bag is such a great find, so trendy for spring and summer! Thanks so much for sharing, beautiful, and I hope you're having the best start to your week so far!

You look gorgeous! Love the chambray paired with pearls – such a fun combo! And it does look very dressy even though you could also wear that top with white shorts or something very casual and make it work too.
Love this look! Chambray + pearls is unexpected, but really does go together perfectly!
I love this outfit! I have Ann Taylor ankle pants too and they fit perfect!
You look so radiant Biana, loving this outfit!! The bag is so cute, definitely an awesome find π

I love this whole look. So glad you posted those pants, I am in need of some new for spring summer. I am the same way, if I like it I buy multiple colors!

Chambray is pretty much my favorite! I love dressing it up for work and your style is perfect for the office! How fab is that bag too??
Haha what a perfect photo shoot ending. I need to bust out the chambray more often at work. We're definitely more dressy than business casual, but the pairing of pearls with your look makes it perfect for my office!
I love chambray and you look fantastic in it! It really suits you! The attire at my office is business casual as well, so I could totally rock this look!
So cute. Love the accessories! The pearl necklace and those sunglasses are awesome.

Love this look and that purse is so pretty!!!! Love all the details and lines on it. I totally wear jeans to work, our office is very casual.
oh, I LOVE this look! So sophisticated!!!!! Esp with the pearls against the closed buttons. Now give me that puppy!
Such an adorable work look! Loving the chambray and that light blue bag is the cutest!

Love the look, I will have to copy it for casual friday! What a score on that tote! I love a good TJ Maxx find!
Absolutely LOVE this look! I'm so guilty of wearing the same ole, same ole to work. I need to mix and match better! π
Yes! I hands down agree with the having multiple colors, that's the only way I get through a work week. I have several different colors of the same dress and then multiple sets of dresses, add a blazer to that and it looks business casual, although our business casual is fairly casual, many people just wear jeans.
I love chambray too, but the wrinkles get me in the worst way! It usually starts out fine but over the day it just wrinkles, wrinkles, wrinkles!

hahaha at long hair being able to hide wrinkles– so true π LOVE that tote, it's the perfect color for spring and I love that necklace with your chambray top- it looks so good together!
Gorgeous!! I love the chambray top π I am so weird about wanting to keep "work clothes" and "day to day clothes" separate. Great look!
Such a cute outfit. I LOVE that necklace.

Love this look!! I just got my first ever chambray shirt a few weeks ago (I know, crazy!!) and I'm definitely looking for all the fun ways to style it. You are gorgeous, Biana!
Love this look, it's totally perfect for work and then you can dress it up a bit by switching up the necklace for dinner or drinks!
Gorgeous photos – you are stunning! Really love the look, but I know what you mean about chambray…I actually packed an iron for a recent getaway weekend specifically so I could iron my chambray shirt…looking back I think it was overkill π Also that blue bag does look just like the Valentino one – love!!
I love how you styled your shirt with that awesome necklace! Chambray is such a fun fabric to play with! I love wearing it on casual Friday too!
You look fabulous, girlfriend! And love that purse.. what a find π
xo, Kristina
The purse caught my attention and I definitely thought it was an expensive designer brand. Well, I would still count it as a pricey item to make room for in a budget, but no way in comparison to the other price XD.
Obsessed with this post! Your whole outfit is super gorgeous, and that pup is my favorite kind of puppy! So ready for us to get warmer weather and dress all cute!
