Being stylish on a daily basis to walk the open space or attend the endless meetings on Monday morning requires some basic skills. Here are the 16 essential pieces to have absolutely in his wardrobe to go to work.
Just a well-cut blazer over a loose-fitting white t-shirt and raw jeans to elevate your credibility in the office. Essential piece of the locker room of the working woman, it is chosen well structured, slightly oversized and double-breasted to maximize its effect.
Silk top, lace trim, beaded buttons or laval neck ... No need to make tons, a small elegant detail and voila.
Ideal for its sober and elegant look, the high waisted pencil skirt is your best ally for professional meetings or formal meetings. The right length? Just above the knee. It is chosen well adjusted so that it marries the silhouette without hindering the gait.
Some professional occasions require an extra stylistic effort: to wear pumps . The ideal? A sober black model, leather or suede, with a maximum height of 8 cm at the risk of finishing the day barefoot . Another option: kittens heels, less high but just as chic.
Unless you work on Wall Street, you will opt instead for a model of white shirt slightly loose that will leave carelessly out of the pants. Think of tweaking the details: rolled up sleeves and unbuttoned collar top for a chic but casual look. Once the rare pearl found, we fill his wardrobe with its variants: sky blue, fine pinstripes, with a lava neck ...
The jeans with holes or ultra faded are reserved for the weekend. The rest of the week, we adopt straight jeans or slim, the darkest possible, and we favor the high waist.
All the stakes of the boots lie in the height of the heel: neither too low, nor too high and wide enough to be comfortably installed in his shoes. Side materials, suede, smooth leather or varnish according to the desire of the day.
The choice of the material is paramount: think of a material which is well held and does not crease like for example the sheet of wool. Combined with a satin blouse or a big stitch in winter, the right trousers will bring just the right amount of elegance.
Hard to find more basic than the white t-shirt and yet it is essential to dressing workwear. We play the card of safety with a quality model in linen or 100% cotton, close to the body and at the neck in V.
Crossed at the waist, mid-long and fluid, the Diane Von Fürstenberg wrap dress is a timeless classic. Symbol of the independence of the woman, it allows an ease of movement and is perfect for the work. Be careful, however, to avoid country patterns and opt for neutral tones.
To invigorate his look we put on a small tweed jacket preferably variegated. And to break the too strict Gabrielle Chanel side , we will favor a model with frayed edges.
To get to work, the closet is left with shoulder bags or other shapeless models. A beautiful structured leather handbag will bring the finishing touch to your outfit.
Nerdy the whole? Far from it, provided you avoid the first degree of total black look . Back on the front of the stage after years of neglect, the pantsuit is pop, printed or colored ... into the open space.
Friday wear requires, white tennis is now tolerated in some professional circles. Make sure they stay immaculate at the risk of being overlooked.
For every morning where inspiration in the lurch, the jumpsuit is proving to be the best friend of paressesseuses. Easy to wear, regardless of age or morphology. The golden rule to remain credible in front of his colleagues: to flee the materials untied and cut-outs poor (backless, transparency, neckline notched).
The centerpiece of the winter look is a mid-length wool coat with elegant flap pockets. For colors, anthracite, camel, navy or black will work. Simple and efficient.
