Today I'm sharing how I wore this blush cardigan and a lace top to work and for the weekend. The whole outfit lends itself to recreating from work to weekend.

Good morning. Hope your week is going well so far. Today I'm showing you how I wore a sweater and neck scarf for work and play.

Coral and grey spring office outfit

Happy Monday! I've had a nice relaxing weekend, and it's time to get back to work. Spring is finally here, but we are not sweating yet, and I'm not complaining. I'm sharing a coral and grey office outfit with you today. It's bright and cheery and perfect for the office during the Spring season.

Why and how to shop second hand online

I recently purchased this scarf from Poshmark. I needed something with some red to bookend outfits when I wear these red shoes. After exhausting my search at thrift stores and other online and in store retailers, I turned to Poshmark. It's actually something I should do more often. 

How to wear a colored blazer to work

I guess I could have picked something different for today's post, since I just posted a similar color rain coat on Monday. However, I actually wore this teal color blazer to work back in February.

I have a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore

Back to work in blue

Baby, blue ain't your color

Blue looks good on the sky, looks good on that neon buzzin' on the wall, but darling it don't match your eyes (Keith Urban lyrics). 

Spring vibes and subtle pattern mixing

I announced a couple of weeks ago that I was finished posting winter outfits and would be moving on with spring stuff. I also spent a whole day about a week ago cleaning out my closet and relocating fall/winter items to the guest bedroom and bringing spring and summer stuff to the master closet. Well... Mother Nature has her own mind and own way. We had temps in the 30's to 60's all last week. So where did I go to get dressed? To the guest bedroom. I know those sound like spring temps to some of you, but trust me, that's winter in south Georgia.

9 to 5 Style - Trench coats

Welcome to 9 to 5 Style! The third  Monday of every month Jennie of A Pocketful of Polka Dots and I will showcase a theme featuring our individual takes on a professional look. Our aim is to inspire and show professional style does not have to mean boring and without personality. We hope you enjoy our 9 to 5 Style!

This month's theme is trench coats. I featured them in my "5 Spring Jackets You Should Consider" post. They make a great spring layer for those of you that still need the layers in spring. For us, it is usually warm in the spring (83 degrees on Sunday as I prepare this post) so I don't own a trench coat. I do, however, own a sleeveless trench that allows me to have the same vibes without being too warm, so I have styled my sleeveless trench for you. ( If I were to get a regular trench coat, I'm swooning over this gingham trench.)

Classic black suit with stripes

A classic black suit should be in the closet of every business woman or woman who works in a professional office environment. When I don't know what to wear to work, or don't want to think about it, my black suit is my go to. This one is one the verge of needing to be replaced. It has seen a lot of wear. I've posted many outfits with it, but also refrained from posting it many times. Sometimes it seems too boring. But sometimes it's  good to have a reminder that it's okay to dress in classics.

I picked this blouse up on a whim a few months ago, but hey, it's stripes! And it adds a new twist to my black suit. I can't find it online now, but I've linked up some options.

My favorite work cardigan

Two ways to wear leopard print to the office

Leopard print has become an accepted neutral. It's earthy tones pair well with most other colors and it's also a great pattern for pattern mixing. It can also easily be worn to the office, even a conservative office like mine. The key is in picking structured, classic pieces. Here are two ways to wear leopard print to the office. 

9 to 5 Style - Ultra Violet

Welcome to 9 to 5 Style! The third  Monday of every month Jennie of A Pocketful of Polka Dots and I will showcase a theme featuring our individual takes on a professional look. Our aim is to inspire and show professional style does not have to mean boring and without personality. We hope you enjoy our 9 to 5 Style!

This month I chose the Pantone Color of the Year Ultra Violet as our theme. I won't say it's my absolute favorite color, as I can take it or leave it, but I thought you might like to see some ways to wear it in your work wear as the color of the year always seems to receive lots of hype. 

Back to basics

Adding some color

Rust and teal seem like such a wild card pairing, but apparently The Limited thought it worked when they added this blouse to their line.

Work to weekend: One cardigan, Two ways

Today's work to weekend look is all about a long burgundy cardigan that I originally bought as a weekend piece. I've recently been rethinking it, and I decided it would be a great work piece too.

Winter neutrals

A combination of neutrals always works. I paired camel and black here for a work outfit.

Work to Weekend: One Piece Three Ways

I'm back again with another Work to Weekend post. This time I'm featuring a blue tunic blouse that until recently I've only worn to work. It's a versatile piece that can transition to other outfits, so lets take a look at three ways to wear it.

Polka dots, pinstripes and pearls

Happy Thanksgiving! It's time to bring on the turkey and pumpkin pie. I hope you have some time off to relax too. Our work always gives us the Friday after, and I'm beyond thankful for that extra day. If you do have to go back to work soon, then maybe this outfit will inspire you to play a little and relax your attire just a bit. I paired polka dots and pinstripes for a playful office look. Some faux pearls keep it polished.
