My office is quite casual for a law firm so we typically don't wear suits unless we're going to court or meeting clients. I still like to dress up a bit though, so my usual outfits consist of silk blouses and pencil skirts. I'm also a huge fan of well-tailored dress pants like these navy wool ones from Theory. And can I just say how excited I am that J. Crew will be opening in Vancouver soon? No more dealing with missed deliveries for me!
Blouse: J. Crew / Pants: Theory (similar in black) / Belt: J. Crew / Shoes: Aldo
You look great! I'm always interested in how people dress for work.
ReplyDeleteSuch a great work look - I love the patterned blouse and the pants are so nicely fit/tailored.

Awesome outfit. Professional, but still fashionable!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE your makeup. Your outfit also looks super put together and nice! I need to start putting effort into my outfits for work too, otherwise it's like "which button up shirt should I wear today...??" LOL
ReplyDeleteThanks, Sheila! Gotta make use of my makeup stash on a daily basis or else I'll never finish anything!
DeleteI didn't know you were a lawyer! What kind of law do you practice? You might know my papa at Grant Kovacs Norell. Anyway, given that I know the whole law scene in Vancouver relatively well thanks to him, I think I can make a relatively well-informed assertion that you're probably the best-dressed lawyer in town. That second pic of you is beyond stunning, and seriously loving how fun yet professional this look is!

The legal world is so small! I've totally heard of your dad's firm! I practice in a very specialized area which I can totally tell you about when I see you :)
DeleteI am exactly the same way! I thought about it, and I never post my work outfits on my blog! But they're probably nicer than what I wear on a normal day, because they're more put together and dressed up! Love your outfit. Way to bring the floral trend into the office!
ReplyDeleteThat blouse is gorgeous. How much do you love Theory pants? Aren't they just the most well made slack around?
ReplyDeleteTracy
I am obsessed with Theory for work wear. Everything is so impeccably tailored!
DeleteNice blouse! Love the print. I like that your firm seem to have a smart casual dress code. I hope I work in an environment like that :D
ReplyDeletewooow...just so sophisticated and chic beyond words!! you tied in the blouse, floral print, belt, and trouser pants so well! Love how you took the photo in front of the red wall!

Love, your work look. It's so fashionable & pulled together/fabulous!! And goodness those pants are absolutely a perfect fit, love them! Aw, I so miss dressing up like this - I still try to but it's just not the same when you work from home. Hope you're having a great start to your week! xo
ReplyDeleteI love your top! Its great to pair plain black pants with a super fun top. Also loving the skinny belt :)
ReplyDeleteOooh, that blouse is just gorgeous!! I am also so excited about J. Crew coming to Vancouver!

Awww, thank you, Marisa!
DeleteYour work outfits are great! I love how cheery and colourful the top is and I'm excited for J. Crew to open. I should wear more professional clothes at work but it's so casual I feel overdressed when I do! But you've definitely inspired me :)
ReplyDeleteOoh I should try Paul's Omelettery and Caffe Barney. Let me know if you go to Red Wagon and how you like it!
I tend to always be overdressed but I kind of like it!
DeleteYou look simply amazing! :o)

I love a bright tie neck blouse!
ReplyDeleteI have to start featuring my work outfits as well, it's the reason I don't post personal style posts more often - You look great. The pants fit very well.
PS: How are Aldo shoes in terms of comfort? I need new work shoes - my Nine West are no longer cutting it, my feet are killing me!

They are kind of hit or miss for me. These ones are suede which are more comfortable but I find the patent leather ones too painful.
DeleteGreat slacks and print blouse, perfect!

I have been loving the bow blouse lately, it looks great.
ReplyDeleteWhere do you usually shop for pants for the office? I have such a hard time finding them.
Most of my dress pants are from Club Monaco. I also like Theory (on the pricey side though) and I stop by EXPRESS whenever I'm in Seattle for cheap ones.
Deleteperfect combination....amazing blouse...M*
