Happy Monday friends! At some point over the last few years my closet staples have transitioned from more “going out” looks to things that could be worn to both the office and out with friends or a date night. I wanted to share 5 looks I wore over the last week. I’ll probably do this again in the Spring when the temperature allows me to play with some of my outfits a bit more! The only full length mirror in this post is from the bathroom at work – so apologies for that! To give some background, I work for a financial services firm in marketing / business development and while I have meetings daily, they’re internal so I can be a bit more business casual.
Monday
This ruffle top is sadly sold out at both J.Crew and Nordstrom, but I think the style is so popular it will be back in some form soon. I’m still as obsessed as ever with my Jessica Simpson animal print heels. I get a lot of questions about how comfortable they are for walking and I don’t know what kind of witchcraft they made these shoes with, but they are incredibly comfortable and I wear them for 9+ hours!
Tuesday
I’m really not afraid to wear patterns or bold colors and this leopard teddy sweater (sold out, but similar here) is a favorite of mine. I paired it with my scalloped ankle pants (similar pair here) and a skinny belt withpatent pointy toe heels.
Wednesday
This is actually one of my go to work looks. You may remember this look from Christmas and it’s one of my favorite work looks as well! The velvet pants really elevate the outfit. The top is an oldie from Ann Taylor (similar here), but again, theanimal print heels come in for the win!
Thursday
I had an event after work so I popped this new white house black market boot skirt with a plain black long sleeved top with my booties. My sister bought this skirt first and after seeing her wear it, I knew I had to have it! If I was going out I would have worn my taller boots, but for work I opt for my black booties.
Friday
I got a bit more casual on Friday’s to the office and opted for a chunky sweater that I bought in Ireland last year (similar here) with the sloan skinny fit pantsin red! The leopard flats are always a fun pop around the office!
I’m clearly a fan of the ankle cut pants and I just purchased these slim tie pencil pants from loft over the weekend!! I do have a ton of wrap dresses & skirts, but the week I was doing these photos happened to be one of our coldest weeks, so there was no way I could trek to work in tights! What’s your work style like?

Yes, I remember the Christmas outfit, those velvet pants are sensational. You have the best style! Happy Monday!
So many cute wear to work outfits. I love the skirt! I can see why you picked it up after seeing it on your sister! And of course, I love all the leopard! Happy Monday!

That sweater in your last outfit looks so comfy! I can't wait to see more of these posts!
Your outfits look great – pulled together, professional and stylish!
I love the variety! That leopard sweater, the scalloped pants, the pop of red- all so fun! Thanks for sharing all these great finds, you always look so polished 🙂
I always love a little pop of leopard! Such cute looks, and I love that you could just go on to your event with that skirt look!
This is exactly how'd I'd dress if I worked outside of the home. You clearly love leopard shoes as much as I do😉. Happy Monday!!! XO
i love this! i wish more people would share what they wear to work.. sometimes when i look on pinterest, it shows super ridiculous outfits or jeans/leggings.. all good and well for some offices, sure, but i can only wear jeans on friday lol. i absolutely love that sweater you got in ireland! so cute.
SO cute! You have to be the best dressed in your office!
I love every single one of these looks! I'm nowhere near as fashionable as you – you must be the envy in the office!
I can see why the ruffle top is sold out! I love that color on you!! I'm a fan of the ankle pant too, it's so flattering!

Ok I really love your work style! That leopard teddy sweater is gorgeous!
I LOVE this post! Love your style so much… it’s fun seeing what you wear during the week!
You are just the cutest & most stylish thing! I do good to even wear matching shoes to work 🙂 haha
I loved this post! You should definitely do them more often. That black and white look is my favorite!! So cute!
Girl, you look fierce! I love the look with the leopard print sweater.
You look great in every single piece!! I wish I had you nearby to tell me what to wear; I am not fashionable at all, haha. 🙂
I'm impressed with your heel wearing. I swear if I could wear sneakers to my office and get away with it I would 😉 I'm obsessed with that last sweater. Dang that Ireland buy! You look amazing and so put together. It's inspirational 🙂
Those are some great work outfits. I really like that first lace JCrew top.

I love how you styled these. I'm all about navy! Sometimes I miss wearing business casual, but it is pretty awesome to jump out of bed and put b scrubs on every day!
Nice to see a week's outfit that are really worn outside for work. The pink lace top and chunky sweater are for the win.

Love, love, love you're cute outfits. I would wear them all weather permitting…I have so many cute heels but always opt for flats for work, boring I know but I prefer comfort. I admire the ladies who can walk a full day in heels.
Ahhh, I love posts like this and LOVE all of the cute outfits you put together! I'm such a fan of classic looks but with a pop, like you added to so many. I have to admit, I miss getting dressed for work. 🙂 You look amazing, momma!
I love your work style. Casual yet very put together.

I love this post! It is so nice to see someone real sharing work outfits. By that, I mean, most fashion bloggers share their "work clothes" and they are wearing absolutely ridiculous things I would NEVER wear to work. Or ever. Or, they are dressed in jeans looking like they are going to a concert and not the office. We cant wear jeans at my office, it is very professional. But I could wear most of what you have on in these pictures. I struggle so hard with work clothes inspiration sometimes. Ann Taylor is Loft are my go to stores. I can only wear heels about once a week, the rest I have to do small wedge and flats. Old feet over here!
Ohh I wish I had every single one of these outfits! I think the boot skirt might be my favorite- I love how it looks with all of the black.
Your work style very closely mirrors my own, lady- love it!
