Hello my fab fellow fashionistas! Here is a little office chic attire to get your work week started.
My black BCBG pencil skirt was my favorite go-to piece when I used to work a 9-to-5 job. Even now, when I attend business events and conferences, I rely on my good ‘ole black skirt and mix it up by wearing it with patterned blouses, blazers and leather jackets.
For my upcoming event, I decided to give my skirt a little do-it-yourself “sexy back” by adding a visible gold zipper and a slit:
I paired my new and improved skirt with a floral top and a textured leather jacket in order to add some funkiness to the outfit (because, sometimes, you just need to bring the sexy to your work clothes ;)):

What sort of outfit makes your workweek “chic”?
Amazing skirt
Thank you ❤
Love what you’ve done with the skirt – definitely bringing sexy to your work clothes! Tight black skinnies and high heeled ankle boots are makin’ me “chic” in my workplace
Thanks. That sounds sexy. Your male coworkers probably can’t concentrate on their work with an outfit like that in the office 😉
That’s the point – then I can get them to do whatever I need! Cue evil laugh.
What a gorgeous look! I lobe the skirt! 😉
Thank you doll ❤
You are very welcome! 🙂
Love this! Modern and sexy! Love a good DIY project!
Thanks Patty and thanks for the share. xoxo
Seriously, you go with that sewing DIY! Awesome change!! It adds a nice edge to the outfit!!
very sexy and classy – love it!
Thank you ❤
That top and skirt are definitely work chic. I love your top. You did a very good job on the skirt, very sexy.
Can’t believe how a simple yet clever Zip can add a va-va-voom feel to such a classic piece ! The leather jacket brings an edgy feel too ! Workweek “chic” for me always includes my fave couturier (yeah, I’m so faithful to him that some peope even call me Mrs. Gaultier !!!). XXX
love how you gave the skirt new edge, such a fabulous idea!
chic and elegant outfit, yet never boring! super fab as always 🙂
xoxo
Thanks girls! xoxo
