We were hit with a summer cold Sunday afternoon/early Monday morning with both girls (luckily they tested negative for COVID) and having been cold/sick free for the past 18 months we had to remind ourselves of everything that used to work for us… chest rub, bath bombs for breathing, humidifier, nasal spritz… all that fun stuff… and all the while TJ and I are sitting over here taking Zinc and just hoping it bypasses us…. neither of us can remember what a sore throat feels like, and we’re happy about that. Yet, hoping our little ones feel better soon (Harper is out for the entire week of school per the school’s protocol).
All of that fun aside, I did something a little different for today’s post. Since most of my monthly capsule wardrobes are traditionally more casual pieces, with a few “dressier” items here and there for a day/night out, I decided to put together a capsule work wardrobe for fall. It’s been a while since I went into a traditional 9-5 office, but when I did our attire was business smart… denim was allowed (as long as it was tasteful and without distressing) which I was always grateful for. So I based this work wardrobe off of what I would have been able to wear (and what I would wear). I pulled 12 staple pieces that I think would be great for any 9-5 fall wardrobe and you can easily add in one to two pieces here and there, over the season, as you see fit. Maybe a silk camisole, another basic blazer, and maybe a v-neck sweater, or silk blouse. And, if your office is a little more formal, you can easily swap out the denim for a nice slack in a similar color and maybe swipe out the flats for a low heel in a similar color. I also included 28 outfits below!
I hope it helps any of you heading into the office this morning!
