Office Appropriate

When heading back into a work week, I like to prep my outfits to ensure that they are clean, steamed and prepared for the possibility of a sleep-in, especially when a long weekend had just passed. I’m very selective when choosing appropriate outfits for work, as I want to ensure I have decent coverage of any bra straps and undergarments. I find that as my fashion taste has evolved, my style has become a bit more modest in terms of length, favouring midi to maxi rather than shorter hemlines for an office environment. I love the ladylike silhouette that this hemline provides, and it is flattering on basically everyone.

I think that this season’s best silhouette is the full skirt that falls at or below the knee. There is something so ladylike about this length and can be easily styled with so many different tops, everything from blouses to crop tops. This beautiful cream skirt is from Lord & Taylor’s line 424Fiftth, a beautiful collection exclusively carried in Canada at Hudson’s Bay. 424Fifth has been previewing their fall collection on Instagram over the last few weeks, and believe me, it’s going to be beautiful!

Here are two other amazing skirts, perfect for any occasion: Print Playlist, Spring Palette
