Cocostyling – Office dress code

Cocostyling – Office dress code

Hello my darlings,

this post is especially dedicated to those girls who have finished their studies and are going to enter the working arena.

I have prepared a couple of very basic sets to cover one working week with a low budget (every item costs less than 50$). Some of these items, like tops, ballerinas, or black pants are likely to be already in your closet, leaving you with the choice of a couple of versatile blazers and a grown-up’s dress.

If you care for more outfit ideas or personalised tips on this topic, do not hesitate to get in touch via private message, or share your questions in the comments below, or on twitter / facebook.

    As a working woman in Washington, DC I can honestly say that I wear all of these things on a daily basis, except perhaps the nail polish – I usually keep my nails in a nude color, but then again, I work with politicians so our dress codes are slightly stricter. Anyways, great post!<br /><br />xo Deborah<br /><a href="http://coffeeproseprettyclothes.blogspot.com/&quot; rel="nofollow">Coffee, Prose, and
