New Year, New Workwear: Our Back to Work Favourites

The new year calls for new workwear. As we transition back to work after weeks of leisure, an injection of fresh workwear will make you feel as good as new so that life is a little bit easier come Monday morning. That’s why we’ve curated a collection of back to work favourites to inspire your return to the office.

The collared blouse

A classic when it comes to corporate dressing, this blouse has been a hard-working piece in every working woman’s wardrobe for as long as we can remember. This season, it’s all about clean and classic takes on this workwear favourite. In monochrome black and white, this collared blouse was made to easily coordinate with your work wardrobe. With its sophisticated monochromatic striped print, ¾ sleeves and a waist tie for added definition, it’s not hard to see why this blouse is a back to work favourite.

The curve blouse

What better to inspire your return to the office after the holidays than a brightly coloured blouse? Vibrant hues are the key this season, and we’re loving refreshing shades of green that lift our mood. Pair this blouse with any of your monochrome separates and a pair of polished mules for an effortless look that lets the top shine. Whatever your work situation, the blouse is a versatile wardrobe essential you can always reach for.

The curve maxi dress

Sometimes stepping into the new year in style is as simple as putting on a chic black dress. And as far as we’re concerned, black dresses are a core classic in any work wardrobe as they play to the corporate dress code perfectly. When you don’t have the time or the energy to style separates, incorporate this piece into your usual workwear line-up.

A black maxi dress isn’t all work and no play. Feminine details such as floaty sleeves and pleating throughout the skirt instantly elevate it. Taking you from the office to off-duty with ease, simply accessorise with fine jewellery and add a swipe of bold lipstick for dinner and drinks after work hours.

The floral dress

Every year we turn to the tried and true favourite that is the floral dress - and this year it’s no different. Effortlessly office-ready, this one-step outfit is one you can depend on all through summer. Achieving the perfect balance between feminine and floaty, it comes to a knee-skimming length that is decidedly demure with a waist tie belt to flatter the figure. Show up in striking green with a contrasting white floral print throughout. A hard-working piece that seamlessly integrates into your workwear wardrobe, the floral dress is non-negotiable.

The suit

A new year calls for a new suit. When getting dressed for work starts to feel uninspiring and you’ve grown tired of monochrome tailoring, introducing a coordinated suit in a pop of colour is the perfect way to refresh your workwear rotation. Crafted in a beautiful crepe construction, the mid length blazer offers a comfortable fit with an open front, shawl lapel and welt pockets for a sophisticated look.

Set in a shade of light rose, we recommend layering it over the matching wide leg pants for a polished and professional outfit that was made for the busy, modern woman. Complete the look with a smart blouse and heels for a day of business lunches and important meetings. Come Monday morning, having a tailored suit will be the go-to that makes getting ready to take on the day effortless.
